The Pandemic Remade Every Corner of Society. Now It's Climate's Turn
Recognition is growing that climate change is the challenge of our time. That understanding has begun to reshape everything across our society and economy

"If anything, the lack of a clear set of climate plans that might be considered in a post-Trump era just means there’s an even wider range of possibilities for businesses to prepare for," writes @JustinWorland time-magazine.visitlink.me/f…

More than anything, writing this story left me thinking about the social ripple effects. Climate change doesn’t need to end civilization for it to represent an existential threat to the texture of communities—by extension our social fabric. @JustinWorland

'Climate change may not be an existential threat in the sense that it will kill us all, but it is existential for the cultural fabric of communities' - @JustinWorland on the money here...

I've covered climate at @TIME for a decade. This year, I spent much of my time reporting on the fire that destroyed my hometown—and my own childhood home
The result: a story of LA's recovery—and a warning of what happens when systems break down

Two things can be true at once
Climate change doesn't cause disasters but rather is context that can make them more likely—along with mismanagement and other human error
If only people would engage in a bit of critical thinking rather than serving partisan narratives

Of course TIME Magazine would finagle arson and the criminal negligence of Democrat politicians into a paean to the myth of climate change. They are so utterly ridiculous.
The reservoir was empty, the fire was set by an arsonist, the hydrants were useless, you nitwits!

Sharing this week’s new @TIME cover: THE AFTERMATH.
Nearly a year after the L.A. wildfires devastated his hometown, TIME’s @JustinWorland reports on the recovery efforts through multiple trips to Altadena, the Pacific Palisades, and the places in between where decisions are being made. His reporting captures how communities are navigating the realities of climate disaster response.

I spent a week in Georgia over the summer reporting on how rising electricity bills in Georgia was fueling this race
It’s an indicator of what may come elsewhere as electricity demand surges across the country—and voters face higher prices

We've just added shift from 2024 to our Georgia Public Service Commission maps.

In Georgia, a political storm is brewing over ballooning electricity bills.
The fight is just the beginning as electricity prices become a national issue with implications for climate change, AI and the broader economic landscape.

From iron ore to green energy: Billionaire Andrew Forrest is investing $6 billion to transform his mining giant Fortescue into a climate champion. Electric trucks, green hydrogen, and a fossil-free future by 2030 - he's proving that sustainability can be profitable. A must-read from @TIME's @JustinWorland for anyone interested in the future of business and our planet.

“I consider it as a prism. Every public policy can be viewed through that prism,” he says. “You can measure public policy by whether it exacerbates or mitigates the crisis, and make decisions based on that.” Great article on @petrogustavo by @JustinWorland @TIME

Colombian Pres @petrogustavo has made big climate promises: vowing to end Colombia's reliance on fossil exports and weighing all policies through a climate lens.
He calls his philosophy "decarbonized progressivism." For it to work, others need to follow
