FYI: if you’re paying more than $20/month for your (US) cell phone, there might be decent alternatives. For literally half my life I’ve been an AT&T customer, but it turns out when the competition charges $10/month to AT&T’s $55, there’s no reason to stay.
I moved to France and was shocked at how cheap the phone plans are here, so I looked into it for my US number and there are some non-prepaid options now! Hopefully the tide turns soon 🤞🌊
Me and a few other climate folks on Twitter have noticed a very clear new prominence of climate deniers and delayers
So with some help, I gathered up some data and checked - it turns out that denial/delay, pro-fossil disinformation accounts have seen massive growth in their audience, while pro-climate-action accounts have either stagnated or shrunk.
Elon Musk is reshaping Twitter into a safe space for right-wingers, and in doing so, empowering climate change deniers, delayers and pro-fossil advocates more than ever before.

"If a dozen passenger jets were crashing and burning across the state every year, imagine the national media attention and government investigations. We’d think twice about flying anywhere. There would be a large-scale effort to stop planes from crashing. But nearly 10 people killed on average every day while walking, rolling and driving in California? Well, that’s just how it is."
