Climate change is a global problem. But the solutions are local. When national leaders fail us, local leaders are stepping up. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

After a buoyantly rebellious weekend, it feels right to re-share this article about the power of protest. If you missed it the first time, here's another chance to check it out. open.substack.com/pub/suzannec...

What's with all this "climate religion" talk? I break it down in my latest post. What MAGA gets right, and wrong, about the climate movement. open.substack.com/pub/suzannec...

🇦🇫 Thousands of Afghan allies who stood beside U.S. forces are still waiting for the safety they were promised. 🤝 The Enduring Welcome Act (HR 4995) would protect and continue this vital resettlement work.

They shut it down, but it's back on line! The Fifth National Climate Assessment is up at nca5.climate.us That's what I'm talkin' 'bout! While the administration mothballed climate.gov, a volunteer staff is determined to make sure we still have access to the best science. Please support their work.

Sun day is just five days out! Time to get busy for renewable energy. Check out this great post from @billmckibben.bsky.social about upcoming events and opportunities. open.substack.com/pub/billmcki...

Trump shut down NOAA's site for climate communication, climate.gov. Now, former staffers are building back, with independent, nonpartisan climate.us. But they need funding to get their work up and running. Check it out. No donation is too small. donorbox.org/climate-us-p...

I am so in love with this song. "Water is a living being. We've forgotten we are water." www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZCUv...

Can't afford a new EV? No problem. Convert your internal combustion engine to a plugin hybrid for $6,000. Besides, it's simply not sustainable to trash all the existing cars on the road--this conversion model is genius. www.geekwire.com/2025/forget-...

This is such a loss. I've served on the selection committee for this program for the past three years, because it has funded so many incredible people doing such important research over the years. It should be expanding to meet the new challenges of climate change, but instead is totally defunded.

Shout out to folks in the Seattle area! Join me at a phenomenal panel at Seattle Climate Week centering Indigenous, Black, Muslim, and Lutheran leaders on how to cope with climate anxiety and take action for change. lu.ma/pgyfc762 @seattleccl.bsky.social

Live in a state with a Republican senator? Reach out NOW and urge them to defend 25D Residential Solar Tax Credit! 100,000 US jobs are at stake, many of them in red-states. Losing 25D means huge losses in US jobs and manufacturing, and greater reliance on foreign oil. #solarpower #climatechange

Aw, cmon! Guinness!? Time to get your act together. www.independent.ie/irish-news/g...

Indigenous people--and women and girls in particular--are missing and murdered at higher rates than any other demographic in this country. Interior Secretary @debhaalandnm.bsky.social led efforts to address this crisis. Now those efforts are being undermined. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Live in a Republican district? Reach out today to your members of congress to advocate for the IRA and protect clean energy tax credits.

89% of us support climate action. But we mistakenly think we're in the minority. It's time to rally for the future we want. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Thank you, @jamestalarico.bsky.social. We need voices that amplify the radical, inclusive compassion of the Gospels.

I'm not Catholic, but it's undeniable how important Pope Francis was for environmental justice. By wedding care for the poor with care for the Earth, he reminded us all that true justice demands being a voice for the voiceless, and protecting the powerless. news.mongabay.com/2025/04/pope...

Finally, we're taking action against these blasted penguins and their economic overreach. www.bbc.com/news/article...

"Breathing mindfully, you simply Enjoy your in-breath and out-breath. You bring the mind home to the body, and you realize That you are alive, still alive, and this is a wonder. To be alive is the greatest of all miracles." -Thich Nhat Hanh

Costa Rica has massively rewilded over recent decades. Has this led to the collapse of farming, rural society, or national wellbeing? Totally the opposite, and we in Ireland have SO much to learn from their example. My piece for the @irishexaminer.bsky.social www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/ou...

Psychological distress associated with climate change is real, and it can have damaging effects. But when we turn toward it (instead of running from it) it can also inspire action and greater community engagement. climatecommunication.yale.edu/publications...

Billy Frank Jr. spent his life working to defend Tribal treaty rights and support salmon recovery efforts. I'm grateful for the time I spent with him working to make WA state a better place—and know his legacy will live on today and always.

Spending time in nature reduces stress, improves mental health, boosts the immune system, and enhances overall well-being. That’s the scientific version. On nights like this though, I just say that it restores my soul ☀️

Giving voice to the voiceless <3

There are some self-proclaimed Christians pushing voucher scams. Vouchers take money from public schools and give it to wealthy parents who already send their kids to private school. I can’t think of anything more un-Christian than stealing from the poor to give to the rich.

The only minority destroying America is the billionaires. Here in Texas, a group of billionaires are trying to dismantle our public schools with a private school voucher scam. If they want to close our schools, Texans have 4 words for them: Come and Take It.

A beautiful piece and an invitation to listen to a powerful story. www.seattletimes.com/pacific-nw-m...

@foilarmsandhog.bsky.social welcome to Bluesky!

“If I am going to survive, I had better have a spiritual regimen that strengthens my immune system, fortifies my resolve, beckons the ancestors, and connects me to the creative spirit of all life–and if I don’t do that now, later will too late.” — Dr. Barbara A. Holmes

Democrats are holding the Senate floor through the night to bring the dangers of Russell Vought’s nomination to head OMB to the American public. Vought authored Project 2025. PLEASE share & convince as many as possible to reach out to your Senators - Democrat and Republican and say NO TO VOUGHT.
