MCEA has paused its operations. We encourage our members and other clean energy advocates to instead participate in the work of the League of Women Voters of Manatee County's Natural Resources Committee. Learn more at https://t.co/xdlgGUc8ya.

There is no such thing as a "perfect climate activist." Anyone trying to claim they are one is lying to you.

Doing what you can, when you can is enough.

If everyone does what they can, when they can, this problem will be solved in no time. We just need more climate activists.

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

Note that those who contribute the least to the #ClimateCrisis are paying the highest price, around the world. If we do not act now and act decisively, more will suffer.

[Fridays For Future Uganda @Fridays4FutureU]

Those who contributed the least to the #ClimateCrisis continue to suffer the most. Just a few weeks after floods killed people in eastern Uganda; northern and western Uganda are also counting losses.

Most people still don't know how bad global heat and Earth breakdown could get. And powerful people lie and gaslight and downplay to prevent change. And the media is still largely silent. It's maddening. We could lose everything. Time is not on our side and yet we dither

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

We need to take immediate and strong action, yet too many 'leaders' in our world are not only not taking action, they're going the wrong way. #ClimateCrisis

We all need to support the move to a better future where we mitigate the #ClimateCrisis and stop supporting #FossilFuel greed.

Tiny urban forests can help #rewild urban settings and help fight #climatechange. The brainchild of the Japanese botanist Miyawaki is taking his idea global.

We have so many solutions. Let's stop the delays and implement them. #ActOnClimate

Working smarter - this looks like a win for the left on this planet.

Climate crisis, global warming, I think a picture is sometimes worth a thousand words. We need more, many more trees and reforestation and the protection of the remaining forests.💚🌳🌱🌲🍀🌿☘️🌴💚

It is very dangerous to listen to the moderate climate pundits, who benefit personally from pushing status-quo messaging that society is basically on track to stop climate breakdown so don't worry. We need to change deeply and radically and the sooner we do the more we will save.

[Bill McKibben @billmckibben]

34 years and 40 days ago, Jim Hansen broke the news of global warming to the U.S. Senate.

Finally, today, they act

It's late, it's deeply compromised, and it's also a great victory for all who have fought so long and hard.
Such thanks to all of you, and on to the next battles

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

The article lists several things that we can do to help fight the #ClimateCrisis. We don't each have to do all of them but every contribution helps.

[Industrial Evolution Fund @indrevfund]

Here are the secret levers you can pull to help fight climate change.

And for local information, the average daily #heatindex for July has been 101.25. Be hydrated and safe for August please. #ClimateCrisis

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

From around the world, we can hear people crying. We don't need meetings or reports, we need action - now! #ClimateEmergency

[Rose Kobusinge @KobusingeRose1]

Can you hear them cry for their lives? Those are the sounds&voices I want our governments,the Global North, @UN &other stakeholders to have in their heads while discussing&making decisions on climate action.Treat the emergency with urgency. #MbaleFloods #ClimateChangeDisplacement

[ONJOLO KENYA🇰🇪 @onjolo_kenya]

Because Africa is my business; this is Uganda yesternight, peoples houses submerged due to heavy downpour.
maybe you will understand why we call on climate action!!!

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

To delay action and to expand #fossilfuel's stranglehold on our environment.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Thirty years ago, US Democrats & Republicans were on the same page when it came to climate change. Within 15 years, it had become - and remains - the most politically polarized issue in the country. How? The result of deliberate and strategic investment in doubt to delay action.

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

If this is the best that is politically possible, we are in extreme danger #ClimateEmergency A very good recap from @ClimateHuman. But I agree, too little, too late.

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

Here are some thoughts on the pros and cons of the new climate deal.🧵

Keep in mind that the main cause of climate breakdown is burning fossil fuel, so to stop the irreversible damage we need to ramp down the fossil fuel industry. The faster we do this, the more we'll save.

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

In June in Bradenton, FL, our average daily heat index was 98.27 degrees. And we have had 6 days of a heat index over 104. And we are certainly not alone - this is dangerous to life. #ClimateEmergency

[Manatee Clean Energy Alliance @CleanManatee]

Agreed - the dangers are to the life on this planet. Humans had the power to care for the environment but we are so arrogant that we think we are above nature. We are not. And nature is taking revenge. #ClimateCrisis

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Not the planet. This ball of rock will be orbiting the sun long after we're gone. It's a threat to us humans, whose entire civilization was built on the assumption of a stable climate, and most of the incredible diversity of other living things who share this planet with us.
