"letting saplings regrow on land where forests have been cleared would increase global forested area by 1/3 & remove 205 billion metric tons of CO2 from the atmosphere[...]2/3 of the roughly 300 billion metric tons of CO2 humans have [released since] the Industrial Revolution."
Wow. Regenerating deforested, broken land across the world would get us two thirds of the way to solving climate change... #regenerate#reforest#rewild#restore

#Maine’s making green moves! “Gov. Mills has signed 57 bills into law in recent days. Those this week include approving the "Green New Deal," which addresses clean energy and climate issues; & a ban on single-use plastic bags & more.”

“...in the past year, three states — including California, the world's fifth-largest economy — plus the DC & Puerto Rico made commitments to get all of their electricity from carbon-free or carbon-neutral sources in the next few decades.” #npr https://t.co/ngz5aj2UUB
The Anacostia is a small river — just 8 miles long — but it has been central to Washington’s history from the beginning. And from the start environmental degradation has gone together with mistreatment of humans in the watershed. @wamu885 https://t.co/SxeLkqFcfd
@TomPerez@DNC Climate change affects and is connected to all other issues - jobs, social justice, community health, war, national security, food security, etc.
We need systemic solutions to our increasingly turbulent & vulnerable world.

@BeyondCarbon: $500 million investment to close remaining “241 coal plants in the country by 2030”... “ensuring that natural gas does not fill the energy void left...”
280+ coal plants, 40% of US coal fleet, have either closed or announced plans to close since 2010 #beyondcarbon
The pace of climate change is accelerating and progress cannot wait — we must move beyond carbon. Launched today, @BeyondCarbon – a $500M investment – is the largest coordinated campaign the U.S. has ever taken to transition to 100% clean energy. https://t.co/8Xswi3Nkgr
