See if you're in our new website made by Jessian Choy (@FunAndDraconian) possibly in the middle of a drum circle SustainabilityCoalition.org ;)
New mission, $4K for you, jobs, events, #ActivistToolkit, magazine.
Anyone can join our nonprofit to pressure decisionmakers in any sector.
A core tenet of #sustainability and #climate work is #racialjustice. Higher education is a privilege. It is the role of students to leverage this privilege to dismantle the systems of oppression and inequality not only in our institutions, but also our communities.
It is time to educate ourselves, commit to intersectionality and permanently incorporate anti-racism into every step of our work.
Please join us in exploring and internalizing the resources found at racialequitytools.org/ and taking action at blacklivesmatters.carrd.co/

The UC announced that they will be divesting from #fossilfuels in Sept. With a $70 billion pension fund & $13.4 billion endowment this is a major win for @FossilFreeUC student activists. CSSC alumni @EmilyLyWilliams & Theo LeQuesne write on the decision: thenation.com/article/califo…
Cal State Student Association @csustudents—which represents the CSU student body—voted on a resolution calling for a #GreenNewDeal! We thank Humboldt State for helping us introduce it! Acknowledge all who contributed to the effort & hope this win inspires conversations elsewhere!
The #student and #youth-led movement builds on the momentum of the increasingly Black and Brown leadership behind the #GreenNewDeal. #ClimateJustice #YouthClimateStrike #ActOnClimate yesmagazine.org/planet/clima…
Tomorrow, we're joining #students around the world who are striking from school demand lawmakers take legislative action to combat the #climatecrisis. Find a March 15 #YouthClimateStrike near you & and text CLIMATE to 383-83 to contact your lawmaker: bit.ly/2TAIpTZ
#Students around the country are mobilizing around the #YouthClimateStrike this March 15. There will be a mass webinar TODAY at 5pm for more information about how to get involved: bit.ly/climatestrikecall #ClimateJustice #GreenNewDeal youthclimatestrikeus.org/
In what ways will @HenrySternCA's California #GreenNewDeal resolution mirror & contrast with the national resolution introduced by @AOC & @SenMarkey? We welcome this development & are eager find out more details! proclaimerscv.com/2019/03/04…

Today, @CALPIRG students flooded the Capitol to urge our colleagues to acknowledge California’s #ClimateEmergency and demand aggressive action towards 100% clean energy and carbon neutrality. We’re fired up...if you couldn’t tell.

2018 IPCC report, p. 61: "Every year's delay before initiating emissions reductions decreases by approximately two years the remaining time available to reach zero emissions on a pathway still remaining below 1.5C"
Young people are overwhelmingly #students. The timeline of #climatechange puts most of us on the frontlines of the #climatecrisis. Yesterday's exchange with @SenFeinstein exemplifies why decision-makers should listen to #youth. @sunrisemvmt newyorker.com/news/daily-com…

BREAKING: Following this morning's rally of over 100 people, 15 youth met with @SenFeinstein urging her to support @AOC's resolution for a #GreenNewDeal. Her response was deeply disappointing. Read our full statement here:

We have over 100 people here on a Friday morning urging @SenFeinstein to support a #GreenNewDeal. We have just 12 years to address the climate crisis. It’s time to step up. #NoExcuses
TOMORROW: Our own @SenFeinstein has not yet committed to voting in favor of the #GreenNewDeal resolution. Let's show up at her office to DEMAND that she back it!
#ClimateJustice #ActOnClimate #Students
Join us Friday as we demand @SenFeinstein stand with the majority of Californians and champion the #GreenNewDeal Register here: bit.ly/feinsteinrally #SenateSprint

Sen. Feinstein still doesn't know where she stands on the #GreenNewDeal, but the young people who turned up at her office today sure do! 📣📣📣
Luckily, we're having a Town Hall meeting for her on 3/3! @SenFeinstein, we'd love to hear what your plan is! bit.ly/2T6Koyp

The #GreenNewDeal resolution introduced by @AOC is backed by 95 members of Congress, but not our own Sen Feinstein!
Come to a Phone Blitz in Oakland or SF, Thurs, 7:30 PM to call & tweet @SenFeinstein, urging her to support a Green New Deal!
