<b>'Nothing to Do With Climate Change': Conservative Media and Trump
Align on Fires</b><br>
Rush Limbaugh and Tucker Carlson dismiss scientists' determination
that climate change is a key culprit in West Coast wildfires.<br>
By Michael M. Grynbaum and Tiffany Hsu<br>
Sept. 15, 2020<br>
<br>
Rush Limbaugh told millions of his radio listeners to set aside any
suggestion that climate change was the culprit for the frightening
spate of wildfires ravaging California and the Pacific Northwest.<br>
<br>
"Man-made global warming is not a scientific certainty; it cannot be
proven, nor has it ever been," Mr. Limbaugh declared on his Friday
show, disregarding the mountains of empirical evidence to the
contrary. He then pivoted to a popular right-wing talking point:
that policies meant to curtail climate change are, in fact, an
assault on freedom.<br>
<br>
"Environmentalist wackos" -- Mr. Limbaugh's phrase -- "want man to
be responsible for it because they want to control your behavior,"
the conservative host said on the show. He added that they "want to
convince you that your lifestyle choices are the reason why all
these fires are firing up out on the Left Coast."<br>
<br>
Hours later, that message leapt to prime time on Fox News, where the
host Tucker Carlson said those who blamed climate change for the
fires were merely reciting "a partisan talking point."<br>
"In the hands of Democratic politicians, climate change is like
systemic racism in the sky," Mr. Carlson told viewers. "You can't
see it, but rest assured, it's everywhere, and it's deadly. And like
systemic racism, it is your fault."<br>
<br>
Mr. Limbaugh and Mr. Carlson are two of the most prominent
commentators in the right-wing media sphere, where a rich history of
climate denialism has merged with Trump-era cultural warfare to
generate a deep skepticism of the notion that climate change is a
factor in the fires devastating the West Coast...<br>

<b>How breathing in wildfire smoke affects the body</b><br>
Experts say the chronic impact of smoke from longer-lasting, more
frequent wildfires could have serious health impacts.<br>
<br>
BY SARAH GIBBENS AND AMY MCKEEVER<br>
SEPTEMBER 15, 2020<br>
<br>
For the more than seven million people in California's Bay Area
living through historic wildfires, it's been hard to breathe for the
past month. For 29 days the region has been under a "Spare the Air"
alert, which means inhaling outdoor air presents a health hazard.
Air quality is even worse in Oregon and Washington, and by this
morning smoke had stretched all the way to the East Coast and even
to Europe.<br>
<br>
Wildfire smoke contains a variety of gases and particles from the
materials that fuel the fire, including ozone, carbon monoxide,
polycyclic aromatic compounds, nitrogen dioxide, and particulate
matter--pollutants linked to respiratory and cardiovascular
illnesses, according to a study in the Journal of the American Heart
Association.<br>
<br>
When a healthy person breathes in air tinged with smoke from the
fires, they may feel a sting in their eyes, and when they cough,
they may have trouble recovering their breath. But what happens to
that same individual when they breathe smoky air for extended
periods every year is still unclear.<br>
<br>
"People were once exposed once or twice in a lifetime," says Keith
Bein, an atmospheric scientist at the University of California,
Davis. "Now it's happening every summer and for longer."<br>
In the United States, air quality is measured on a color-coded scale
known as the Air Quality Index (AQI), which was established in 1977
as part of the Clean Air Act. Stretching from 0 to 500, the AQI is
split across six categories--from good to hazardous. Its scale
measures the levels of five major pollutants: ground-level ozone,
carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and particulate
matter.<br>
<br>
State and local agencies in cities with populations over 350,000 are
required to report these levels daily. The pollutants are measured
both by instruments on the ground and satellites that constantly
collect information about what's in the atmosphere--including the
particles from wildfires.<br>
<br>
Impact on the human body<br>
"We know pretty well it causes eye irritation, cough,
wheezing--people with asthma are more likely to have an episode,"
says Irva Hertz-Picciotto, director of Environmental Health Sciences
Core Center at the University of California, Davis.<br>
"Wildfire smoke is a very complex type of air pollution," says Sarah
Henderson, an environmental health scientist at the University of
British Columbia. "It has many different gases in it, and the
composition of those small particles can be highly variable,
depending on what's burning [and] how hot it's burning."<br>
<br>
Of particular concern, she says, is particulate matter 2.5 microns
in diameter--also referred to as PM 2.5. Those small particles, and
ones even smaller, are capable of penetrating deep into a person's
lungs. Henderson says the body responds by releasing the same immune
cells it would deploy to attack a virus. Unlike a virus, however,
particulate matter isn't broken down by that immune response and
results in long-lasting inflammation.<br>
<br>
"That inflammation affects your lungs, kidneys, liver, and probably
your brain," says Henderson.<br>
Wildfires are a growing health threat--15 of California's 20 worst
fires have occurred in the past 20 years, and Henderson says more
evidence is needed to show exactly how wildfire smoke affects organs
after long-term exposure.<br>
<br>
"We don't have a clear understanding of what the health effects are
on an unborn fetus, but systemic inflammation in a woman who is
pregnant may affect her unborn baby," adds Henderson.<br>
<br>
When wildfire smoke enters the airway, the tiny particles that it
contains--which are about 30 times smaller than a human hair--can
get lodged deep in the lungs and injure the lining. The body kicks
into gear to dispel the foreign invaders, triggering spontaneous
reflexes like coughing that helps cilia, the little hairs lining the
cells of the airway, tbeat the particles out.<br>
<br>
But the immune cells can't break down the particulate matter--which
only makes them work harder to try to defeat it, resulting in even
more inflammation, says Stephanie Christenson, assistant professor
of pulmonology at University of California, San Francisco.<br>
<br>
Inflammation can be a good thing for fighting off invaders. But
Christenson says it's especially dangerous for anyone with
underlying conditions such as asthma or COPD, both characterized by
inflammation. Additional inflammation can exacerbate those diseases.
