In order to move away from carbon-intensive sources of energy, we need a #justtransition based on local #participation, #inclusive processes and #local ownerships.

The purpose of disqualifying Trump from holding public office again isn't to punish him. It is to hold accountable any president who seeks to retain power by unconstitutional means. Failure to do so is an open invitation to future demagogues.
