The National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) ensures that communities are engaged, & environmental justice & climate concerns are considered.

We applaud today’s announcement by the Biden administration & @WHCEQ to put people over polluters & profits.

Sitting in tonight's the GST negotiations on fossil fuel phase out #COP28.

Here is what countries are saying, using normal human language, a thread 👇

[Ocean Conservancy @OurOcean]

The @HouseAppropsGOP passed a dangerous FY24 appropriations bill that would eviscerate environmental protections, decimate historic climate progress, and—believe it or not—more.

We joined 60+ groups in opposition. Our statement below. @AppropsDems

[Protect All Our Coasts | Stop Ocean Drilling @NoOceanDrilling]

@POTUS is expected to release the final #FiveYearPlan for offshore drilling NEXT MONTH. The Biden admin must #ProtectOurCoast, local communities & wildlife by including #NoNewLeases in the plan.

Our friends at @dfoceans are working in Miami to stop plastic pollution at the source and help eradicate marine debris from our beaches, reefs and ocean. 🌊

Funding this important work is one of the many reasons we're calling on Congress to say #YesNOAA!

[Ocean Conservancy @OurOcean]

We must ensure our ocean is the home of climate solutions, NOT polluting fossil fuel industries. 🌎

But clean ocean energy projects, like offshore wind, can't happen without @NOAA. 🌊

📢 Join us and call on lawmakers to say #YesNOAA!

[Ocean Conservancy @OurOcean]

Whether you know it or not, the world-class work of @NOAA touches the lives of everyone across the U.S., no matter where you live, nearly every day. That's why ensuring this vital agency is fully funded during the next budget cycle is so crucial. #YesNOAA

The ocean is home to an incredible range of life from the vibrant sea slug to the clever octopus. We're joining leaders from around the world at @CBD_COP15 to #ActNow #ForNature and support international policies that protect the biodiversity of our ocean & our planet. #COP15

Learn more about the #DirtyDeal and why it must be opposed:

[Ocean Conservancy @OurOcean]

The #DirtyDeal will dismantle permitting requirements that protect marine ecosystems and frontline coastal communities. It has no place in the #NDAA. We’re grateful to the Members of Congress who have opposed it.

Thank you, @RepRaulGrijalva @RepHuffman @SenJeffMerkley @EdMarkey!

National election days are stark reminders of the injustice of the nearly 700,000 DC residents, who pay the same federal taxes as residents of states, having no voting representation in Congress and only limited, revocable local self-governing authority.
