She/her. Climate activist. Organizing and fighting for climate action, Justice and education 💚

[CAN-Rac Canada @CANRacCanada]

The past ten years have seen a revolution in how Canada tackles climate change.

But they've also shown us that climate action cannot succeed without dismantling the fossil fuel industry’s grip on policy.

Although youth activists are less visible than we were in 2019, we are still here, just in new capacities, writes Malaika Collette @CANRacCanada #cdnpoli #NewYorkClimateWeek https://t.co/JAEOHrFv8O

[CAN-Rac Canada @CANRacCanada]

Five years have passed since the massive 2019 climate strikes, but the urgency is greater than ever – and youth activists haven't gone away.

Words to tell yourself and others on days like today.

[Malaika Collette @MalaikaCollette]

Consultation on environmental learning -- open until July 3rd! Input your thoughts!

[Environment Canada @environmentca]

There is still time to share your thoughts on how we can help Canadians understand the #environment, #ClimateChange and #biodiversity.
Act fast! You have until July 3, 2024.

This genocide is changing history.

Longstanding narratives are being laid to rest, buried in the rubble of Gaza.

⛔️Israel guarantees Jewish safety
🙅🏻‍♂️The IDF is "the most moral army in the world"
🚫Canada is an honest broker

My thoughts from a recent @FacultyJewish event:

[Caroline Brouillette @carobrouillette]

I understand why media are asking questions about #COP28 (UAE) and now #COP29 (Azerbaijan) being held in petro-states.

But I'm puzzled that literally no one asked these same questions last year when CBD #COP15 was held in Canada - the 4th largest producer of oil.

[Catherine Abreu @catabreu_]

Draft text from #COP28 dropped this morning at 5am. Here's a look at where we stand on the push for this set of UN climate talks to deliver global agreement to phaseout fossil fuels and scale up renewables and efficiency:

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

There's lots of announcements and news coming out of #COP28. I'm here to rank them for you from a climate scientist's perspective, using 🌴 for the wins and 🤦‍♀️ for the facepalms.

Did I miss something? Let me know and I'll add it to this list! #ClimateAction #COP28FromHome 🧵

[Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East @CJPME]

This Parliamentary Petition calling for a ceasefire has received over 238,500 signatures, making it the most popular petition in Parliament's history! There's still time to add your name before it closes on November 23: https://t.co/61vpLR5oBk #CeasefireNow @alexboulerice

Today on Democracy Now, a guest spoke about the hundreds of people alive but trapped under the rubble in Gaza who are slowly dying.

I can’t stop thinking about being conscious to your own slow death and the level of moral depravity it takes to not call for an end to the bombings

[Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib @RepRashida]

I am the only Palestinian American serving in Congress, and my perspective is needed here now more than ever. I will not be silenced and I will not let anyone distort my words.

I’m from Detroit, where I learned to speak truth to power, even if my voice shakes.

[Emma Jackson @EmmaJackson57]

"We want medicine, food and education. We want to live as the other children live."

@JustinTrudeau and every MP refusing to call for a ceasefire should be forced to look these children in the eye and explain why they're underserving of basic dignity.

NYC 3 months apart. The climate crisis will manifest in hundreds of ways and we need to be ready

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

MAJOR victory today 🎉

In 2021, we proposed the Climate Corps and launched a massive inside-outside organizing effort to win it.

Today, the American Climate Corps has finally come true.

Thank you to @POTUS and the countless communities and organizers who made this a reality💪🏽

AOC at the Climate March

[People vs. Fossil Fuels @FightFossils]

AOC is on fire: We will not give up. We will not let go. We will not allow cynicism to prevail. #ClimateAction #EndFossilFuels

[Marianne Williamson @marwilliamson]

I don’t understand how anyone can support a 2024 Democratic primary candidate who approves the Willow project or exporting LNG from Alaska.

I would cancel both on Day One.

[Sunrise Dallas @sunrisemvmtdtx]

damn, this looks soo cool

are you a high schooler, teacher, or parent? You should apply or send this to a high schooler

[Olivia Chow @oliviachow]

Toronto. I’m running to be your mayor.

I’ve spent my life working to build a better life for people in our city.

Join me and together we will make a Toronto that cares - a city where everyone belongs.
