Ohio U.S. Rep Bob Latta (Dist. 5) claims China influences Ohioan anger about data centers. @sabrinaeaton @clevelanddotcom: bit.ly/4ehIvq8
Wrong. Radical-right disinformation runs through MAGA circles, playing on low-information voter fear.

Kelp forests are among the most diverse habitats on Earth. But climate change, poor water quality and overfishing have damaged up to 60% of them in the last 50 years.
We look at what’s at stake and how to protect the ocean’s kelp 👉 bit.ly/4vHzuh8

We need to hear more from @SherrodBrown on this.

Big Tech bro-ligarchs like Sam Altman stand to profit hugely from unregulated growth of the AI industry, so it’s no surprise that they’re investing heavily in swaying federal policy decisions 😡 This is one of many reasons why we need a nationwide halt on ALL new data centers!

This past week more incredible details were uncovered about Ohio's massive tax break to the world's richest tech corps AND the GOP's refusal to do anything about it. In this ICYMI, we discuss when Amazon, Google & Meta signed their giant tax breaks and how long they will last.

Former @NatlParkService head: @USDA wants to rescind “Roadless Rule,” selling federal lands to highest bidder for logging and development.
But few things unite Americans like their love of the land. Charles F. Sams @guardian: bit.ly/4equTKp

Guess it's not enough to frack Ohio state parks and public land for data centers.
The feds want to frack Wayne National Forest, too-- Ohio's only national forest. Tell them NO!

Climate change received only .55% of U.S. news media coverage over the past 40 years. @YaleClimateComm: bit.ly/43z19ot
58% of Ohioans worry about climate change and climate warming, compared to national 63% average.

The world-- and Ohio--must phase out fossil fuels.
Ohio is already behind. 92.5% of all energy added to the global grid in 2024 was renewable. It's cheaper than coal, oil & gas, reliable and planet-friendly.
Be climate heroes, not villains.

In the North Atlantic Ocean, south of Greenland and Iceland, a large patch of water is doing something very strange. While the rest of the ocean heats up, it's been getting colder. A new study says it has the answer to this mystery — and it's an ominous sign the world is hurtling toward one of the most alarming climate tipping points. cnn.it/4xpS2nQ

The environmental toll of the artificial intelligence boom continues to mount as tech companies use ever more power to run their data centers and use enormous amounts of water for cooling. A new investigation by U.N. scientists warns that AI's water use in 2030 will match the needs of 1.3 billion people, while its power use will be triple that of Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nigeria combined — countries with a total population of 650 million.
"Most people understand AI as a digital technology, as a virtual thing, as something that is in the clouds," says Iranian environmental scientist Kaveh Madani, director of the United Nations University Institute for Water, Environment and Health. "What we tried to do in this report was to remind people that there's some physics to all of this."

Anduril's Lattice--developed in Columbus-- can now successfully kill by AI-- no human decisions required.
It received $848 M in Ohio state subsidies in 2025.

Ohio AI policy is nonexistent.
@ThomasGnau @VFPNational
ALT Anduril received $848 million in Ohio state subsidies in 2025 — 99 percent of all such subsidies issued nationally that year — to build Arsenal-1, a five million-square-foot manufacturing campus in Columbus. Ohio taxpayers are substantially invested in Anduril’s growth. (Photo courtesy of Jason Salley)

Angry about lawmakers fracking under our state parks and public lands for gas likely to run polluting, hyperscale data centers?
Channel your anger into action. Tell @GovMikeDeWine to veto SB 219-- it allows fracking INSIDE state parks. bit.ly/4uvnkqE

Interesting that @jrockstrom wrote this for @ChinaDaily, not @WSJ or @wapo or @nytimes?
What does this say about the global scientific community's confidence in U.S. to help mitigate the worse effects of climate change?
Don't let us fall further.

At a time of growing geopolitical fragmentation, it is increasingly difficult to imagine the UN forging the same broad consensus around a new global development framework that it did with the SDGs, which end in 2030. I'm thinking about what comes next.

Ohio governments, too, are selling themselves off to data center developers.
Why trust @ohiogop majority to do the right thing for Ohioans?

30 years ago, the Bland family sold 87 acres of farmland to the Texas Parks and Recreation Foundation for $10 with one stipulation in the deed: the land must be turned into a public park in Williamson County.
Last year, the city of Taylor, Texas, sold that land to the data center developer Blueprint for $10 million. The Bland family's dream of creating a community hub will be erased for a 135,000-square-foot data center complex.
From Blueprint's $1 billion data center project, Taylor is projected to generate $30 million in tax revenue over the next decade.
Despite public protests, Taylor, Texas, said on its website that there was no way to deny construction of the data centers.

Every day we receive messages of hope and despair on climate and our planet's future. Be one of the helpers.
Write @GovMikeDeWine asking him to veto S.B. 219. It fast-tracks fracking INSIDE our state parks and public lands.

Please keep writing on the environment and climate change, @borenbears. Your curiosity and journalistic ethics are needed throughout the world. Congratulations!

I am so grateful. Last night the DC Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists -- @SPJDC -- honored me by inducting me into its Hall of Fame. The amazing @dsupervilleap introduced me.

What started as a mission has now led to over 50 million pounds of trash removed, and we’re not stopping here.
This is something you can be part of, every 4ocean bracelet removes one pound of trash from the ocean, rivers, and shorelines.
This is bigger than a bracelet, it’s a movement you can wear.

🆕The Earth is accumulating heat at an accelerating rate. Human-caused warming reached 1.37°C above pre-industrial levels in 2025 & is expected to exceed 1.5°C within ~4 years. PIKs W. Lamb led the report’s assessment of global greenhouse gas emissions.
