#GCgoesGreen salutes @GeorgiaCollege for addressing the current #HeatWave affecting our campus. We are scaling back our activities and keeping buildings cool by #ClosingBlinds and #TurningOffLights. You can help too!

Plastic gets into our lungs and even our brains.
They are in our food, they are in everything, and everywhere, from bottom of ocean to top of tallest mountain.
Less than 5% of plastics in U.S. recycled, and rest burned, landfilled, or on land or oceans

The beauty of starlings. This hypnotizing murmmation as hundreds, if not thousands, of starlings fly in intricately coordinated patterns through the sky.

Nature is more amazing. Protect it in all its forms.

Give your real Christmas tree a second life – don’t throw it away! Many @kabtweet affiliates host tree #recycling events, often turning them into mulch. Check locally! #RecycleTrees #BeRecycled

[Climate Analytics @CA_Latest]

Glasgow did not close the gap between where we are headed & where we need to be in terms of #emissions reductions in 2030.

The different announcements (NDC updates & sectoral initiatives) would close it by +/- 25%.

From yogurt to baby food, just a few corporations have a tight monopoly over our food supply – driving up prices & making our current system unsustainable. Read more about the economic cost of food monopolies in this new report from @foodandwater.⬇️ https://t.co/7lTtEOdyXp

South Korea, built this bike lane covered by #solar panels. Cyclists are isolated from traffic, protected from the sun, and produces #cleanenergy at the same time!

We have the solutions, implement them. #ActOnClimate
