How did we make it through a 3-hour #DemDebate that included a question about “Who is your friend?” but not “How are you saving our planet?”

#ClimateCrisis #ClimateActionNow

[Jay Inslee @JayInslee]

Not one single question about the climate crisis.
Not one single question about the climate crisis.
Not one single question about the climate crisis.

This is the existential crisis of our time. Not one single question, and that’s completely inexcusable. #DemDebate

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

Some of the great #climatecomm work coming out of @UWPCC

[Sunrise Movement 🌅 @sunrisemvmt]

In a moral & rational society our political leaders would be declaring a state of emergency and rallying the nation to turn the ship around.

They won't unless we make them. https://t.co/aZmMp2fXh1

The future doesnt have to be bleak, and it can include everyone. Highly recommend watching the whole video #ActOnClimate #GreenNewDeal

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Climate change is here + we’ve got a deadline: 12 years left to cut emissions in half.

A #GreenNewDeal is our plan for a world and a future worth fighting for.

How did we get here?
What is at stake?
And where are we going?

Please watch & share widely ⬇️

Hundreds of thousands of people are newly homeless in Mozambique after #Idai. Response is a disaster. Imagine if instead of choking the airwaves with non stop chatter about a report no one has read, cable news actually covered the global climate crisis https://t.co/DMlQndlqN3

The more you know

[Project Drawdown @ProjectDrawdown]

Total emissions for a white cotton shirt from field to customer are 80 lbs of CO2.
Hemp is a global warming solution, as it outproduces cotton or trees by factors of 10 to 100 times in terms of yielding usable fiber.
China already gets this.

Tonight! @ClimateTap and grad students from the @UWPCC present the inaugural Schooner Series: "But where is all the global warming?" Come hear from some amazing grad students about how recent cold weather events fit into the broader context of climate change! @flyingbikecoop 7pm!

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

@RobinMcLachlan YES! Well-deserved 👏🏼

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

The research behind this piece really inspired some new #ClimateOptimism. Strong, amazing women pushing for equally strong and amazing change. Added bonus: I got to write the piece with one of my very best friends, and someone I look up to in the climate field #WomenInSTEM

[UW Marine Affairs @SMEAatUW]

#UWCurrents celebrates the in(di)visible women of climate change, in the latest blog from @stote_al and @find_zoe: https://t.co/zmShLcJH4V #WomeninSTEM #ActOnClimate #ClimateAction #Women4Climate #ClimateChange

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

@SenSchumer @senatemajldr Bravo, but please replace your use of "believe" with "understand."

We need to change the rhetoric around climate change from "believing" it exists and "believing" its caused by humans and "believing" we need to find a solution. All 3 are urgent TRUTHS, not simply chosen beliefs

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

But.. makes you think about perceived risk vs. actual risk

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

Imagine if we took climate change as seriously as we're taking this 18-hr snow storm 🤔

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

Dont get me wrong-- I'm not trying to downplay storm preparedness. Please be safe and cautious as the storm unfolds

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

Penned by @tressaarbow, a new addition to Twitter!

[Alex Stote @stote_al]

An informative op-ed about systematic challenges with curbing emissions from meat and dairy industries and a reminder that humans don't need to cut animal products entirely to support a healthier diet for themselves and the planet! #balance

@realDonaldTrump please ask questions if you don't understand the TRUE crisis we are facing. #ActOnClimate #GreenNewDeal

[Al Gore @algore]

.@NASAGISS just confirmed that the past 5 years were the 5 hottest ever recorded. This also means that 18 of the 19 hottest years have occurred since 2000. It’s clear: The climate crisis is still getting worse faster than we are yet implementing the solutions.
