The Associated Press Looks At The Pets That Release The Most Carbon Emissions

Posted • November 4, 2025: Word on the street is that CBS News, under new editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, will begin favoring a balanced approach toward climate change coverage. A truly balanced approach would be that it's a hoax. —— Climate change at CBS News: CBS News fired its entire "Climate Unit" after producer sent climate attribution explainers from political advocacy group Climate Central to entire company during Melissa coverage. CBS News coverage of climate change was described as "hard left" https://x.com/RyanMaue/status/1985816032720589305 —— Under new management, CBS News immediately ditched its biased climate coverage instead favoring a balanced approach practiced at Free Press. https://heated.world/p/cbs-news-kills-its-climate-unit —— Quote: Tracy Wholf had suggested including a simple sentence in reports to link the storm with the crisis: “The above-average Atlantic Ocean temperatures, made worse by climate change, helped Melissa rapidly intensify into a category 5 storm.” https://x.com/RyanMaue/status/1985819879568531457

CBS News may have "gutted" its climate change team under new "conservative" management, but the Associated Press still hasn't gotten the memo. Their latest? Which pets have the biggest climate pawprint and what to do about it. —— The Associated Press @AP: “Pets have a pretty sizable climate impact. But not all carbon…pawprints…are created equal.

The option you should explore is deleting your account. I’m going to buy a diesel-powered pet cow with a chimney for an arse. —— As we said, ABC News is still at it. We've all been assured that climate change affects women and minorities the most, but do you know who's really hard-hit? Marathon runners.

ABC News @ABC: “According to a new analysis by Climate Central, climate change is threatening the optimal conditions that help elite runners break world records and amateurs achieve their personal bests.” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G4Z1i7mXAAAyk3u?format=jpg&name=large —— A new analysis by Climate Central, the same source CBS News was using in its reporting. […] "This year's Tokyo and Berlin marathons were hit by heat waves that Climate Central said were made two to three times more likely by climate change," he adds. So we're worried about the performance of marathon runners in 2045 because temperatures won't be optimal. We were told the East Coast was going to be underwater by now. This seems less serious. "Hey, Siri. Some of the best marathon runners are from Kenya. What's the climate like in Kenya?" (…)
