Hey @POTUS @SenSchumer @Sen_JoeManchin this is the backdrop against which you are approving new fossil fuel projects and weakening bedrock environmental protection laws. History will not look kindly on you. (Nor will voters in 2024.) #stopmvp #EndFossilFuels

Episode 3 of “Under the Pala Pala” brings together 6 Native speakers at the #2022NDiSTEM to talk Indigenous-led conservation. 🌊
Watch @WHOSTP’s Haley Case-Scott talk about the importance of “Using Indigenous traditional ecological knowledge in conservation work”

I have never seen climate carnage on the scale of the floods here in Pakistan.
As our planet continues to warm, all countries will increasingly suffer losses and damage from climate beyond their capacity to adapt.
This is a global crisis. It demands a global response.
This is what we mean by - communities at the forefront of climate change contributed the least to causing it. I would have loved to be wrong about this, but a third of my country is drowning and we were not responsible for climate change

The Indus River is now a 100-kilometer-wide "inland lake" as Pakistan's epic flooding continues.
This is what happens when you overheat a planet

This is the price we, as the Most Affected People and Areas pay for the billions of profits made by oil and gas corporations.
We need climate reparations now.

Record monsoon rains and floods in Pakistan have killed 1,000+ people, including hundreds of children.
Pakistan produces less than 1% of CO2 emissions but is highly vulnerable to climate crisis events.
Officials say a third of Pakistan is underwater: "It's all one big ocean."

The death toll in Pakistan continues to mount, passing 1,000 as of this morning. 33 million people have been displaced. More than 500,000 homes destroyed. Climate chaos isn't some future possibility, it is happening right now. theguardian.com/world/2022/a…

All eyes are on @POTUS following failed climate talks in the Senate. Here’s a comprehensive set of recommendations the Administration can take for #OceanClimateAction WITHOUT Congress: oceanconservancy.org/wp-cont… @BrendaMallory46 @ginamccarthy46 @AlondraNelson46 @SecRaimondo

🧵Bad news: Last night, we learned the coal baron Joe Manchin and Senate Republicans will not #ActOnClimate.
Good news: Nearly 100 ocean orgs & businesses have put forward a Blueprint for #OceanClimateAction that the @Potus can do RIGHT NOW. bit.ly/3IJZAJi

Now more than ever, @POTUS needs to be the climate president. @JoeBiden, use your executive authority today to declare a #ClimateEmergency and reject new fossil fuel projects. It’s time to choose #PeopleVsFossilFuels.

I'm so inspired by a new @Oceano_mag article by Northern Chumash Chairwoman @bluevioletsage. Her visit to @MontereyAq was an early influence; today, we’re proud to support her tribe and other Indigenous leadership to protect @CHNMSanctuary: issuu.com/oceanographicmagaz…

NEW @Oceano_mag article by Northern Chumash Chairwoman @bluevioletsage detailing the journey to designate the @CHNMSanctuary, and how this is an opportunity for her tribe to lead on protecting Chumash heritage waters. #Protect30x30 issuu.com/oceanographicmagaz…

Bristol Bay, home to the most abundant salmon fishery in the world, has spent almost two decades threatened by copper and gold mining.
The #AmericaTheBeautiful initiative offers @POTUS an opportunity to durably protect this essential habitat.

Let's be clear, wealthy women will always have access to whatever doctors, medicines and procedures that they want. Ending Roe is an attack on the autonomy of poor and working class women.
Humna Sharif retweeted
An extremist Supreme Court is poised to overturn #RoeVWade and impose its far-right, unpopular views on the entire country. It's time for the millions who support the Constitution and abortion rights to stand up and make their voices heard. We're not going back—not ever.

A new study warns that global warming is pushing Earth’s oceans toward a mass extinction event at a level not seen in about 250 million years.
