The fossil fuel industry is literally ruining people’s lives. Sea level rise is here & this week NC homes are collapsing into the ocean. It’s #TimeToTransition away from fossils fuels & towards clean energy so we can #ProtectOurCoast.

Coastal economies rely on clean coasts and a healthy ocean to thrive, and as we remember BP’s #DeepwaterHorizon disaster, we must remind President Biden to #ProtectOurCoast and keep our coastal economy safe.

Last year, Exxon, BP, Chevron and Shell made $70B in profits as America led the world in oil exports.

Last week, the world's top scientists warned that this level of oil consumption will end life as we know it but thankfully renewables are now cheap AF

What do crabs and tomatoes have in common?

When farmers grow produce (like tomatoes) sustainably, less pollution flows into local waterways. When water is cleaner, underwater grasses thrive and help Bay critters like crabs do the same.

More oil and gas drilling in the Gulf of Mexico is bad for the climate, our economy, and environment. It's time for @POTUS @Interior @BOEM to use EVERY tool available to CANCEL lease sale 257. #ActOnClimate #ProtectOurCoast #EndOffshoreDrilling

Thank you @RepKatiePorter for leading on accountability.

The fact remains, oil spill “clean ups” are largely a myth. Most of what was spilled will never be recovered.
