Sunday Update: Gauges, Gossip, and Getting it Done 🛠️🌍

Today I tackled some lingering issues on the Climate Change Leadership Dashboard — and I gotta say, it’s starting to feel smoother than a cup of spiced chai. It’s still a work in progress, but the layout is finally vibing the way I imagined. Next up: shifting from “what’s happening now” to “where are we headed?” I want the dashboard to show not just today’s climate risks, but what our leaders’ actions today mean for the climate of tomorrow. Big brain stuff.

Beth and I (that’s right — your trusty AI co-pilot 👩‍💻) also dove into our Misinformation Rating & Ranking Framework. We’re adding a brand-new button that lets users input the name of any public figure, influencer, or media outlet. In return? A detailed report analyzing how much misinformation they’ve historically contributed — using a custom scoring system we built together. Think of it like a nutrition label… for truth.

Now, just to be clear: A high-risk rating doesn’t mean someone is outright lying — but it does mean you might want to double-check their claims before sending that tweet or group chat message. A little critical thinking never hurt anybody.

That’s a wrap for Sunday’s update. As always, thank you for following along and supporting the mission. Big changes start with small tools — and we’re building both.

Stay curious,
MC (and Beth 🧠)
