Dismaying how few Americans know about the first ever international conference in Colombia next week dedicated to phasing out fossil fuels. Even many hardcore climate activists I organize with don’t know much about it.

EIGHT CHILDREN DIED in a mass shooting in Shreveport, Louisiana this weekend.
Eight children.

We did it… twice!
Very happy.

The three ships of the www.climatejusticeflotilla.org now departing Aruba for the Santa Marta fossil fuel transition conference next week!
To make this a reality, I think we all need to start using framing that is more active like: “I vow to live long enough to be part of forcing them ALL into Nuremberg style trials and to find them guilty”.
We must all become active participants in history instead of observers.
“If” sea levels continue to rise? There is no “if” here.
Incredibly damning that at this moment in history my retirement investment portfolio has unambiguously reached the highest value it ever has.
Any FBI agent carrying out those arrests is a traitor.
April 26 is a day of global action to support the 1st ever conference on phasing out fossil fuels in Santa Marta, Columbia. The Climate Justice Flotilla (www.climatejusticeflotilla.org) has it's own angle on that day! Here is a viewable link to the CJF "call to action"!

I thought maybe it was a kind of Schrödinger’s Strait: a watery entangled probabilistic state that is both open and closed until you try to measure or observe it, and then it collapses into a definite observable state.
The Democrats sense that they're gonna cruise to midterm victory by doing nothing and offering nothing and are using it as a freebie to punch left to make sure the voters don't get any ideas.
Of course we were just posing as Satanists to get under Thiel’s skin (and the skin of his supporters).
You can't repeal a scientific finding nor can a scientific finding die. Nevertheless, we held a memorial service for the EPA's "Endangerment Finding" at the Region 9 offices of the EPA in San Francisco. A good writeup of our tribute to the deceased is here: insideclimatenews.org/news/1504202...

Now do a story on corporate wage threat by companies like Target (which year after year dwarfs the kind of fraud this story is about).
BZ4X lease-holder here. Unless Toyota has significantly changed/updated the Level 3 (“fast”) charging performance of the BZ4X, I recommend considering another model. Using a Level 3 charger with our 2024 model means charging times of around TWO HOURS. Competitive BEVs charge up to 10x faster.
"Rahmstorf, who has studied the Amoc for 35 years, has said a collapse must be avoided 'at all costs'. 'I argued this when we thought the chance of an Amoc shutdown was maybe 5%, and even then we were saying that risk is too high, given the massive impacts. Now it looks like it’s more than 50%.'"

"You're spending taxpayer dollars to drink milk shirtless in a hot tub with Kid Rock. Somehow you think that's a better public health message than informing the public about the benefits of vaccines. Really? -- Rep. Linda Sanchez to RFK Jr
Even protecting naturally arid land is important for mitigating climate.

We need to protect open spaces such as grasslands and forests if we want to stabilize the climate and if we want to stop the collapse of biodiversity (that is, if we want to survive). www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Well, also, we need to preserve as many open fields as we can.
Yes, they are morons. But they are morons who will absolutely assault, torture, imprison and kill us if they can.
“Extreme heat is already creating ‘nonsurvivable’ conditions for humans in heatwaves that have killed thousands and likely many more, according to new research that warns people are more susceptible to rising temperatures than first thought.” Via @motherjones.com #ClimateCrisis #UrbanHeat
Indeed - this wasn’t something that was just members of @srti.bsky.social ! (Though the press output made it look that way!)
People that worked on this for many weeks include the “Lamentors” affinity group, members of @xrsfbay.bsky.social, other SF Bay climate affinity groups and local activists…
I pay every penny I owe in taxes, but I must say that this year really felt like a gut-punch on account of all the illegal shit that the federal government is doing with our hard-earned money
