@PvtMcAuslan @CharlieJGardner They were wrong in that the more optimistic low end and middle of the road projections are being overshot. Unfortunately most high end CO2 and temperature increase projections are being met or exceeded.

I’m staggered by the lack of reaction to the IPCC report. There’s almost no significant action. I don’t think we can get it until the media screams the full truth to the public & I see almost no one in the media who understands that this is true: New tactics needed urgently.

@PaulShriber @PoliticsVerse We were poorer 2 years ago than 6 years ago, in more ways than dollars.

@Poisonsong @PoliticsVerse Plus one seat.

@elonmusk No way. He is much better at being Former President.

Congrats to Ed Mazria. Ed, you were a pivotal mentor to me starting in the early 1980's with publication of the Passive Solar Handbook, and your work continues to influence my career on its continuous path to ever greater sustainability.

That quote is still as true as it ever was. Now I prefer to rephrase that, "Sustainability is about people, planet and prosperity". Events over the past year have made it abundantly clear people can't prosper without a healthy, resilient world that enables care for all.

Congrats to everyone for developing such compelling pledge statements. You're all amazing colleagues and friends. Well done.

@realDonaldTrump @NBCNews Another Trump low point; condoning murder because Mike Huckabee doesn’t like his cable tv service.

Green Schools Quest https://t.co/HCufKLsyDL. Congratulations to Principia School for your fantastic Green Schools Quest projects (and for your recognition as winners). I love the focus on the UN Sustainable Development goals & for incorporating sustainability in your lives.

@KLewisGreenGirl And with that in mind we are all here to keep each other. We designers have that professionally responsibility. We humans have that critical imperative.

[Joe Scarborough @ScarboroughNow]

As much as I have appreciated the kindness shown by old friends and colleagues today, I assure you that my family is incredibly blessed and asks only that you pray for Lori’s family tonight. May God also soften the hearts of those who continue to slander this good woman’s memory.

If President Trump doesn’t like Twitter, he can do everyone a favor and stop tweeting.

[Ralph Bicknese @rbicknese]

Thank you @billmikibben for all the truths you have brought to millions and empowering others to spread truth about the dire need to slow/stop human induced climate change and for showing many ways to achieve success. The future CAN be positive, together.

[Bill McKibben @billmckibben]

I truly hope that Michael Moore does not succeed at dividing the climate movement. Too many have fought too long to build it.

My 8yo is in an ER bed right now. He’s scared and ALONE without his mom. Not even allowed his 🧸 because of #COVIDー19

And you’re mad because you can’t go to the beach?!

@Kgifford2 @snowmanomics @SenPolehanki They are terrorists, using their weapons as threats. They seem not to have the ability to use speech and reason to communicate.
