    Yes, the SCOTUS ruling in WV v EPA is a "blow to Biden's climate agenda," as many reporters (including me) have written. But this kind of framing misses that it's really a blow to efforts to cut emissions in line w/ climate science. Physics doesn't care about politics.

    .@sarahkaplan48’s story about the IPCC report is still the first article on the @washingtonpost’s homepage. Proud to work in a newsroom that rightly treats climate change like the biggest story on the planet.
