That means keeping as many people home as possible, starting now."

UN Chief António Guterres warns: don’t let #Coronavirus distract us from fighting the climate crisis.
While #COVID19 is expected to be a temporary scourge, Guterres said that climate change will “remain with us for decades and require constant action.”

Big news this! Sweden's national pension fund divests from all fossil fuels--not just coal, but oil and gas as well.
"An efficient way for the fund to manage the financial risk associated with a transition in line with the Paris agreement.”

"Why are multibillion-dollar airlines held to a budgeting standard that, if it were adopted by a typical American household, would seem totally irresponsible? And why, if they blew through all that cash, should we help them now?"
Don't bail 'em out, ffs.

It’s not just Trump’s incompetence, it’s that for so long the leadership of the world has focused so exclusively on economic growth that a reflexive response to a pandemic crisis, endangering the health of many millions, is to worry about stimulating the economy.
The Trump administration is about to propose a multi-billion-dollar bailout for oil and gas corporations.
I asked the head of the Bureau of Land Management - which oversees #PublicLands drilling - why not fund health instead?
He had no idea and no opinion.
