Lawyer, Adj. Prof — My comments are *not* legal advice. RT = interesting. *Die Hard is a Xmas movie.* Let’s save the planet! 🙏🏼

As lawyers, we need to do better—much better.

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

Millions of people have been forced to flee around the world.

Behind every figure is a person who’s fled violence, war or persecution. Many are still waiting for safety and stability.

🚚✈️🚢 5,000 trucks, 80 planes, 190 ships — on the move every single day.

That’s how we deliver life-saving food to the world’s toughest places.

💙 Help us reach families who need aid most.

🚨 As the Ebola outbreak spreads in #DRCongo, coordinated action is critical.

WFP is working closely with the Government of DRC, @WHO and partners to facilitate the movement of frontline responders, medical supplies, telecommunications equipment and essential cargo.

[UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency @Refugees]

It's because of war.
It's because of violence.
It's because of persecution.
It’s a heartbreaking decision that 41.6 million people have made to flee across borders to find safety.

Melissa and Mark remind us that public service is not just for elected officials—it’s for all of us.

I have proclaimed June as Public Service Month and encourage all Minnesotans to do an act of service in their honor.

El Niño, a climate pattern linked to warmer ocean temperatures and more extreme weather, is expected to emerge between this June and August. It could contribute to another exceptionally hot year, with consequences for billions of people around the world who depend on healthy oceans for their livelihoods, food security and well-being.

People who live with these impacts every day must be part of the decisions that affect their communities and their future. Their experience and knowledge should help shape decisions related to the environment and oceans governance. That is what human rights look like in practice.

A grave protection crisis is unfolding in South Sudan’s eastern Jonglei State.

Months of violence and instability have forced hundreds of thousands from their homes.

With shelter, healthcare and clean water in short supply, needs are soaring.

I hope all of you have a wonderful and relaxing weekend. And as always, please be good to each other.

El Niño is arriving on our doorstep in the coming months with 90% certainty.

The world must treat it as the urgent climate warning it is.

The only effective response is #ClimateAction equal to the crisis – ending the addiction to fossil fuels, accelerating the shift to renewables, protecting the most vulnerable, and delivering early warning systems for all.
