Flippy, the whale, needs painting. Our life-size whale sculpture travels to schools to teach kids about plastic pollution. Can you help us get him spruced up before his next visit to Ware Elementary? #PlasticPollution

"The coronavirus pandemic is likely to be followed by even more deadly and destructive disease outbreaks unless their root cause – the rampant destruction of the natural world – is rapidly halted, the world’s leading biodiversity experts have warned."

BREAKING NEWS on our Supreme Court case representing @WOTCHinc . The judge has just extended the interlocutory injunction to cover an additional 13 areas of forest. That's 26 areas in total protected from logging while the case proceeds - a huge win for our forests and wildlife!

School strike week 88.
Today we had planned a global climate strike with millions taking part. But in an emergency you have to adapt and change your behaviour.
The climate crisis is still ongoing and we must fight every crisis.

Family owned forests are untapped powerhouses in climate mitigation. A generous $10M donation from @amazon , part of their #ClimatePledge, will tap into this potential while creating new income for forest owners. https://t.co/OwMU0k03lC

When I was 14, I went to the 1st #EarthDay in D.C. In those days, it was all about pollution. Today, it’s climate change - and the pandemic. Every astronaut, cosmonaut & taikonaut comes down & reminds us we are all citizens of one world, one planet. It’s up to us to preserve it!

Tell Congress: This crisis has brought out the best in us. We expect the same from you. It’s time for a better future.

[Sunrise Movement 🌅 @sunrisemvmt]

The first #EarthDay was held in 1970.

It sparked unprecedented government action that protected us, the air, water and environment around us from corporations that were trying to profit off of our extinction.

Now, 50 years later, we need government action more than ever.
