7/“It’s hard to explain the mood. We are scared, but we are also giving each other solidarity, love and kindness. We are in it together. This is an attack on our country, on Iran," said Reza a businessman sheltering in the north.
"Gaza’s health crisis has its own dreadful momentum. Even if the shooting ends today and the aid trucks begin to roll, the dying will carry on for some time." -humanitarian expert Alex de Waal
God help the poor people of Gaza. And shame on the rest of us.

"When our communities are under attack, what do we do?! STAND UP, FIGHT BACK!"
Today, @CAvsBigOil launched their campaign to let ALL Californians know that we must vote to KEEP THE LAW, SB 1137, this November to protect neighborhoods from oil drilling.
With thoughtful planning, federal and state funding and industry collaboration that’s ALREADY HAPPENING we can easily hit infrastructure needs to hit an #ACF 100% #ElectricTrucks sales target by 2036!

As California debates cleaning up deadly trucking pollution this week by moving to zero-emissions, this study perfectly encapsulates why it’s important👇🏼

“They’re taking advantage of you, every single one of you, every single day. Hundreds of millions of dollars a week they’re putting in their pockets, lining their pockets at your expense, and then polluting this planet." Newsom going to war with Big Oil: https://t.co/UxDACNbOWr
Iran’s uprising isn’t about hair or hijabs — it’s about what they symbolize, says activist Hoda Katebi.

As 1,300 students started class less than 1,000' away, two 5,000-gallon tanker trucks rolled on to the LA Catholic Archdiocese's oil site to perform unpermitted acid maintenance. 3rd time this year. Sacrificial zoning, malign neglect, & env. racism by @Planning4LA.
This new idea from #caleg is better then keeping a dirty and dangerous nuclear power plant open. Thanks to the California Assembly. https://t.co/HGPI23ZwZg
Gavin Newsom is urging the California Legislature this month to set a goal of 90% clean electricity by 2035, and to mandate economy-wide carbon neutrality by 2045. Details from @TarynLuna: https://t.co/w9q33v0Uzw
No more oil drilling in #CA44!
Today, joined #Wilmington residents, @CBECal, & @STAND_LA, to call on CalGEM & @LACity to shut down Warren E&P’s illegal drill site next to homes and schools in Wilmington.
Our communities in #CA44 are not open for oil drilling. Not now. Not ever.
#CAleg: vote #YESonSB1314 to protect frontline communities and our future. It seems so obvious, but using captured carbon for enhanced oil recovery for more fossil fuels makes no sense as a response to the climate crisis!