"It's a really delicate balance before you can go overboard," she
says.<br>
<br>
With those diseases, it can be harder to get much-needed oxygen to
the rest of the body. As oxygen enters the lungs it heads to the
alveoli--tiny air sacs that form a thin barrier between the air and
blood--and passes into the blood in the capillaries. When the body
is fighting off a threat, those air sacs can fill up with mucus so
that air cannot pass through, Christenson says. This also makes it
more difficult for the body to eliminate the carbon dioxide, which
can also cause respiratory distress.<br>
<br>
There's some evidence that the particles themselves can break
through that barrier in the capillaries, getting into the
bloodstream and causing an inflammatory response throughout the
body.<br>
<br>
While respiratory problems may be the most overt response to smoke
inhalation, others are less obvious. In 2018, a study in the Journal
of the American Heart Association found that smoke from the 2015
wildfires that scorched more than 893,000 acres of California was
associated with cardiovascular issues and problems with blood flow
to the brain in 361,087 emergency department visits between May 1
and September 30.<br>
<br>
Karol Watson, professor of medicine/cardiology at the David Geffen
School of Medicine at UCLA, links that to the proximity of the heart
and coronary arteries to the lungs. Watson was part of a team that
conducted a 2016 study published in The Lancet that looked at the
effects of a variety of pollutants in six U.S. cities and discovered
a link between high levels of air pollution and coronary disease.<br>
<br>
Underlying conditions again are particularly worrisome when it comes
to the damage wildfire smoke can inflict on the heart, Watson says.
Heart attacks happen when the plaque building up in the arteries
ruptures, and while Watson says researchers don't believe the
particulate matter causes this buildup, it can destabilize existing
plaque, causing it to rupture.<br>
There's also some evidence that air pollution can trigger irregular
heart rhythms, Watson says, although there's less known about why
this might happen. It's especially difficult to study air pollution,
she says, noting that her team's 2016 study required them to place
monitors in households across the U.S.<br>
<br>
"The trauma people go through may also affect their immune systems,"
says Hertz-Picciotto. "When you're driving with flames on both sides
of your car, and your tires are melting and you're not sure you're
going to make it out--definitely when you lose your entire home--the
stress of rebuilding…I can see that playing a role in the massive
amounts of stress on top of COVID."<br>
<br>
Potential to worsen COVID-19<br>
According to the Centers for Disease Control, exposure to wildfire
smoke can prevent a person from fighting off respiratory diseases
like COVID-19.<br>
"Higher air pollution is associated with respiratory effects and
people being more prone to having respiratory illnesses," says
Hertz-Picciotto. "To the extent that the immune system is
compromised and cannot fight off viruses, air pollution exacerbates
that."<br>
<br>
One study recently published in the journal Environmental
International found exposure to wildfire smoke in the summer
correlated with three to five times more flu cases later in the
year.<br>
<br>
Tarik Benmarhia, an environmental health scientist from the
University of California, San Diego, notes that the same populations
of people who were more vulnerable to COVID-19--those with low
incomes, pre existing conditions, and poor access to health
care--may also be vulnerable to the impacts of wildfires.<br>
<br>
A 2017 study in the American Journal of Epidemiology found that
elderly Black people who are more likely to live in urban areas,
where there is persistent air pollution, were more likely to be
hospitalized from exposure to wildfire smoke.<br>
<br>
Emerging threats in the suburbs<br>
In addition to the health impacts, discovering exactly what people
are breathing in is also an emerging concern among scientists.<br>
<br>
Wildfire smoke was once primarily made of the earthy remains of
fallen twigs, brush, and trees, but as wildfires increasingly blaze
through suburbs, they're burning up the synthetic paints, carpets,
and consumer goods that fill homes. In California's historic 2018
fires, 19,000 homes burned, compared to this year's 4,000 so far.<br>
Bein says samples of wildfire smoke over the past five years show
that for as many compounds in the smoke they can identify, there are
even more that they can't.<br>
<br>
"I don't think we've had resolution on the exposure side to see what
all those chemicals are and what happens when they combust at very
high temperatures," says Hertz-Picciotto, "nor do we understand how
those health impacts might differ."<br>
<br>
How to protect yourself<br>
The CDC recommends staying indoors to avoid wildfire smoke.<br>
<br>
HVAC systems can help purify air inside a home, as can air purifiers
for a single room.<br>
<br>
"If you have a room you can keep cool, close the windows, doors,
