🔥 UPDATES: 24,000+ people have been ordered to evacuate due to California’s Hughes Fire. Another 30,000 are in evacuation warning zones.
Climate change, primarily caused by the burning of fossil fuels, is increasing the frequency & severity of wildfires not only in California.

Hakiym was sentenced to 70mths in prison for defending himself against a hate crime while on a fire crew this summer. @GovTinaKotek can reverse this + show she takes addressing OR's longstanding racism seriously. #FreeHakiym

Did you know Oregon's largest natural gas company is named in a huge lawsuit for #Pollution and deceit? That the lawsuit says they spread misinformation & propaganda in order to greenwash? That this is the first time they're being held accountable for their lies? #Ghoulish

NEW: Environmental justice leaders speak out against Manchin’s latest #DirtyDeal + urge a NO vote.
The Energy Permitting Reform Act sounds bland, but it’s a deal w/ the devil to boost oil + gas while removing protections for frontline communities.

This bill is an outrageous giveaway to the fossil fuel industry and an assault on the right of impacted frontline communities to fight back. Call your Senators now and ask them to reject it!

🚨Today, 5 @JustStop_Oil activists were given the longest sentences that anyone in the UK has ever received for non-violent protest. This is an unacceptable encroachment on protest rights and an extremely disproportionate penalty for the protest planned.

‼️Treesitters have launched a SECOND occupation to stop @BLMOregon’s “Rogue Gold" timber sale, which targets old growth + mature forest for logging.
This comes weeks after a successful protest against the Poor Windy sale, where old growth was protected after a month tree sit.
