The news just keeps getting worse:

It contains this passage:

In 2016, as with the previous two years, the world put 32 billion metric tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. CO2 is a deadly greenhouse gas that turned Venus into a torrid hellhole hot enough to melt lead.

Buried lede: Apparently there was a capitalist-induced industrial revolution on Venus that caused that planet’s problem.

And if you bet that the word “Frankendrought” would appear in the article, go to the window and collect your winnings.
