German scientists say the prices we pay for meat and dairy products are too low as they fail to account for costs to society and the climate in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. The biggest polluter is conventionally-produced meat, they say, which should be nearly 2.5 times its current price. nature.com/articles/s4146…

This is despite the fact that it is a growing concern for Americans. From 2008-2020 the percentage of U.S adults who believe climate change should be a top priority for the government has increased from 30% to 52%.
However, it is worth noting that global carbon dioxide continue to rise, and ultimately in the short term climate change is determined by the emissions of the whole world, not just of one particular country.

The “building electrification” movement is coming for your Colorado home. Here’s what you need to know before giving up gas. Fighting greenhouse gases means switching out fuel-burning furnaces, water heaters and stoves for models running on clean electricity. Coloradans will have to adapt. coloradosun.com/2021/05/1…
Help! CO2 greenhouse gas experiment isn't working!
I'm moving into a unit on climate change soon, and wanted to start with a solid foundation establishing that CO2 is a greenhouse gas. I looked up a few experiments people have done and tried it myself.
Two clear containers
two digital thermometers (Vernier)
A small amount of water
Alka-Seltzer tablets to add CO2 to one container
a lamp
Each time I've run this experiment the regular air container becomes hotter faster, with a higher maximum temperature.
I've tried changing the containers from 2 liter bottles to Erlenmeyer flasks
I've tried a heat lamp as well as a full spectrum lamp (for growing plants)
I've added a dark paper to the back of each bottle to absorb the light and release heat. So far none of these things have helped.
What experiments have worked for others? Anyone see where I'm going wrong?
