Punishing homelessness is deadly, and so is the myth of "service resistance." People don't resist safety and dignity. If services offered those basic human needs, then we could make real progress toward ending homelessness. 1/2

California on pace to become 100% WindWaterSolar 24/7/365 by 2033

57.5% of all demand in 2025 met by WWS, vs 52.4% in 2024.

2 more >100% WWS days for 176 of 229 (76.9%) in 2025

Gas down 25% v '24 & 43% v '23

Demand down 2.4% v '24 & 2.6% v '23 despite more EVs, heat pumps, AI

Trump wants to replace doctors with AI to determine whether Medicare patients get the care they need.

A machine will have the ability to override a licensed doctor to deny care in order to increase profits. Make no mistake, this is a direct attack on Medicare.

This week at the @UN Climate Summit, I addressed world leaders: science is clear, we face a planetary crisis. Solutions exist. The window to a manageable climate future is still open, but just. Failure is not inevitable. It is a choice. Read more: https://t.co/VkWbvwXlfc

We are causing #globalwarming 100 times faster than past natural changes

We are taking Earth’s 🌎 climate beyond natural limits, with CO2 & temps levels not seen for 3 million years.

No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

17.5 MILLION Hiroshima bombs worth of heat accumulated in the Mediterranean Sea from 2023 to 2024.

Sea Surface Temperatures increased more in the past 15 years than over the preceding 150 years.

On May 1st 2025 sulphur emissions from shipping will decrease again by about 80%

Ventura County strawberry workers are harvesting in heavy smoke from the Hughes Fire. We remind workers their employers have to provide them with respirator masks if the AQI exceeds 150. Stay safe! #WeFeedYou

Big Oil raked in record-breaking profits. The companies that caused the climate crisis are getting rich as they fuel the fire.

@ExxonMobil: $55.7 billion
@Shell: $39.87 billion
@Chevron: $35.5 billion
@BP_plc: $27.7 billion

Time to make the pay for the damage they've caused.

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

Everyone needs to know that these fires were made possible by global heating, which is caused by the fossil fuel industry, which has lied and blocked action for half a century. And that this will all get much, much, much worse until we end the fossil fuel industry

The Arctic is warming at a rate up to four times faster than the planet as a whole and has lost a third of its sea ice volume in just two decades: https://t.co/iZEsMTiSnm

Amazing new paper shows how the 2022 jump in oil & gas prices delivered $916b extra to Big Oil - almost all captured by Big Oil's backers

Society as a whole received almost zero benefit and was, on average, impoverished: inequality worsened across the board

[Zeke Hausfather @hausfath]

There is also a huge potential for scale. We found that there is enough available land in the SW US alone that is close to roads and gas pipelines to build 1200 GW of offgrid solar microgrid datacenter capacity, far more than will be needed for the foreseeable future:

Turns out Shell has been selling cargoes of liquefied natural gas as “carbon neutral”, using carbon credits from projects which may have had no emissions-cutting activities at all

That’s reason number umpteenth why I had a chapter in my book entitled “Never Buy Carbon Offsets for Anything, Especially Your Car Gasoline”. We no longer have any time for playing games with voluntary carbon credits, CO2 indulgences created over 20 years ago to transition companies to actually reduce emissions by now. The transition period has been over for years: Close voluntary carbon markets

More than 90% of fossil fuel emissions occurred since my parents were born.
Over 80% since I was born.
Over 30% since my children were born.

And well over 50% since the world agreed at the Rio Earth Summit to prevent dangerous climate change. And I thought: „At last!“

[Solar and Storage Industry @SEIA]

BREAKING: After a record Q3, U.S. solar manufacturing has reached a critical threshold.

At full capacity, American #solar module factories can now produce enough to meet nearly all demand for solar in the U.S.

New record low for fossil generation in Chile 🇨🇱

The country has gone from meeting 60-70% of its electricity needs with fossil fuels in 2016 to just 18% in November 2024!

Wind and solar ☀️ are displacing fossil fuels 🔥 at a rapid rate!

[Rep. Ro Khanna @RepRoKhanna]

It’s outrageous that billions in taxpayer subsidies are being given to Big Oil companies every year while they fleece American consumers and fuel a global climate crisis. Let’s repeal them.

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

Every year, 3 billion trees, many from vital forests, are destroyed for paper packaging.

We have better solutions than cutting down climate & biodiversity critical forests to make a box. Implement them.

Not plastic, not paper — better.
