For climate advocates across the country, the outcome of this election means that all of us must find ways to redouble our efforts and find bipartisan solutions to the climate crisis that create jobs, promote prosperity and safeguard the future of humanity.
In a moment such as this, it is important to remember that all major reform efforts, from civil rights to the climate movement, suffer dark days. And this is surely one. We can mourn a loss, but we can’t linger in despair. Our planet doesn’t have time for that. Now more than ever, this movement needs engagement and leadership from all corners of the country.
During a down moment in the struggle for civil rights, Martin Luther King, Jr. said something about overcoming days like this: “If you can’t fly, run; if you can’t run, walk; if you can’t walk, crawl; but by all means keep moving.”
We know the line to solutions is never straight or easy. But we have won major victories in tackling the climate crisis and reducing climate pollution in our country, and we will again.
My greatest source of hope comes from the courage and commitment of grassroots leaders and advocates in the U.S. and around the world who are relentlessly pushing for progress. Onward.

To be clear: the US election result is a blow in the fight against the climate crisis. The window to limit warming to 1.5°C is closing—these next 4 years are critical. But let’s not despair. The Paris Agreement has proven resilient, stronger than any one country’s policies (1/10)
"Voters are feeling the impacts of climate change – in their lives, communities, and pocketbooks – and they are ready for change" says @c_r_spears.
New polling finds voters are more concerned about climate change, esp. in states hard-hit by hurricanes:

Climate change is making hurricanes more powerful & dangerous.
Storm surges are higher due to sea level rise caused by climate change.
Higher temperatures also mean heavier rain & flooding during storms.

We are modifying the weather, but not in the ways the conspiracy theorists think. We are modifying the weather through our usage of fossil fuels.
We have helped to create ocean water warmth near #Milton that is 800 times more likely because of #climatechange.
