Climate models are an important way (but hardly our only way!) to understand how the climate is changing. We've been making them since the late 1960s, and they have done remarkably well in projecting the warming that actually occurred in the years after they were published: pic.twitter.com/KNOk2DsaM4

NEW: In @ScienceMagazine today, our latest peer-reviewed research shows Exxon scientists predicted global warming with shocking skill & accuracy between 1977 & 2003, contradicting the company's decades of climate denial. THREAD.

Wow, Attorneys General of New Jersey & Minnesota say our new peer-reviewed study showing Exxon accurately predicted global warming boosts their efforts to hold the company accountable for its decades of climate denial. Great reporting by @olliemilman: https://t.co/ZS9q31vTq6

Last week someone sent me dozens on internal documents from a fossil fuel trade group.

They reveal a massive greenwashing campaign that aims to convince Americans that propane (a fossil fuel) is good for the environment.
The campaign has already reached 300m+ people.

Global temperatures have increased by around 1.2C since the late 1800s. About 0.8C of that is due to CO2 emissions from fossil fuels.

Here is the amount of that warming each country is responsible for based on their historical fossil CO2 emissions: pic.twitter.com/LGIMpUsZdR
For the last 9 months, The Guardian analyzed projects from the biggest carbon offset provider in the world.

They found "94% of the credits had no benefit to the climate."
Some of the biggest corporations in the world are using these offsets to claim they are "carbon neutral."
I work in renewables. Carbon offsetting and net zero are huge cons. It's accounting, bookwork allowing huge corporations to spew CO2 emissions whilst "offsetting" them somewhere else. The only way to stop the planet burning is to stop fossil fuel extraction, not incentivise it.

Entre 1945 y 2000 la población mundial se triplicó, el consumo de agua se cuadruplicó, la captura de animales marinos se multiplicó por 7 y el consumo de fertilizantes por 10. Asimismo, el mayor crecimiento poblacional: Sur global y las mayores tasas de consumo: Norte global.
