“What does it mean to be an activist? What does it mean to speak up? I think it means to be creative. Creativity is looking at something and seeing how it could be more beautiful, how it can work better.”
Loved listening to this @xiyebastida.bsky.social interview.

The belief that economic growth can continue amidst climate catastrophe "is based on nothing...It upholds two doctrines above all: that the economy is separate from nature & that technology can do all the work of ecosystems."— @doctorvive.bsky.social
Earth's thriving is the root of all good.
Such good news!
I had the honor of being keynote speaker at The Nature Conservancy’s Leadership Gathering in Mérida
I spoke about Indigenous wisdom and worldviews being an integral part of climate and planetary science

Hola a la comunidad Mexicana en BlueSky! 🇲🇽
Mi nombre es Xiye Bastida y soy una activista por la justicia climática.
Mi sueño es que las ciénagas de Lerma estén limpias y protegidas! Adelante por comunidades vibrantes y una Madre Tierra sana.
Not to mentions that every post on Twitter was filled with bots that made dialogue impossible
I am so heartened to see the thriving climate community over here— about two months ago I was kicked out of Twitter with no explanation
It is clear that suppression of climate science and communication is on the rise, I will tell everyone I know to join BlueSky for climate 🙌
