Fiscus said that she is one of many state or territorial immunization program directors to leave their position during the pandemic, and that health professionals have been “vilified” by a public “who chooses not to believe in science, and elected and appointed officials who have put their own self-interest above the people they were chosen to represent and protect.”

"Never mind that there’s little evidence that critical race theory — which, again, is a legal theory, not some pedagogical tool for young kids — is even taught in elementary schools. And never mind the fact that, as contributor Lena Mazel previously wrote in the Scene, Republicans can’t even agree on a clear definition for critical race theory. Despite all that, in May, Gov. Bill Lee signed into a law a ban on critical race theory, forced through by GOP lawmakers."

Global Warming is coming like a freight train!
The atmospheric burden of CO2 is now comparable to where it was during the Mid-Pliocene Warm Period around 3.6 million years ago, when concentrations of CO2 in the atmosphere ranged from about 380 to 450 parts per million. During that time sea level was about 78 feet higher than today, the average temperature was 7°F (3.9°C) higher than in pre-industrial times, and studies indicate large forests occupied areas of the Arctic that are now tundra.
