We are deeply saddened by the news of the passing of P-22, L.A.’s beloved mountain lion. We were just informed that the California Department of Fish and Wildlife made the difficult decision to euthanize him due to the serious injuries he suffered earlier in the week. (1/2)
Rich people flying private jets to UN talks sponsored by Coca Cola that give the fossil fuel industry a huge seat at the table while criminalizing climate activists is NOT the way to stop irreversible catastrophic fossil-fueled global heating. #COP27
When you compare what Biden proposed and what actually passed, it is clear that Democratic leadership prioritized climate investments.
That's a direct result of the the power of the climate movement and electoral pressure applied in 2020.
Anyone have recs for fresh cli-fi - adult or YA novels or short stories? Must be dark (aka realistic) but can be a bit beautiful or hopeful too (for sanity).

This morning, Los Angeles Unified School District announced it will deploy 200 air quality sensors district-wide, in what officials touted as the largest school-based monitoring network in the nation.
@EnglishTeach07 This is 100% not true in California. Check your facts. Charter schools here are public schools with much greater accountability than district schools. Charters can be closed down. District schools have stayed open while systematically failing kids for 100+ years.
Thank you Twitterverse for the snark, sarcasm, and brave sharp tongue for your truth that has made 2021 bearable and always given me something more to consider. I hear you all! 🥳🤬🤣❤️ More and louder in 2022, please. Happy New Year.
We are so excited to announce our new partnership with @audubondebspark to co-operate Los Nogales Nursery. We will be expanding the site and growing locally sourced native plants. Big thanks to center director Marcos Trinidad (@BrownBirder) for welcoming us today.
We are proud to announce a new collaboration with East Yard Communities For Environmental Justice (@eycej). The project will focus on growing and sharing food and installing native plant gardens within the communities of East Los Angeles, Southeast Los Angeles and Long Beach.
We were honored to be included in this incredible snapshot of the challenges our schools, across the nation, are facing with the impact of natural distasters and climate change. Comments by @PlumasUSD & @Placer_COE schools on recent wildfires in CA. Thank you @cpreston!
@bogiestl@YosemiteSteve Awesome! I work with conservation orgs and farmers in regenerative ag to use livestock as part of rebuilding soil health in grasslands. Biodiversity is complicated and precious.
