Shock. Shock. Shock. Gas prices are at the highest level in 7 years while Exxon Mobil, Chevron, Shell & BP made nearly $25 billion in profits last quarter – the highest level in over 7 years. The problem is not inflation. The problem is corporate greed, collusion & profiteering.

WIN! A judge ruled that the biggest oil & gas lease sale in US history was ILLEGAL & a climate assessment must be conducted.

But @Potus & @SecDebHaaland could try to appeal. Tell @Interior 866-834-8040 to accept the ruling!

Tell Congress pass legislation now to stop pandemic price gouging for at-home tests, masks and other health essentials.

@chuckschumer @RepJerryNadler @SenGillibrand This is urgent and dangerous, @POTUS has ordered 8,500 US troops to be on heightened alert for possible deployment to Eastern Europe. Don't let Biden take the US to war with Russia over Ukraine. We need negotiations, not escalation!

NYC alone is home to 10000+ canners, many of them are immigrants and low income. Canners support modernizing the bottle bill to boost recycling rates and support the beverage redemption community. @GovKathyHochul please include #BottleBill40 modernization in your executive budget

In a business-as-usual scenario, the ocean will contain one ton of plastic for every 3 tons of fish by 2025, and by 2050, more plastics (by weight) than fish. To avoid this catastrophe, @GovKathyHochul must pass the #BottleBill40 modernization in this year’s executive budget!

[Edie Kantrowitz @EdieKTweets]

Passing the #BottleBill40 modernization would create 4,145 new jobs while raising recycling rates and saving municipalities money. @GovKathyHochul ahead of the 40th anniversary of the Bottle Bill, we urge you to modernize the bill in your executive budget.

[Edie Kantrowitz @EdieKTweets]

An expanded Bottle Bill would save municipalities money by reducing the costs to collect and process materials. @GovKathyHochul we urge you to include the #BottleBill40 modernization in your executive budget to increase recycling while reducing cost to the state’s cities.

[Edie Kantrowitz @EdieKTweets]

@GovKathyHochul New York’s returnable container rate has been stagnant at 64% for the past five years. Ahead of the #BottleBill40 Anniversary, it’s time to modernize the Bottle Bill. NY should do what Oregon and Michigan did and increase the deposit to increase recycling rates!

[Edie Kantrowitz @EdieKTweets]

@GovKathyHochul it’s time to modernize the #BottleBill to increase recycling rates, reduce litter, and create jobs! Ahead of the fortieth anniversary of the bill, we urge you to modernize the New York Bottle Bill. #BottleBill40

[Edie Kantrowitz @EdieKTweets]

We are calling @GovKathyHochul to modernize the Bottle Bill ahead of its 40th anniversary. Please call her office at 518-474-8390, and urge her to increase the deposit and the containers covered under the law to increase recycling rates, while reducing emissions and litter.

@DavePriceTV Hey Dave, lol, do you own more than that one black suit.....

@WWE @BrockLesnar @SamiZayn Sami is funny, should have been # 1 contender...

[People vs. Fossil Fuels @FightFossils]

RIGHT NOW: Police have begun arresting Indigenous protestors in the Bureau of Indian Affairs.

They are arresting press as well.

.@NYGovCuomo: Sign A.126/S.1759A and commit to public health by enforcing the testing of emerging contaminants in New York drinking water! #pfoa #pfos #pfas #cleanwater https://t.co/NJyjUuA3g2

By the same token, we can also quickly shut down other nonrenewable energy sources, like #fossilfuels and #nuclear, and replace them with nearly 100 percent #renewableenergy.
👏

[AGREE New York @agreenewyork]

By the time 2nd reactor closed April, 2021, renewables & efficiency had replaced more than 1/2 of Indian Point’s 2,000 MW & they're on course to replace more than 2x the output of Indian Point by 2025.
🆒
This means we don’t need any new gas plants to meet our energy needs!

[AGREE New York @agreenewyork]

Can we really meet NY’s energy & climate needs w/ renewable energy?

✅Absolutely!

Renewables & efficiency ramped up so fast since NYS struck agreement to close Indian Point nuclear plant that reliance on fossil fuel-fired electricity actually fell 10% btw 2016 & 2020...

[Edie Kantrowitz @EdieKTweets]

700+ groups are calling on @SenSchumer @SpeakerPelosi @Sen_JoeManchin @FrankPallone to pass a renewable energy standard for #100RE by 2030 - and boot out gas & other so-called "clean" false solutions.
