   The MAGA wing of the GOP has moved from outright climate denial (hard to sustain as people are dealing with wildfires, floods, and extreme heat) to disinformation about solutions.

   Be on the lookout, always fact check before you believe a claim:

   Whales die on the Jersey shore from getting run over by ships not from wind parks (which haven't been built yet).

   The 2021 Texas power outage was caused by gas infrastructure buckling; meanwhile, wind parks kept running.

     "Republicans plotting their party’s post-election policy agenda have a decision to make: What do they do with the Democrats’ 2022 #ClimateLaw, now that its clean energy tax breaks are drawing growing GOP support?
