When’s the emergency special session on where all the taxpayer dollars are going? What happened to the California High-Speed Rail to nowhere that’s $100b over budget? Why did the $17b to solve homelessness increase the problem by 40%? Any plans to look into this grift?
California is calling an emergency special session to safeguard the fundamental freedoms we all hold dear. We will continue to stand up for basic American values.

Good company to keep. @Shopify and @WineDirectHQ
Excited to see @Shopify make this investment in our environment as #DTC shipping volume goes through the roof. We too are proud to offset 100% of shipment-related #carbon emissions, during the holidays and year-round.

This might be a good time to remind everyone that #ClimateChange has *doubled* the occurrence of extreme fire weather conditions in California during autumn--contributing to the ongoing wildfire crisis. There is a clear link between warming climate & increasing wildfire severity.
Our new work on #ClimateChange & autumn wildfire risk in California, led by Michael Goss, is out today in (open-access) ERL. We find that climate change has already doubled the frequency of extreme fire weather days since 1980s.(1/6) #CAwx #CAfire #CAwater iopscience.iop.org/article/1…

I'm convinced that 2020 will be an inflection point for the American winemaking community: the year climate change got real. As I write this, I'm staring out at a dim, yellow landscape, the indistinct sunlight filtered through a thick layer of atmospheric smoke. A thread. 1/

Let’s hope this rain in AUS continues.
Our thoughts are with teammates, clients, friends & partners impacted by the unprecedented fires in Australia. WineDirect is pledging a donation to assist with immediate disaster relief & long-term rebuilding initiatives. As weather improves, we hope for a respite.
