Meet the countries that absorb more carbon than they emit. These are the nations leading the charge to our common future:
Bhutan
Surinam
Panama
Bravo! 👍
Thomas Lovejoy was a leading conservation biologist who worked to preserve the Amazon rain forest. He was also one of the first scientists to link the biodiversity of the rain forests -- and what has been lost to deforestation -- to climate change. https://t.co/HqpJTb4KVq
Mourning passing of friend mentor muse Tom Lovejoy.the world's go-to YES person,the biggest heart, the deepest love & reverence for rainforest and life. Facilitated my trip to his Amazon base camp to research The Great Kapok Tree 'so you can feel it'. helped found YVFP💔no no no
Our hearts go out to everyone who loved and learned from Dr. Tom Lovejoy. He made immeasurable contributions to saving life on Earth, and all who love nature are forever in his debt.
Biden promised to end drilling on public lands, but the fire sale continues.
Yet another sale is planned for Utah this January, including parcels in the San Rafael Swell just outside of Goblin Valley.
These places should be protected, not sold to Big Oil.

"The Biden administration announced plans on Tuesday to open millions of acres for oil and gas exploration." "The sale could ultimately result in production of up to 1.1 billion barrels of crude oil and 4.4 trillion cubic feet of natural gas." #MindTheGap https://t.co/TrVkLpMiR9
@KristinaSaurusR @IslandPress Very important book!! I have an interesting story to share. Years ago from BWI I shared a limo with 2 high-up women at NIH. Asked them why they didn't focus on cancer prevention. They claimed they didn't know cancer was linked to chemical exposure! i quoted Rachel's env news..
@MarkWarner Absolutely right... we must learn lessons from history. Joseph Goebbels propaganda allowed Hitler's rise to to power. I think this is our greatest challenge - to undo the damage that has been done in this country. So many people are living in alternate reality based on untruth.
The fight against conservatives like @MittRomney will be the next climate fight we have to take on.
Mitt you're on the wrong side of history and for someone who says you care about your grandkids so much - you are taking away their future.
@JohnWDean Because they are being so misinformed by Fox News and other social media. It reminds me of the campaign by Joseph Goebbles to bring the Nazis to power. The big debate needs to be about responding to outlets that spread lies and falsehoods. It is a threat to Democracy.
What kind of an example of DEMOCRACY and free expression does this set for our children?? Young people will immediately see the wrongness of this behavior....trying to run a candidate's bus off the highway???!!
CNN’s @jaketapper: “Sick and in isolation, Mr. President, you have become a symbol of your own failures. Failures of recklessness, ignorance, arrogance. The same failures you have been inflicting on the rest of us ... Get well and get it together" #CNNSOTU
Kids, this is an assault on our democracy! speak out! Demand that those post boxes be returned- and the mail in them sent to their intended recipients.
Delaying changes is the least the Postmaster General could do. Rhode Islanders are already seeing late prescriptions, paychecks, benefit payments, and other important mail. Mr. DeJoy needs to repair the damage he and President Trump have done – now.
@grist@JeromeFosterII Jerome is a powerhouse! And he lives and breathes trying to do something about climate change... like, change the politics!! Go Gerome!!
@kars1960@AlexandriaV2005 I'd prefer spending time changing laws, changing minds, protecting nature, and making a positive difference in the world than I would watching TV or playing video games. It's fulfilling and makes me happy. https://t.co/njGMr8NmOO
