An estimated 1.7 million people in Hong Kong – a quarter of the population – defied police orders to stage a peaceful march after a rally in a downtown park. https://t.co/rHKNG5x2aD
Research by University of Wageningen in the Netherlands proves that #FSC certifications produce positive environmental impacts, especially on fauna species richness https://t.co/ZODhdXm4Ik
Absolutely haunting. Incarcerated individuals at a federal detention center in Brooklyn are pounding on their windows trying to get people's attention while they're suffering in the cold. We need answers.

Brazil's new environment minister gave a shocking interview last night on TV where he rubbished legendary environmental activist Chico Mendes and said he was planning his first Amazon trip. https://t.co/aMlF2AFYaX
Based on what I've been hearing from forest ecologists during recent field work on restoration finance, we need a massive ramp up in landscape-scale interventions - which would also improve carbon storage in the long run
This is great. And while cutting methane emissions from oil & gas operations is *crucial*, I find it odd to describe that as one of the "most ambitious policies around the world". Why not phase out production entirely, as New Zealand & others doing? @bradplumer@EnergyInnovLLC
"In the 21st century, environmental policy is economic policy. Keeping the two separate isn’t a feat of intellectual discipline. It’s an anachronism."

Just realized, I wrote something at once v different and similar 1.5 years ago, when the Green New Deal phrase felt like a minimalist and defensive climate program. Now GND talk is about going all in. & it's popular as hell. What a great time to be alive

.@AOC is right: housing & climate crises are our gravest dangers. A #GreenNewDeal can tackle them together w a real housing guarantee:
10 million public, no-carbon homes in 10 years
US history & Red Vienna show how
Can't fight climate chaos w-out a home

Outrageous. We need to literally rebuild the world. The best design work belongs to humanity’s future. Institutions that cede this work to private clients will wither away
I hope this “highly anomalous” cyclone aiming an “atmospheric river” of rain at California doesn’t disrupt our @KQED panel on climate change and California cities tomorrow...
CM @loridroste: "The most dramatic way that we can have an impact on climate change is by building infill housing. We need to build housing near job centers and transit." She says things wildfires and sea-level rise are emergencies that must be addressed with infill. #berkmtg
It’s the red cloth in the middle left that absolutely makes this picture. It’s the kind of beautiful, random, telling detail that so often gets left out of manufactured portrayals of cities...
