BREAKING: a source close to the situation has told us that the APF and Mayor's office are paying nearly 50 staffers and/or firemen to come to the City Hall tomorrow morning to speak in favor of Cop City. For this reason, we are advising community members to come earlier in the AM

A US city received $500,000 to remove lead pipes – and still hasn’t spent it https://t.co/pIAlhp2pXo Really important article and ht to @NRDC and @greenwatchdogNY for outstanding work on this issue. Clean Water is a Basic Human Right.

#CopCity's permit violates sediment regulations, endangering Intrenchment Creek, the South River and neighboring community. Clear-cutting the forest would bring catastrophic flooding to southwest Dekalb.

Let the Zoning Board of Appeals know.

Tulare Lake, once the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River is re-emerging in California's San Joaquin Valley due to huge runoff generated by heavy precipitation in California this winter.

As California's snowpack melts, the lake is expected to grow even bigger.

Nebraska state Senator Machaela Cavanaugh has filibustered every single piece of legislation that has come to the floor over a bill that would ban doctors from providing gender-affirming medical care to minors. https://t.co/fNqQD943Ux

Major news. Minnesota's House has passed the trans refuge act!

This bill, if it passes the Senate, will protect trans people fleeing from other states for their care. It protects from subpoenas and more!

Gov Welz has already enacted part of this with an EO, but this goes far!

"Civil liberties groups and defense attorneys say officials levied the disproportionate charges to scare off others from joining a movement that has only grown since January, when a 26-year-old known as Tortuguita was killed by a state trooper"

Yesterday 8 Cop City protesters were denied bond, and may be forced to sit in jail until trial. No actual evidence was presented against any of the defendants. The judge's decision was based on innuendo and unsupported claims from the prosecutor. What's going on here? [thread]

[Ellie Irons @eirons]

See you there? 🌳💚

HUGE. @EPAMichaelRegan announces new @EPA proposed drinking water standards for PFOA & PFOS at 4 ppt each - lower than any individual state standard in place - AND the regulation of four other #PFAS using a combined hazard index: HFPO (GenX), PFNA, PFHxS & PFBS.

Saying this is a TikTok thing is just... wrong. This movement started with Alaska Native people and Alaska residents who are fighting to protect the land and the planet they deeply care about.

[Fridays For Future USA @FFFUnitedStates]

We need aggressive environmental protections AND concrete plans to divest from + stop fossil fuel development.

This is not enough. @POTUS must #StopWillow.
