The largest U.S. action on climate ever is now law! @POTUS has signed the Inflation Reduction Act, putting the U.S. on the path to a 40% reduction in emissions by 2030. Onward to a brighter future for the country and the planet.

Addressing catastrophic wildfires requires not just additional resources but also a new approach. @nytclimate explores how @nature_org's Sycan Marsh Preserve is a living laboratory for managing our forests. @Nature_Fire @nature_oregon https://t.co/Je4Jxk8euP

Managing forests for wildfire can help prevent massive emissions of carbon into the atmosphere. This @nytimes article spotlights how forest treatments by @nature_oregon & its partners helped protect forests in Oregon's Sycan Marsh Preserve. https://t.co/izmhDLye6T

We’re thrilled to announce that three large wildfires—including the Bootleg fire which burned across 413,000 acres for 39 days—are 100% contained as of this morning. Huge thanks to our dedicated & incredibly skilled fire personnel for this great accomplishment.

The bipartisan infrastructure bill passed by the Senate would be the country's boldest investment in clean energy and nature yet – one that will create jobs, build resilient communities and drive our economy. https://t.co/wsR7Lav2Nf

.@PDXParksandRec is working hard to plant trees in areas of town which have far too few of them.

Not sure if you’ve heard of this little production called Hamilton, but it turns out it’s pretty good. You should think about checking it out.

There are lynchings happening all across this country right now. My family is calling me, terrified for my safety because I do research in a region drowning in racism, and I’m scared, too.

The least of my concerns, but this is getting in the way of my research on multiple levels
