And Here on Page A7...


April 9, 2026

 

Demonstrating their flair for irony, the editors of today’s Post-Dispatch put an article about climate change—“March Smashes Record”—at the top of the page. The article reports that this past March was the hottest since record-keeping began 132 years ago, and lists other severe indicators of global warming, which are increasing in frequency.

 

In the bottom right corner, there is an article about the head of the EPA congratulating himself on repealing the 2009 Endangerment Finding, which concluded that greenhouse gases are leading to climate change. Thanks to Lee Zeldin, from now on we will be free from following regulations designed to abate the myth of climate change. (Cue the trumpet flourish.)

 

Well, if the earth continues to heat, he’ll have plenty of sand to bury his head in.