then run a portable air cleaner with a HEPA filter," says Henderson.<br>
<br>
It's important to not add to indoor pollution by cooking with gas,
frying food, smoking, or even vacuuming, says the CDC. If forced to
venture outside, the CDC also recommends wearing an N95 respirator
tightly fitted to your face: COVID-19 surgical masks and other
homemade face coverings won't protect you from the smoke.<br>
<br>
"At the end of the day there's only so much you can do," says Bein,
emphasizing that long-term planning must attempt to mitigate the
kinds of fires currently plaguing Californians. New policies around
prescribed burns as well as where homes can be built, and what sort
of features those homes should come with are solutions stakeholders
need to tackle, Bein says.<br>
<br>
"I think that's going to be one of humanity's greatest challenges,"
he says. "Not just wildfires but all the extreme events resulting
from climate change. We are entering a new phase of reality we just
can't reverse."<br>

According to new data from the Rhodium Group analyzed by ProPublica
and The New York Times Magazine, warming temperatures and changing
rainfall will drive agriculture and temperate climates northward,
while sea level rise will consume coastlines and dangerous levels of
humidity will swamp the Mississippi River valley.<br>
<br>
Taken with other recent research showing that the most habitable
climate in North America will shift northward and the incidence of
large fires will increase across the country, this suggests that the

<b>Facebook and Google announce plans to become carbon neutral</b><br>
Firms join Apple and Microsoft in committing to put no excess carbon
into the atmosphere<br>
Alex Hern<br>
15 Sep 2020<br>
Facebook and Google are becoming carbon neutral businesses, joining
competitors Apple and Microsoft in committing to put no excess
carbon into the atmosphere, both companies have independently
announced.<br>
- -<br>
"Over the next decade, Facebook will work to reduce carbon emissions
from our operations and value chain," the company said in a
blogpost, "including by working with suppliers on their own goals,
helping the development of new carbon removal technologies and
making our facilities as efficient as possible."<br>
Both companies' claims follow similar announcements from Apple and
Microsoft. In January, Microsoft led the way, announcing a plan to
become carbon negative by 2030, and to remove all of its historical
emissions by 2050 – the goal Google says it has achieved today,
although Microsoft was already 23 years old when Google was founded
in 1998.<br>
<br>
And in July, Apple announced its own plans to become carbon neutral
by 2030. For Apple, that meant not only its entire supply chain, but
also the lifecycle of all its products, including the electricity
consumed in their use. The company will plant trees equal to the
estimated lifetime carbon emissions of the electricity used to
charge iPhones, for instance.<br>
<br>
"The innovations powering our environmental journey are not only
good for the planet, they've helped us make our products more energy
efficient and bring new sources of clean energy online around the
world," Apple's chief executive, Tim Cook, said alongside the
announcement.<br>
<br>
The latest announcements place Amazon at the distant back of the
pack. In 2019, the company revealed a then-ambitious plan to achieve
net-zero carbon emissions by 2040, and to use 100% renewable
electricity by 2030. But the company's vast logistics network is a
significant hurdle not faced by its competitors: the company has
purchased 100,000 electric delivery vehicles, but deploying them to
the road will not be complete by 2030.<br>

[Finally, a first baby step]<br>
<b>Facebook gives in to pressure on climate-change myths --
including that antifa started deadly wildfires in western states
-- with new 'science-based' hub</b><br>
Published: Sept. 15, 2020 at 10:09 a.m. ET<br>
By Rachel Koning Beals<br>
Urged by lawmakers and others, Facebook's steps on climate change
follow similar moves for information sharing on COVID-19 and voting<br>
<br>
Facebook, long targeted by critics for allowing misinformation on
global warming and other environmental developments to populate
users' social-media feeds unchecked, announced it will launch a new
information hub to provide "science-based information" about climate
change.<br>
<br>
"Climate change is real. The science is unambiguous and the need to
act grows more urgent by the day," the company FB, +2.35% said in a
release announcing the hub's rollout Tuesday after months of
increased questioning of the climate-change denial posts it allows
on the site under the cover of allowing editorials.<br>
<br>
Now when users search for information related to climate change on
Facebook or when certain posts related to the subject pop up, so,
too, will a link to the Climate Science Information Center. On it,
users will find data and commentary from sources including the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the U.N. Environment
Programme, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the
