"It really leaves people in this twilight zone, where what’s real, and what’s important, and what is going to affect their daily lives is just being obfuscated.”

Why ERASE all the scientific data we've amassed about the climate?
"to boost the fossil fuel industry at a time when clean energy has become competitive and the reality of climate change harder to dismiss, as floods, fires, and heat waves have become perceptibly worse."
✨ Without a doubt, this is a difficult moment. But we can't give up. ✨
As we enter Shabbat, wishing everyone the courage to find hope, healing, and renewed commitment to action for a livable future.
Shabbat Shalom!
Yeah, last week was a blow for the climate. Do we give up?
“Don’t be a quitter! Why are we giving up on the future of life on Earth so fucking easily? Where is our tenacity? Where is our fortitude? We can do hard things.”

It's about our retirement.
It's about our children and grandchildren.
It's about our communities facing the ravages of climate disasters.
Which means: It's about our money, and what it's buying.
And we need to buy a clean energy future.
➡️ New op-ed: Retirement security doesn’t stop at savings—it’s about the world we retire into. We need to ⬆️ investments that build a clean & equitable future. BlackRock, public pensions & peers must do more to help us #retire with dignity. #climatechange

It’s hard to overstate how damaging the budget reconciliation bill truly is.
It gives massive tax breaks to the wealthiest and Big Oil & Gas, while forcing the rest of us to face cuts to Medicaid, more pollution, and accelerating climate devastation.

FEMA is being cut at exactly the moment that the climate crisis is causing more frequent and intense weather across the country -- including flash floods, hurricanes, heat waves and wildfires.

Our hearts break for the loss of life and devastation in Central Texas. Our fists clench in fury as politicians in DC have yet again prioritized corporate greed over the American people ✊💔
Now, more than ever, we MUST take swift, collective action. https://t.co/m395jzkYiV
It's clear as day (not near a coal plant):
Coal is the dirtiest fuel, and is expensive and deadly.
So why are banks still pouring money into it?
https://t.co/424n3O0CfU
Check out this latest report on banks & coal.
It's time we aligned our money with our morals and our vision.
Our hearts break for the tragic loss of life in Texas.
And our fists are clenched in fury as politicians have again prioritized corporate greed over the American people.

Shout out to 400+ actors in SAG-AFTRA who are calling for getting pension fund money OUT of fossil fuel companies.
"This is bad not just for the planet but for the wallets of every member of our union."

The Torah is clear: if you cause damage, you should pay for it, not get a billion dollar tax handout.
We MUST hold fossil fuel companies to account for the destruction of our climate; and make them pay taxes on the outlandish profiteering they do at our expense.
