Hundreds of people in Atlanta and Fulton County jails who SHOULD NOT BE THERE. Don’t need a new $2B jail and $90M Atlanta Police training center to know that.
Don’t depend on @ATLSolFund to bail black people out they are racist af. We are bailing people out. Black people don’t need racist organizers in our movement
Who is "like us" You mean
You mean white people.
Black people get this on a daily.
Watch what this racist organizer says
@atlsolfund organizer MARLON KAUTZ: Absolutely. Yeah, in terms of the raid, it was terrifying, obviously. And you’ll have to forgive my voice. I’m still feeling the effects of the better half of a week in DeKalb County Jail. But, you know, we woke up to the sound of our door being broken down by a battering ram and our house being surrounded by dozens of SWAT officers. And my first reaction was that this has to be a mistake. You know, naively, I thought this wasn’t the kind of thing that could happen to organizers like us. But once I saw the automatic weapons, the body armor, and I heard police discussing throwing a flashbang into our living room, I realized that these police had come prepared to kill us, in the same way that police have come prepared to kill activists protesting in the forest — and, in fact, did kill Manuel “Tortuguita” Terán. And so we quickly surrendered. We were arrested in our pajamas and taken to jail.
So, the experience was terrifying on two different levels: in this immediate way of what it was like to face that kind of police violence for doing nothing more than nonviolent work to support the rights of protesters, but also on this higher level of what it means, right? Because if this kind of police violence can be brought even against organizers like us, who — you know, who do nothing more than make sure that activists have access to lawyers, who make sure that they’re able to make bail if they can’t afford it themselves — if this kind of violence can be brought against people like us, who is safe in this city? And what does that mean for the right to protest and democracy?

To maximise the climate benefits of forests, we must keep more forest landscapes intact, manage them more sustainably, and restore more of those landscapes which we have lost
Forests are a stabilising force for the climate. They regulate ecosystems, protect biodiversity, play an integral part in the carbon cycle, support livelihoods, and supply goods and services that can drive sustainable growth
Forests are also one of the most important solutions to addressing the effects of climate change. tonnes of carbon dioxide, released from burning fossil fuels, is absorbed by forests every year.
Halting the loss and degradation of forest ecosystems and promoting their restoration have the potential to contribute climate change mitigation needed by 2030 to meet the objectives of the Paris Agreement.
Nature and in particular, trees and forests can and must be part of the solution to keeping the climate within the globally accepted two degree temperature increase limit.
If the urgency in global climate action to turn things around is directly proportional to the current global news headlines.....then our hope of keeping global temperature rise to 1.5C is in serious jeopardy.
