The weather, currently.
Another day in the 90s
No, this isn’t Groundhog Day, but the stretch of warm weather will continue for SoCal. Valleys will be in the 90s again on Tuesday, with LA metro moderating a bit in the mid-80s. Still tracking a cooldown and finally an end to the heatwave by next weekend, especially towards the coast.
What you can do, currently.
A Media Matters analysis found that last year — the hottest calendar year on record — network coverage of climate actually declined in the US. What’s worse, just 12% of reports about climate change mentioned fossil fuels as the driving cause. The media still reported on extreme weather, but stopped short of making the climate connection.
Independent climate journalism like Currently is needed more than ever. And this year, with all of these weather warnings already underway, we’ll unfortunately have plenty of opportunities to do better.
