Saying No to fracked gas & oil infrastructure; Yes to safe, renewable energy now

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

School strike week 100!
100 weeks ago I never would have believed that I’d still be doing this today...

Since then, a lot has happened. Many millions have taken to the streets to continue the decades-long and never-ending fight for climate- and environmental justice. 1/4

A huge victory for the Standing Rock Sioux! Federal judge rules that Dakota Access Pipeline must be SHUT DOWN and emptied while a new environmental review is completed! #NoDAPL #WaterProtectors

Wow. New York's @NYSDEC just rejected Williams Companies water quality application for the #NESE pipeline. Proof that states DO indeed have the power to reject unwanted FERC-approved gas pipelines - which @MassGovernor has denied for years. @FRRACS_MA https://t.co/0J50quWx6K

"If [@NYGovCuomo] really wants to be a leader during a crisis while reaching the goals of his own climate law, he’ll stop with the austerity politics..and...institute a green recovery, which must include banning a​ll​ new fossil fuel infrastructure across the state for good."

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Don't bail out the fossil fuel industry, or the airline industry, or the automobile industry.

Bail out life.

Halt destruction of nature or suffer even worse pandemics, say world’s top scientists https://t.co/pU41YPWoap

This is big: a federal judge just said that the blanket approvals the Army Corps has been giving to new pipelines are illegal. That’s going to throw a lot of projects into legal jeopardy. https://t.co/f8bvcsL1pc

French president Emmanuel Macron on how #COVID19 #coronavirus may lead to action on #ClimateCrisis: "“When we get out of this crisis people will no longer accept breathing dirty air."

Dear @Google, It's time to use your power and influence to #SavethePlanet for everyone alive today and future generations. #ActNow to stop #ClimateEmergency and ecological breakdown.

”I’m very tiny and I am very emotional, and that is not something people usually associate with strength.”

I’m on the cover of the @RollingStone special Climate Crisis Issue.

“We need to care about each other more.”

A warmer planet means more potential for death and illnesses

It means lower air quality, especially in densely populated areas.

Mosquitoes, ticks, and other carriers of infectious diseases can cover a wider geographic range and for more of the year. https://t.co/K28TLwwd3Q

“This is an industry that has always been filled with promoters and stock scams and swindlers and people have made billions when investors have lost their shirts.”

In a bonus episode of #Boomtown, we speak to @bethanymac12 about the fracking industry. https://t.co/sSmXUM3ANu

[People Not Pipelines @PeopleNotPipes]

We're told that, after coming back from the dead in 2019, the fracked-gas Constitution Pipeline project in PA and NY is finally truly dead. Goodbye, @WilliamsUpdates! No more #zombiepipelines https://t.co/J2Vmpz1h0i via @StopThePipeline

#AskBloomberg why he's calling himself a climate hero while he opposes a ban on fracking...

We can't waste our time with a candidate who refuses to take on fossil fuels — let alone one who is trying to buy the election.

FERC has consistently misused the Natural Gas Act to advance the interests of the fossil fuel industry to the detriment of average Americans.
