Ocean fact: Manatees are herbivores and help keep seagrass healthy for other species 💙

Perhaps we will reconsider the value of our native prairies and grasslands again. The carbon sequestration those deep roots are capable of and their ancient adaptation deserve our attention. https://t.co/dlpP5n817j

@raw0ats @moorehn West Texas fires near Abilene. Drought stricken land at that time, I think.

@CalltoActivism You're right. The time would be now. For all of their tomorrows.

Smoke from hundreds of climate-intensified fires currently burning out of control across Canada is covering much of North America. It's insanity that Biden is still expanding fossil fuels instead of declaring a climate emergency. Climate damage is effectively irreversible.

“There exists a strong link between the frequency and intensity of heat domes and human-caused climate change. A number of high-end heat domes have already fostered wildfire outbreaks across Canada this year, and more appear to be in the offing.”

Washington, D.C., public schools have canceled all outdoor activities, including athletic games, for Wednesday due to the poor air quality.

A "Code RED Air Quality Alert" has been issued for the nation's capital.

This is upstate New York right now.

Please help bees, butterflies and birds by reducing the mowing this year! By leaving a patch of grass in your garden to flower you'll be helping wildlife while reducing effort, cost and carbon emissions. Cartoon courtesy @sepponet

@EliotJacobson @ECOWARRIORSS Explains why I saw all sorts of life in the Atlantic around 2001…and now you can be out at sea for days and see nothing.

As of a couple of weeks ago, “east Coasters have evidently inhaled more smoke than most Californians in 2023 due to a quiet start to the wildfire season out West and an explosive start to the one upwind of us in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and now Nova Scotia.” https://t.co/zuUXA5o06u

Connect the dots: bad air quality, caused by Canadian wildfires, intensified by global warming, caused by fossil fuels, produced by companies like ExxonMobil, who lied for decades about the impacts of their product.

When I started reporting on climate change, the prediction was the Arctic could be sea-ice-free in summer by the 2070s. Now? By the 2030s. https://t.co/iSA52WS4YD

Leonard Matlovich was a decorated Vietnam War veteran with a Purple Heart and a Bronze Star. He was also the first gay American service member to purposely out himself to the military in order to fight their ban on gay people. However, despite his impeccable record, the United States Air Force discharged him after he came out to his officers. Undeterred, Matlovich became a fierce advocate for the rights of the LGBTQ community. In 1975, he was featured on the cover of "TIME" magazine, making him a symbol for gay service members and gay Americans as a whole. When Matlovich passed away in 1988 from HIV/AIDS complications, his headstone was inscribed with the following words: "When I was in the military, they gave me a medal for killing two men and a discharge for loving one."

Our nation is a battlefield, and our young people are the targets.

I’m disgusted witnessing yet another mass shooting in America, this time in Virginia near a high school graduation.

Prayers are not enough. Inaction is not an option. We must act and we must act now.
