1/12. Pinkey wrote, "there are cases of the Diary [of Anne Frank] being banned in FL" No, there are not. Here're the facts: foxnews.com/media/desantis

2/12. That lie has been thoroughly debunked. x.com/ChristinaPusha

This is just a lie. Not only is Anne Frank’s diary not β€œbanned” in Florida β€” it’s on @Florida Department of Education recommended reading list.
3/12. If you get your news from The Grauniad @The Guardian it's no wonder you're confused. As we say here in NC, "they lie like a rug." They even ran a story falsely declaring that Fakegate forger Dr. Peter Gleick had been "cleared." I'm not kidding, they really did. x.com/ncdave4life/st So it is no surprise that the article by Olivia Empson @Olivia Empson is untrue. That's just what The Grauniad does.
4/12. Here's left-leaning LeadStories @Lead Stories debunking the false accusation that Florida has banned The Diary of Anne Frank. yahoo.com/news/articles/
5/12. AFAIK, nobody in Florida has sought to ban The Diary of Anne Frank, in any context. Not even "Just 1 School." jta.org/2023/06/12/cul The controversy is about a different book, a "graphic novel" by one Ari Folman, entitled "Anne Frank's Diary: The Graphic Adaptation." It reproduces portions of the original Diary of Anne Frank, and adds fictional material. But it is NOT The Diary of Anne Frank.
6/12. Moving on… I'm not a "science advisor" to the CO2 Coalition, I'm honored to be a Member & volunteer. This is the latest project I worked on with them: doi.org/10.31219/osf.i Engelbeen F, Hannon R, Burton D (2024). "The Human Contribution to Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide." CO2 Coalition. doi:10.31219/osf.io/het6n co2coalition.org/wp-content/upl
7/12. The CO2 Coalition @CO2 Coalition is a very fine scientific organization, dedicated to good science. To oppose the CO2 Coalition is to oppose good science. co2coalition.org If you support good medical science, but oppose good climate science, it suggests you prioritize ideology over science. I do the opposite.
8/12. If you think it's "greenwashing" to support the science showing that CO2 emissions are beneficial, you've been duped. Elevated CO2 is "greening" the world! The environmental benefits are so dramatic that NASA measures them from space: youtube.com/watch?v=zOwHT8 (That's a NASA video)
9/12. Even better: CO2 is as beneficial for human agriculture as it is for natural ecosystems. It's a major contributor to ending the scourge of catastrophic, drought-induced famines, for the first time in human history! sealevel.info/learnmore.html
10/12. That's a VERY Big Deal, comparable to ending war or disease. For comparison: ● COVID-19 killed about 0.1% of the world's population. ● The catastrophic 1918 flu pandemic killed about 2%. ● WWII killed 2.7% of the world's population. ● But the near-global drought and famine of 1876-78 killed about 3.7% of the world's population.
11/12. If you support "Net Zero" and "carbon neutrality," which would lower atmospheric CO2 levels, eventually to near pre-industrial levels, you need to be aware of what you're supporting. sealevel.info/learnmore.html
Oof. A few searches show you're also serving as a 'science advisor' and board member for an industrial/conservative-funded front group trying to greenwash COβ‚‚ emissions, which is pretty ballsy *and* despicable. C0β‚‚ Coalition, everyone: science.org/content/articl
12/12. The best science shows that manmade climate change is modest & benign, CO2 emissions are beneficial, and the "social cost of carbon" is negative. To understand a contentious issue like climate change requires balanced information. I'm here to help: x.com/ncdave4life/st
