It's going to be a beautiful day to ask the mayor: If you don't use AI, why are you making our kids use it?
Gov Hochul is breaking NY's climate law — and when she got pushed to follow the law by enviro groups, instead of doing the right thing and protecting NYers from the climate crisis and fossil fuel greed, she's now choosing to destroy our state's climate protections.

Hey, NYC! Sick of "A.i." getting pushed into everything?
Here's a rally for an A.I. Moratorium for NYC Schools, Thursday April 16, 4 pm, City Hall Park!
High five to @climatefamsnyc.bsky.social @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social @comradeswkids.bsky.social and others for organizing!
I recently had my first ever meeting with my state senator & assembly member, as part of @climatefamsnyc.bsky.social's push to get NY's plug-in solar bill (the SUNNY act) passed.
Holy moly why are we letting these tech bros torch our planet for their propaganda plagiarism machines! And why are @nycschools.bsky.social allowing this garbage in classrooms? @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social

Today in Brooklyn, dozens of children and families marched to @schumer.senate.gov’s to say #NoWar & #NoTrump.
All the children are ours. Every single one.
🔥 Hot off the press 🔥
NY Renews in @sierramagazine.bsky.social on Gov. Hochul's attempts to roll back the climate law (and why we think her arguments are in bad faith)

The need to remove him from office is just as strong as it was two hours ago.
What if the United States had a Congress?
Let's all go to this, NYC! Grand Army Plaza at 5 pm!
Families art build and rally for peace, 5 pm tonight in grand army plaza bk
Wake up everyone. We cannot be silent while the president of the United States threatens to destroy an entire country. What will you tell your kids you did in this moment?
“A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” -Trump
Article III
The following acts shall be punishable:
(a) Genocide;
(b) Conspiracy to commit genocide;
(c) Direct and public incitement to commit genocide;
(d) Attempt to commit genocide;
(e) Complicity in genocide.
It is appalling that Dems in Congress are not putting forward fresh articles of impeachment every day to force the issue of the president as manifestly unfit clear and present danger regularly into the news that otherwise won’t cover it as such.
This illegal war on Iran is benefitting very few people and screwing everyone else now and in the future.
There is something you can do about all of this — make your plans for May 1. This country needs a united show of power, energy, and hope.

We are seven months away from the most consequential midterm election in US history. Meanwhile, we are fighting a war. These are the structural conditions for a coup attempt in which a president tries to nullify elections and take permanent power as a dictator.

AI spreads disinformation and uses massive amounts of electricity and water. The AI boom, if it continues, is shaping up as a bust for climate survival.

Big dilemmas, little time: intergenerational climate justice and public support for deep decarbonisation Manuele Citi Da and Zhen Jie Im b,c *Department of Management, Society and Communication, Copenhagen Business School, Frederiksberg, Denmark; Department of Social Sciences, Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology, Lappeenranta, Finland; Department of International Economics, Government and Business, Copenhagen Business School, Frederiksberg, Denmark ABSTRACT Achieving deep decarbonisation to avoid exceeding the 2°C warming threshold remains challenging due to limited public support, largely driven by immediate economic concerns. This study investigates how the awareness of intergenera-tional climate justice - the unequal distribution of climate-related costs between current and future generations - affects public support for costly decarbonisation policies. A cross-national survey experiment (n = 22,370) across 10 advanced economies reveals that explicitly highlighting disproportionate climate impacts on younger generations significantly increases individuals' willingness to accept near-term economic sacrifices for future climate benefits. Additional exploratory analysis shows that the treatment's effect increases non-linearly at higher levels of income. These findings underline critical temporal biases in public opinion and suggest that emphasizing fairness in sharing climate burdens between generations could effectively enhance public acceptance of economically challenging climate policies. Highlighting intergenera-tional justice thus presents a viable strategy for policymakers seeking stronger public backing for sustainable climate actions.
Yet another study showing that love for our children — and care for future generations more broadly — is a powerful, persuasive climate message, especially when it’s directed at rich people.
This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.
Not much more to say is there
Just a few days ago, America saw the biggest public political demonstration in the nation's history. 8 million people across the country. Virtually no violence, no incidents of any kind. An absolutely remarkable phenomenon.
I'm reminding you because the media's forgotten already.

Breaking🚨: Parents and caregivers just blocked traffic in front of @governor.ny.gov’s office to protest her climate law rollbacks. We won’t stand by while she sacrifices our children for her corporate donors.
