We will have a media training on October 7th at 2 pm ET (zoom here) for all interested extreme weather media surrogates. You'll learn how to feel comfortable talking to the press and how to connect extreme weather and climate. We'll also discuss tackling tough questions from reporters.

See the news below from the Methane Partners Campaign. We'll follow up when we hear more about SCOTUS's ruling on the carbon standards. There was also an update on mercury in the news article linked below.

SCOTUS Declines to Block EPA Methane Rule

Good news! Today the Supreme Court of the United States rejected the applications filed by Republican-led states and fossil fuel industry groups pleading the high court to halt implementation of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Section 111 Methane Rule, and block new limits on methane emissions from new and existing oil and gas infrastructure while legal challenges play out.

You can find messaging guidance on the SCOTUS methane emergency stay decision here.

If you put out a statement to celebrate this decision, please reiterate the importance of the EPA’s Section 111 methane rule. Please send your statements to <abby@team-arc.com> so that we can compile a coalition quote sheet. The Methane Partners Campaign will help circulate them to reporters but feel free to share them directly with your own press contacts.
