As fires wreak havoc in California,\u00a0Sen.\u00a0Ed Markey<\/a>, D-Mass., claimed in a post on X the catastrophe is \u201cwhat a climate emergency looks like.\u201d<\/p>\n

In another tweet, he took aim at\u00a0President-elect Trump<\/a>, asserting the incoming president has been bought off by the oil industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrump has been bought for $1 billion by Big Oil. Just a payoff to kill the IRA and\u00a0the Green New Deal<\/a>. We know what will happen. More fires, more climate disasters, more death. The LA fires are preview of coming atrocities,\u201d Markey declared in a post on X.<\/p>\n

Markey, who claims there is a \u201cclimate crisis,\u201d has also warned about the potential effects of\u00a0artificial intelligence\u00a0(AI).<\/p>\n

He suggested rising use of AI could result in \u201cdoubling data center electricity demand by 2026,\u201d \u201cincreased carbon emissions,\u201d \u201cwater supply shortages\u201d and \u201celectronic waste.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are already facing a climate crisis. We can\u2019t let AI make it worse,\u201d Markey warned.<\/p>\n
