Here’s a surprising bit of good news: Global carbon dioxide emissions may have peaked last year. This means emissions that are responsible for climate change are starting to fall, according to new data.
Global carbon dioxide emissions might have already peaked, according to new estimates, signaling a potentially monumental shift.

Thank you.
Generally, you want one verb per sentence. As published, there are four verbs, "stepped," "helped," "owned," and "attended." Pity the reader.
There are exceptions, obviously. But, in journalism especially, it's wise to keep things simple and clean.
A little after 6:00 p.m., Giuliani stepped out of a Dodge Durango. Helped by a security detail, he went into the restaurant, Amata, a white-tableclothed, red sauce joint. The venue is owned by the brother-in-law of Anthony Carbonetti, the former mayor's erstwhile chief of staff, also in attendance.
Somebody, maybe on this thread, said Biden leak a hot mic moment.
Oh, by Democrat you mean elected official. I thought you just meant us.
Yeah, I don't know. There's something to be said for letting other people play attack dog, but I do wish more elected Democrats were willing to tell the freaking truth.
The thing that gets me is that it's literally less than one hour, out of one day, every other year. That's it. Virtually nothing. But they'll spend ENDLESS amounts of time online arguing against it — way, way, way more time than it takes to actually cast a vote.
I've literally never met one person, pro-Israel or not, who supports Netanyahu.
I'm reminded of a bumper sticker from the 70s. Something about nuking the gay whales.
I watch a lot of ESPN and I would love to see a sports pundit try this. "I haven't seen either team play this season, but..."
Let me stop ya right there, chief.

It's almost like they're biased against every single person of a certain nationality, no matter what their politics.
Unnecessary modifier at the end. Makes it sound like they value principles at their place of employment.
Afraid is probably the appropriate reaction. They're so negatively polarized that they can't even accept that some Israelis do indeed want peace. Their mere existence as Israelis is enough. I think we know what to call that, don't we?
Angry that he donated to an organization working for peace. What can you even say?
Yep. Look what happened to Bon Iver.

They're literally mad about peace.

Okay, my point is that it's become a New York Times Pitchbot joke.
"Here's why that's bad for Joe Biden..."
And there was a time.... I mean, Year of Living Dangerously was no joke. Neither was Gallipoli.
Yes, you should participate in democracy. Spending 20 minutes once every other year is really not enough. Kind of bizarre that people think it is.
Yep. Just like that. Emoji and all. I'm telling you the truth. It's what talking to MAGA people are like. Just schoolyard insults.
Anyway, I'm going to mute this thread now. I wish you well.
I don't know what that is.
I don't like it when people passive-aggressively use my first name inappropriately. It's condescending and childish. I'm going to mute you now. I don't know what this was or supposed to be at all, but I wish you well. Take care.
So I say that dehumanizing language is bad actually, and your response is to insult me like you're a teenager on Reddit?
Y'all are something else. You're supposed to be smart, kind, and progressive, but you just act like Mean Girls. It's like talking to the MAGA people. Same energy and tone.
Well, your casual cruelty is really persuasive, but I'm going to go ahead and try not to dehumanize people just because I disagree with them. It's a way of staying kind and human, but thanks anyway.
Like I said elsewhere in the thread, it seems as if people are competing to see who can use the most extreme language to describe people they disagree with. That's dehumanizing, too. It doesn't lead anywhere good.
