tRump isn't saving anybody money by rolling back EPA regulations other than corporations. The cost is your health and Earth for generations. Don't be a fool—even climate change deniers know pollution in the air, water, and land isn't healthy. Yes, you know it.
Scientific FrontlineA comprehensive 6,000-year study overturns the assumption that major #earthquakes follow predictable cycles, demonstrating instead that they occur in random clusters and lulls.

Scientific FrontlineThe unprecedented surge in #atmospheric #methane during the early 2020s was primarily driven by a temporary decline in #hydroxyl (OH) radicals, which reduced the atmosphere's ability to break down the gas, coupled with increased natural emissions from wetlands due to wetter #climate conditions.
