I just mustered up every ounce of courage to interrupt White House Press Secretary @K_JeanPierre and urge the Biden Administration to stop approving new coal, oil, and gas projects.

The climate crisis is here now. @POTUS, listen to Gen-Z, scientists, and frontline communities

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

Weapons of war don’t belong on the streets of a civilized society.

We need leaders like the Tennessee Three who have the courage to act in statehouses and in the U.S. Congress.

You can't call yourself a leader if you don’t have the courage to know what’s right and to act.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Today on Black Friday is the perfect day to sue the state over its insufficient climate policies.

So that’s what we did.

See you in court!

🌍 Karan Jerath

Karan is the youngest member on the 2016 Forbes' 30 Under 30 Energy List, and is a United Nations Young Leader for the SDGs. His invention for cleaning up subsea oil spills has earned him the @Society4Science Intel Foundation Young Scientist Grand Award.

[Lewis Hamilton @LewisHamilton]

From the thousands of jobs in Formula 1, only 1% of employees are from Black backgrounds. The Hamilton Commission aims to change that.

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Meanwhile the people in power call themselves "climate leaders" as they open up new oilfields, pipelines and coal power plants - granting new oil licenses exploring future oil drilling sites.
This is the world they are leaving for us.

[Karan Jerath @karan_jerath]

It’s time we end the $15 billion in handouts fossil fuel corporations get from the government every year 👀

[Unearthed @UE]

REVEALED: How Exxon held back climate action for decades, and is still doing it today. We went undercover with Exxon’s lobbyists to expose the truth. Watch and share.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

Reminder that fossil fuel corporations rely on $15 billion in handouts from the government to line their pockets.

We need to end this corporate welfare!

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Imagine having the ganas to go home and ask minimum wage workers to support you after going back on your own documented stance to help crush their biggest chance at a wage hike during their longest drought of wage increases since the law’s very inception. Sin vergüenza.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

Today, America is officially back in the Paris Climate Agreement. Let’s get to work.

[Michael E. Webber @MichaelEWebber]

A TX Senator in Cancun while Texans freeze in the dark.

A TX governor blaming the Green New Deal for the failure of Texas’ gas-dominated grid.

A rich powerful state that is one of the largest energy producers in the world running short on energy.

We need new leadership...

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

My mother was a cancer scientist. It was a shock when she herself was diagnosed with cancer. She passed away a year later.

On this World Cancer Day, @POTUS and I are committed to supporting the scientists, researchers, and health care workers devoted to fighting this disease.

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

Defunding the police isn’t radical, it’s real.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

I dunno, if you’re a politician that thinks ending discrimination is “divisive,” you might not want to publicly advertise that

[Cori Bush @CoriBush]

Abolish ICE.

[Ana Cabrera @AnaCabrera]

NEW: President Biden wants to remove the word "alien" from US immigration laws and replace it with the word "noncitizen"

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Congratulations to my friend, President @JoeBiden! This is your time.
