Day 19 and I’m walking like an old grandma –which I guess I am. Slowly dragged all my flags out then pounded a few in the ground, and after finding my chair and positioning it out of the wind, I felt fine.

…citizens living within 1 mile of a facility comprised 12% of the requests, they comprised 83% of the requests the agency granted; almost all of the remaining 17% of granted requests came from people who lived only slightly farther than 1 mile away.

Oh yeah, because it's totally normal for the Supreme Court to weigh in on behalf of a methane gas pipeline being built by some of @Sen_JoeManchin's largest political donors. This is such bullshit. subscriber.politicopro.com/a…

.@POTUS, listen to young people. Declare a climate emergency.
I just mustered up every ounce of courage to interrupt White House Press Secretary @K_JeanPierre and urge the Biden Administration to stop approving new coal, oil, and gas projects.
The climate crisis is here now. @POTUS, listen to Gen-Z, scientists, and frontline communities

This is Mauricio Blanco, a fisherman of 36 years. He learned the business after hitchhiking from El Salvador at age 16 and meeting a TX fishing family who adopted him.
“I don’t see any benefits from this,” Blanco said of the project. “I get my benefits from catching shrimp.” 3/7
The Army Corps needs to hear YOUR concerns by July 3rd about plans to dredge Matagorda and Lavaca Bay to complete a massive export terminal for oil tankers. Dredging would devastate the fishing community who depend on healthy bays for their livelihoods🎣. SaveMatagordaBay.com

We have been in court for years in order to restore full ESA protections because we need a strong ESA to address the biodiversity crisis. earthjustice.org/press/2023/…
