It’s Black Friday, and here are the best shopping deals we could find
The leaves have turned, the turkey has been eaten, the parades are over, and the football has been watched—the only thing left to do is to try to hide from increasingly uncomfortable family conversations by going out and shopping for things! It’s the holiday tradition that not only makes us feel good, but also (apocryphally) drags the balance sheets of businesses the world over into profitability—hence “Black Friday!”
Our partners in the e-commerce side of the business have spent days assembling massive lists for you all to peruse—lists of home deals, and video game deals, and all kinds of other things. Does that special someone in your life need, like, a security camera? Or a tablet? Or, uh—(checks list)—some board games? We’ve got all those things and more!
A couple of quick notes: First, we’re going to be updating this list throughout the weekend as things change, so if you don’t see anything that tickles your fancy right now, check back in a few hours! Additionally, although we’re making every effort to keep our prices accurate, deals are constantly shifting around and an item’s actual price might have drifted from what we list. Caveat emptor and all that.

Climate change is now a driver of the world’s economy. The impact is profound:
- Catastrophic weather events — hurricanes, floods, droughts, high temperatures — are more frequent and more extreme. The cost can be measured in both the initial damage caused and the longer-term impact on the economy.
- Vulnerable communities are increasing climate-related investments, hardening infrastructure and taking other protective measures.
- Investment in carbon capture and storage technologies is increasingly rapidly.
- Governments are making investments and crafting regulations to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.
On top of all of this is the cost of uncertainty. As the Fourth National Climate Assessment, released in 2018 by the U.S. Global Change Research Program, says, “The assumption that current and future climate conditions will resemble the recent past is no longer valid.”
