The war in the #Ukraine will not end.

Freedom loving people everywhere should stand in solidarity with the brave Ukrainian people in resisting oppression and totalitarianism.

As antisemitism and other forms of hate continue to spotlight discrimination in the U.S., some researchers say addressing hate and extremism needs to be a priority. https://t.co/Z46K6UoYO2

Hurricane Ian was less a natural disaster than a human-made one. We must stop building on swamps https://t.co/wy4Dwl3RbU

America will almost certainly experience an attempt to redefine its democracy as a theocracy as mad as that sounds. It’s serious & real.

To succeed it must be seen as the lesser of two evils.

It doesn’t take much imagination to see how that might happen

Oh boy…you’re gonna want to sit down for this one. Get comfortable. This is going to require a lot of reading. The pics and links are important. Put your feet up, grab your favorite drink.

Well, they can sing I guess, but apparently they are completely tone deaf #RoeVsWade #SCOTUS @TheDemocrats

[Farnoush Amiri @FarnoushAmiri]

As protesters can be heard in the back chanting outside SCOTUS, House Democrats sing “God Bless America.”

[Robert Reich @RBReich]

I was in law school with Clarence Thomas when Roe v Wade was decided in 1973. Today, Thomas and others violated the doctrine of judicial precedent (without a convincing reason why).

SCOTUS is part of the anti-democracy movement now threatening America.

BREAKING: The government have approved gas drilling in Surrey.

This decision ignores:
❌ - Local democracy
❌ - conservation planning laws
❌ - the climate crisis.
❌ - the real solutions to rising energy bills

Time to #GetOffGas - not drill for more.

These water turbines can create renewable energy 24 days a year, 7 days a week. Designed not to block the natural flow of the river means its environmental impact is minimal.

We have so many solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

[World Resources Institute @WorldResources]

WRI and @googleearth created a tool that pulls #SatelliteData to map how the climate crisis is affecting our world in near real time.

It can even track if one or two trees are cut down in a tropical forest. Learn more from @adele_peters in @FastCompany https://t.co/qGC1ofmjuI

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

California: the fifth largest economy in the world just committed to going 100% renewable energy. Who's next?

We have the solutions. There's no time to waste. Speed it up and implement them. #ActOnClimate

A new, intense and long heat wave in the Middle East has begun. 51.2C/124F in Jahra in Kuwait, is now the highest temperature worldwide in 2022. Surpassing the 51.0C of Jacobabad,Pakistan set last month. The next days may be even hotter.

No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

[Hannah Ritchie @_HannahRitchie]

The problem with the framing: "doing X won't save the planet" is that it applies to everything.

No single thing will solve climate change.

If our threshold for taking action is whether it will singlehandedly solve all our problems, we will do nothing.
