Today, we have a dispatch from our colleague Marie Tae McDermott, who tackled the latest installment of our series answering readers’ questions about inequality in California:

Another reader, Jim, from Santa Cruz, wrote that he believed “many, if not most” of the homeless people he saw were not native Californians. He asked: “Why is California bearing the brunt of this national crisis?” As the data shows us, most of the homeless people you pass on the streets every day are in fact Californians. Some may have rented an apartment or once owned a home in your neighborhood. Now they sleep in an encampment near the freeway you take to work each morning.

Several years ago, LAHSA added a question to its homeless survey that captured how long a person had been in Los Angeles and where they became homeless. The resulting data dispelled the idea that the homeless population was largely made up of people from out of state.LAHSA’s 2019 homeless count found that 64% of the 58,936 Los Angeles County residents experiencing homelessness had lived in the city for more than 10 years.

More than 11,000 scientists issue fresh warning: Earth faces a climate emergencyMore than 11,000 scientists around the world are backing a study with a dire warning: Earth is facing a climate emergency. I’d still like to know the findings of the other 100,000 plus scientists. Not to worry. American conservatives have assured me that an exponentially growing human population, pursuing industrialization and consumerism, pulling trillions of tons of carbon out of the ground and putting it into the air inside a sealed system can't have any consequences. Since the 1970s dude, it was suppose to be themed of the world. Does all these scientists get grants & funding? Did they tell you the Ozone has been recorded the smallest ever recorded, for the record this year. Meaning we’re doing good not going overboard crazy, ten year die lie
