Coco Gauff says she believes in climate change & can’t be mad at the protesters:

“I believe in climate change. I don’t know exactly what they were protesting.. I 100% believe there are things we could do better. Would I prefer it not happening in my match? 100%. It is what it is.. moments like this are history defining moments. I wasn’t pissed at the protesters. I always speak about preaching what you believe in. It was done in a peaceful way. I can’t get too mad at it.. if that’s what they felt they needed to do to get their voices heard I can’t really get upset at it.” ❤️

Planning on seeing Oppenheimer this weekend? Well, I have an important update on the story the movie didn’t tell.

The film showed a remote test site in the New Mexico desert. An isolated area 210 miles south of Los Alamos, according to government accounts.

Not quite. 🧵

Good morning.

Fossil fuel companies are trying to kill you—yes, you—right now as you read this tweet.

They know their product kills people, but they're still polluting the air you're inhaling right now and they're getting really rich doing so.
