Putting Climate Change Into Ideological And Economic Perspective But when you look at how people identify in terms of political ideology rather than party, the numbers give a different story. A recent Gallup poll shows that 73% of Americans identify as very conservative, conservative, or moderate. Only 26% identify as liberal or very liberal. America is a center-right country, and it is becoming more so as well as more polarized https://archive.ph/wip/I1fRd #USA #US #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming

The team found that all-cause mortality increased by 67% during the month of the fires. This is a big deal because it suggests the true toll of the fire is much larger than what was captured in official counts. The study's authors think the rise was largely due to indirect deaths not caused by the blaze itself, but rather factors like chronic health conditions being exacerbated or someone facing a disruption in their ability to access medical care #Hawaii #USA #Climate
Until now, researchers typically measured roots by digging up large soil samples, washing the roots free, drying, and weighing them. This is a lengthy process, and the finest roots are often destroyed along the way. That is a major problem, since fine roots are the most active in absorbing nutrients and releasing carbon to the soil environment https://phys.org/news/2025-09-dna-analysis-quantifies-root-biomass.html #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #UpheavalClimate #MassExtinction #pollution #environment #climate