World Meteorological Organization and the Met Office, among others.<br>
<br>
The announcement comes just days after emergency responders in the
Pacific Northwest had to fight misinformation on Facebook running
counter to efforts to evacuate citizens in the line of the deadly
wildfires. Wildfires are sparked by a variety of factors, but
scientists increasingly point to climate change in contributing to
the intensity and frequency of these events. The Facebook hub's
launch -- in the U.S., U.K., France and Germany to start -- also
comes ahead of the high-profile Climate Week, a conference to be run
virtually next week by the United Nations and New York City.<br>
<br>
It's a position shift from a social-media giant that as recently as
August offered push-back to mostly Democratic lawmakers seeking more
action on behalf of truthful information.<br>
- -<br>
In addition to the information hub, Facebook said it will continue
to reduce the distribution of posts containing false information on
its News Feed feature and will label such posts as false. Facebook,
however, says it will not remove the posts, and it was also not
immediately clear how the company will deal with posts within
private groups believed to contain information contradictory to what
increasingly is mainstream adoption of the still-evolving science
around man-made acceleration of climate change.<br>
Facebook has set its own goal, similar to those of many tech giants,
to achieve net-zero carbon emissions and be supported fully by
renewable energy in its own operations.<br>
<br>
The steps on climate change follow similar moves for the company
surrounding information sharing on COVID-19 and voting in a
presidential-election year. So far, Facebook says that over 2
billion people have been directed to resources from health
authorities by its COVID-19 response...<br>

[Digging back into the YouTube archive of Rachel Maddow]<br>
<font size="+1"><b>On this day in the history of global warming -
September 16, 2009 </b></font><br>
<p>On MSNBC's "The Rachel Maddow Show," former fundamentalist
Christian Frank Schaeffer explains right-wing science denial:<br>
<br>
"…[T]he mainstream--not just media, but culture--doesn't
sufficiently take stock of the fact that within our culture we
have a subculture which is literally a fifth column of insanity
that is bred from birth, through home school, Christian school,
evangelical college, whatever, to reject facts as a matter of
faith… [W]hat we're really talking about is a group of people that
are resentful because they've been left behind by modernity, by
science, by education, by art, by literature. The rest of us are
getting on with our lives. These people are standing on the
hilltop waiting for the end."<br>
<br>
Further, Schaeffer noted:<br>
"You don't work to move them off this position. You move past
them. Look, a village cannot reorganize village life to suit the
village idiot. It's as simple as that. And we have to
understand, we have a village idiot in this country, it's called
'Fundamentalist Christianity.'<br>
<br>
"And until we move past these people--and let me add, as a former
lifelong Republican, until the Republican leadership has the guts
to stand up and say it would be better not to have a Republican
Party than have a party that caters to the village idiot--there's
going to be no end in sight…<br>
<br>
"There is no end to this stuff. Why? Because this subculture has
as its fundamentalist faith that they distrust facts per se. They
believe in a young Earth, 6,000 years old, with dinosaurs
cavorting with human beings. They think that whether it's
economic news or news from the Middle East, it all has to do with
the end of time and Christ's return. This is la-la land.<br>
<br>
"And the Republican Party is totally enthralled to this subculture
to the extent that there is no Republican Party. There is a
fundamentalist subculture which has become a cult. It's fed red
meat by buffoons like Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and other people
who are just not terribly bright themselves and they are talking
to even stupider people. That's where we're at. That's where all
of this is coming from.<br>
<br>
"And it's becoming circular. It's becoming a joke.
Unfortunately, a dangerous joke because once in a while, one of
these 'looney tunes,' as we see, brings guns to public meetings.
Who knows what they do next. It's a serious thing we all have to
face, but the Democrats and sane Americans just have to move past
these people, say, 'Go wait on the hilltop until the end, the rest
of us are going to get on with rebuilding our country.'"<br>
<br>
He concluded:<br>
"Look, in the year 2000 I worked for John McCain, to try to get
him elected in the primaries instead of George Bush. But John
McCain sold out by nominating Sarah Palin who comes directly from
the heart of this movement and carries with her all that baggage.
So, he sold out. I don't see anybody on the Republican side of
things these days who has the moral standing to provide real
leadership, or who will risk their position to do so."<br>
