The National Weather Service issues Alaska’s first ever heat advisory

50% Left coverage: 26 sources
For the first time ever, parts of Alaska will be under a heat advisory — but you can put an asterisk at the end of that term. It’s not the first instance of unusually high temperatures in what many consider the nation’s coldest state, but the National Weather Service only recently allowed for heat advisories to be issued there. Information on similarly warm weather conditions previously came in the form of “special weather statements.”See the Story

Canada’s Wildfire Crisis Is Displacing First Nations at Alarming Rates

100% Left coverage: 2 sources
Since mid-May, wildfires across Canada have burned 9.6 million acres, prompting the evacuation of approximately 40,000 people. According to Indigenous Services Canada, a government ministry, more than half of those evacuees are from First Nations communities, and nearly 34 tribes in almost every province are affected.

How America's Prairie Was Nearly Destroyed — and Why It Should Be Restored

100% Left coverage: 1 sources
The American prairie was so vast, so alien, it shattered comprehension.  Newcomers to the seemingly endless grasslands that once spanned approximately a quarter of North America often hit a psychic wall, descending into fits of mania. Prairie madness, as the phenomenon came to be known, was recorded by the journalist E.V. Smalley in 1893 after a decade of observing life on the frontier: “An alarming amount of insanity occurs in the new Prairie S…Climate Change · United StatesSee the Story

Trump quietly shutters the only federal agency that investigates industrial chemical explosions

100% Left coverage: 2 sources
On a summer night in 2023, an explosion at one of Louisiana’s biggest petrochemical complexes sent a plume of fire into the sky. More explosions followed as poison gas spewed from damaged tanks at the Dow chemical plant, triggering a shelter-in-place order for anyone within a half mile of the facility, which sprawls across more than 830 acres near Baton Rouge. For more than a year, a little-known government agency has been investigating the inci…Baton Rouge · Baton RougeSee the Story

67% Left coverage: 3 sources
What creates a serial killer? Caroline Fraser, author of “Murderland,” has linked toxic fumes to the brain development of some of the most notorious criminals. Fraser told “The John Curley Show” on KIRO Newsradio Thursday that the Asarco Company’s Tacoma copper smelter—which released arsenic, lead, and other heavy metals into the air, according to the Washington Department of Ecology—may have been a culprit. The smelter, once the tallest smokest…Ted Bundy · TacomaSee the Story

Norway Is All in on Electric Cars. What Can the U.S. Learn?

100% Left coverage: 1 sources
In January, the Norwegian Road Federation released a statistic that turned heads inside transportation and climate circles: Almost 90 percent of new cars sold in Norway the previous year were fully electric. By the end of this year, the government expects sales of new gasoline and diesel cars to fall to zero and meet its goal to end the sale of new gasoline-powered cars by 2025. In a country known for snowcapped mountains, dramatic fjords, and t…Electric Vehicles · OsloSee the Story

Texas finalizes $1.8B to build solar, battery, and gas-powered microgrids

100% Left coverage: 1 sources
The Texas Legislature ended its biennial session without passing a slew of bills that could have killed the state’s booming solar and battery sector, and by extension, the ability to keep the Texas grid running amid extreme weather and surging demand for electricity. It did pass a law that could strengthen the state’s electricity reliability by encouraging the construction of more microgrids — combinations of small-scale gas-fired power, solar, …Climate Change · TexasSee the Story

Trump’s EPA accidentally made the case against passing the Big Beautiful Bill

Coverage: 2 sources
On the campaign trail last year, Donald Trump frequently criticized the Biden administration for new regulations targeting what he called “clean, beautiful coal.” In April, he signed executive orders directing federal agencies to undo any regulations that “discriminate” against coal. Coal-fired power plants produce a significant but shrinking share of U.S. electricity — about 16 percent in 2023 — and are by far the most polluting and planet-warm…Donald Trump · United StatesSee the Story
