In my group of fierce Latinas someone said ā€œnothing about us, without usā€ and I seriously couldn’t have said it better. #lGRepost @dacijaye featuring books to read instead of #AmericaDirt.

We learn in med school that if someone comes to the emergency room calling themselves the King of Israel and the second coming of God, that patient is either high on drugs or is having a psychotic break and needs to be promptly evaluated with a tox screen and psychiatric consult.

You’ve heard it said when it comes to terrorism: if you see something, say something. So I’m saying something. This president has to stop emboldening white nationalism. He is actively endangering American lives.

Here’s an @exxonmobil chart from 1982 where they accurately predicted that in the year 2019 we’d be at around 415ppm of CO2 in the atmosphere. They then went on to lie to the public and block action for decades to protect their profits. bit.ly/2W1bBDZ #ExxonKnew

I wrote the climate scenarios chapter myself so I can confirm it considers ALL scenarios, from those where we go carbon negative before end of century to those where carbon emissions continue to rise. What WH says is demonstrably false.
Great piece by @yayitsrob Note WH claim assessment was based on the ā€œmost-extreme scenario" is untrue. It wasn't based on any one scenario. Much of it described impacts already happening! And the "worse-case" was just the business-as-usual, do nothing approach favored by WH.

There are five stages to climate denial: 1/ it’s not real (it’s a Chinese hoax) 2/ it’s not humans: let’s witch-hunt the scientists 3/ warmer is better! 4/ it’s too expensive to fix 5/ it’s too late; you scientist’s really should have warned us earlier. Here we see stage 5:
Of all the positive feedbacks in the climate system, this one may be the most dangerous: We're screwed, so why bother? From the great @eilperin & @chriscmooney wapo.st/2IkOURR?tid=ss_tw-bo…

Please RT if you know a woman who plays DnD, tabletop games, or video games in general. Also RT if you ARE that woman! I'm so sick of this mentality.
