"Farmers still had 116 million acres of combined corn and soybeans left to plant as of May 19, far more than they ever had on the date. The previous high was 91 million acres in 1995." ecowatch.com/climate-crisis…

The irony

The cost of #renewable energy has tumbled even further over the past year, to the point where almost every source of green energy can now compete on cost with oil, coal and gas-fired power plants forbes.com/sites/dominicd… #EnergyTransition

The honest answer is that I don't know the precise math. I believe controlled burns produce less CO2 than wildfire, per acre, but if the prescription is ten times more fire, as Stephen Pyne suggested to me, presumably that would produce a meaningful increase of CO2 release.

What worries me about this approach, otherwise unimpeachably wise, is that carbon emissions from California wildfires already wipe out, each year, all the gains from the state's climate policies. And to be safe the state might need ten times more fire. nymag.com/intelligencer/…

Malaysia is sending back 3,000 tons of non-recyclable plastic waste to “rich countries” of origin like US, UK, Canada. It became a destination for plastic waste after China imposed a ban — leading to massive dumps and hazardous illegal recycling plants.

A fantastic report on climate injustice by @BillWeirCNN. One inconvenient truth is that rich old whites don’t have much to worry about. twitter.com/cnn/status/113…
