@NWS_MountHolly Wow... remember the weird looking sunset yesterday? Smoke from the west coast effecting our skies in the East. #OurPlanetsConnected #wildfires #ClimateChange

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The fires across the West Coast are just the latest examples of the very real ways our changing climate is changing our communities. Protecting our planet is on the ballot. Vote like your life depends on it—because it does.

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

Register to vote! Vote early! Let’s vote for climate, and for progress!

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

The nuance to this is that it will help to keep the trains running during events like hurricane sandy (which will be increasingly common). We can Be resilient without furthering the problem! Seem out nuclear energy. Seek out battery tech. Seek progress and creativity!

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

PSEG is planning on selling their fossil fuel plants, BP is cutting their oil and gas production by 40% (by 2030), and what’s ⁦@NJTRANSIT⁩ doing? investing hundreds of millions into a dying energy source, perpetuating an unhealthy planet. act smart. https://t.co/QWdfkfNtJv

New podcast called “how to save a planet”! The first episode talks about how a town with a recently shut down coal plant is replacing that missing tax revenue and jobs with offshore wind! #energy&climate #jobs https://t.co/PCjZP563DW

[Sierra Club @SierraClub]

The Trump administration wants to unravel #EndangeredSpeciesAct protections for habitat critical to the survival of imperiled species like #orcas, #manatees, & #jaguars. We must #StopExtinction! https://t.co/eOQWfTIttw

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

The Rutgers Climate Task Force is sending around a survey for ALL student, faculty, and staff! Please fill this out! Information gathered from this will be used to make the best possible Climate Action Plan! https://t.co/K3KNHddXq3

[Nuclear Matters @Nuclear_Matters]

#Nuclear energy avoids harmful emissions, uses very little land, and now, a new nuclear energy project in Idaho could operate on 90% less water, thanks to a new dry cooling system from Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems. https://t.co/qY5Rd2lfyl via @NEI

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

@Nuclear_Matters @NEI Incredible step to using nuclear in drought stricken regions, but important to note dry cooling uses more electricity, so the output for the nuclear plant decreases by 5-7% (taken from the article)

[IAEA - International Atomic Energy Agency ⚛️ @iaeaorg]

How can we combat #ClimateChange while ensuring sustainable economic development?

#NuclearPower is one solution.

Also Rutgers faculty union is in the process of suing Rutgers for their expenditures on the athletics program during this time

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

Designed by SEA member Alex Liz, inspired by @RutgersOne‘s campaign to lower tuition in spite of the upcoming online semester! Rutgers has a lot of money, and not transparent enough on where it’s being spent.

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

The vote was meant to be on July 30th but was postponed. Still active!

[RU SEA @Rutgers_SEA]

Your assembly members are going to vote soon! Let them know how you want them to vote! This bill will limit polluting facilities (including power plants) from being located in “burdened communities” #environmentaljustice https://t.co/KLH5s4LBho

“Public Service Enterprise Group is looking to sell off or divest its fleet of fossil-fuel plants” and will “retain its fleet of nuclear plants supplying 90% of the carbon-free electricity used by customers in the [NJ]” #NuclearEnergy https://t.co/f4eiOD7qBO

@PepsiCo @CocaCola we are NOT BUYING IT! You say that you support sustainability, but you are a leader in @USChamber. Push @USChamber to support science-based climate policy. https://t.co/9stgqYU9H8
