Garfield Farm

The urban farm at the top of Garfield in urban Pittsburgh. We grow food for our mobile farmers market, the Valley View food pantry and a few local restaurants.

[Pope Francis – ARCHIVE @Pontifex266Arch]

Many countries are experiencing extreme climatic events. I reiterate my appeal to the leaders of Nations, that something more tangible be done to limit polluting emissions: it is an urgent challenge and affects everyone. Let us protect our common home!

[Saul @saaaauuull]

The climate crisis is spiraling out of control. 1000s of fish are washing up dead in the Gulf of Mexico because the water is too hot to hold oxygen. This is a climate emergency.

Night thoughts

For the brevity of our presence here on the planet, we have not covered ourselves with glory.🤔🤔

[Sierra Club @SierraClub]

We are horrified by @Sen_JoeManchin's choice to walk away from any meaningful action on climate and to favor his coal profits over our struggling families and communities.

[Sierra Club @SierraClub]

One lone senator, @Sen_JoeManchin, bought out by his corporate polluters, has selfishly stood in the way of meaningful action to address these crises and enact a plan to reduce harmful emissions and protect our communities that are disproportionately burdened by pollution.

[Sierra Club @SierraClub]

The American people elected @POTUS and a Democratic Congress to enact a bold and urgent agenda to address the crises we face. We have fought tirelessly for well over a year for a package of broad and bold investments in climate, care, jobs, and justice that lowers energy costs.

[Sierra Club @SierraClub]

The Sierra Club will continue the fight to protect our communities from the climate crisis, to support family-sustaining jobs, and to achieve our transition into a 100% clean economy. Failure to act on climate is not an option. https://t.co/DotYed8JUJ

[Saul @saaaauuull]

FYI: Congressional staff will not accept zero climate policy during Democrats’ two years in power, even if Dem leaders will.

We may even put our bodies between Joe Manchin’s greed and the people we serve, if we must. 🤔 The stakes are just too high.

Stay tuned.
