I ponder sustainability for my self, household, community & Earth

Did you know that you speak Taíno? 😱 Because #Taíno was the first #NativeAmerican language that Europeans encountered in 1492, it became part of every #language in the world. Here are just a few Taíno words we use in English. 💬

Tweet back if you’ve used any of them.

@TLILanguages even in #Hungarian we use hurrikán, kenu, etc

[Transparent Language @TLILanguages]

Passing #Taíno to the new generation is one of my missions in life. Check out kids 📚, such as “Once in Puerto Rico" by Pura Belpré or those published by @casaareyto.

Indigenous resistance has stopped or delayed GHG pollution of at least 25% of annual US & Canadian emissions - wow! Thank you to our brothers & sisters doing such important work.

1/ This #indegenouspeoplesday, I recommend that White folx read this book, Braiding Sweetgrass, by Robin Wall Kimmerer. Not only is it beautifully written, it really illuminated for me how colonialism, capitalism, racism, and climate change are all intertwined and one in the same

@nwfilmforum One of my takeaways was that being in naturr and understanding its gifts is absolutely the best way to boost and protect mental health. Forget prozac!

These @ProjectLincoln billboards are up in Times Square.
#Jarvanka don’t want you to see them.
They are threatening to sue.
It’d be such a shame if people decide to retweet it...

Mask not what your country. can do for you. Mask is what you can do for your country.

[Julia @re_thinkgreen]

Awesome idea! #votercise

[Julia @re_thinkgreen]

@TerraCycle @maybellineNYUK @TerraCycleUK Even better, folks are wearing less makeup as they stay home during COVID 😃 Reduce first, right? #EarthWins

@JahanaHayesCT Great job giving instructions, teacher! 😂 Lord knows we need some good teachers to help the young ones fill out the most important worksheet of 2020!!

[Julia @re_thinkgreen]

@JahanaHayesCT The country is not OK. 😭😭😭
I promise you, I will #VOTE and encourage friends and strangers alike to #VoteHimOut2020 so we can Make America Kind Again, or work towards someday being kind.
