Hydrogen is the stuff of dreams: it could be used to boil steel & produce all kinds of chemicals without emitting greenhouse gases. Power heavy trucks with fuel cells & even fire aircraft engines. One question remains: where will this hydrogen come from? https://t.co/tUgIYriKer

I truly hope that Michael Moore does not succeed at dividing the climate movement. Too many have fought too long to build it.

"The film is so dangerous, so wildly off-track and full of misinformation, fossil fuel industry taking points, and unfounded, wacky statements you could be forgiven for thinking it was created by Breitbart" https://t.co/UBJWdvLL0D

"the pandemic has been accompanied by an infodemic of nonsense, disinformation, half-truths and conspiracy theories that have spread virally through social networks. This damages society in a variety of ways" write @johnfocook & @STWorg https://t.co/QBZCQzWQy4 @ConversationUS

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

The coronavirus crisis teaches two critical climate lessons:

1 We can afford a Green New Deal.

2 When we agree as a society that something is an emergency, we come together to address it.

The only thing blocking climate action is our collective choice not to act.

Heartbreaking. Two health care professionals, both 29 both were infected by the coronavirus and only one survive. The impact of the virus is unpredictable.

Every journalist knows that a single death is a tragedy, a million a statistic. 68,000 people have recovered from the coronavirus outbreak, while nearly 5,000 have died. @vwang3 and I zoom in on two of them: two 29-yr-old female medical workers from Wuhan. https://t.co/ilmkVqLJyN

FT: “Big US fund managers that have promoted their credentials in tackling sustainability issues have done little to support environmental & social shareholder proposals, their voting records reveal.” This exasperates investors engaging on climate change. https://t.co/IEclZL7JAC

May we all stand in solidarity with the people of Hong Kong as they speak out for democracy, freedom from repression, and a world they long to see.

Wondering if your work matters? For decades Exxon was the biggest company on earth. Now it's slid out of the top 10.
Oil and gas is the worst-performing sector of the market.
And that's before they have to pay up for destroying the climate

This tweet has been an interesting social experiment. A large number of men have felt compelled inform me that wind turbines break down and even catch fire. You are missing the point by a mansplaining mile, my dudes 😬

[Mark Campanale @CampanaleMark]

Fracking is neither a climate solution nor an economic blessing. "Somehow a bitumen pipeline has become part of Canada's plan to tackle the climate crisis. Fracked gas, is being touted as a climate solution. It's twisted logic." https://t.co/dlxrAzrZLX via @georgiastraight
