This past week has been hot, but without bold #ClimateAction, Philly temps are expected to increase 8°F by 2100. That's like the weather in Shreveport, Louisiana! Another reason we need to #ActNow to fight the #ClimateCrisis. More from @greenphillyblog

just because jim kenney is MIA doesn't mean Philly is without any leadership.
investing in green space + trash removal matters, grateful that someone in city hall is still working to invest in our neighborhoods.
Improving the condition of our neighborhoods — with cleaner streets, streetlights, and green spaces — is proven to drastically reduce crime and improve security. I'm proud to stand with @CouncilmemberJG in championing a $30 million investment in Philadelphia's city services.
