Abolish ICE is now the moderate minimum position, Prosecute ICE is where Dems should be at next.

Wow! This sounds amazing. Check it out.

Harmful drinks are getting cheaper, not healthier. WHO data shows sugary drinks & alcoholic products are now more affordable in most countries—including for young people. This is a global warning sign. Raise taxes to protect health. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4szr4rv

The world is hot — and only getting hotter. Here's what places around the globe are doing to keep cool, from repainting surfaces and installing outdoor showers to planting trees and going underground. nyti.ms/46CXyqn

😢 How are flights so much cheaper than trains? Indeed, why are we forced to pick between cheap & polluting and expensive & sustainable? Well @greenpeace.eu has the answer: subsidies and MASSIVE tax breaks.

Nigeria is reimagining the future of health financing 🇳🇬 At a national dialogue in Abuja, leaders committed to strengthening UHC through evidence-informed reform. @robertmarten.bsky.social represented the Alliance at the meeting, sharing global experiences. 🔗 ahpsr.who.int/newsroom/new...

There’s no upside to air pollution.

Clean air should not be a luxury. It’s a right. Where you live shouldn't determine your health. But it does. On #WorldCleanAirDay, @who.int calls on leaders to take action & tackle this unfairness. Reducing air pollution helps prevent heart disease, asthma & lung cancer — saving millions of lives

I really wish Global North folk had the reflexivity and humility to stop lecturing Global South folk on corruption, lack of governance and accountability

The responses to our #HS2050 survey far have been thought-provoking and diverse, so far. To make sure no one misses out, we’re extending the deadline for response to 2 September. Share your insights today: www.ahpsr.org/health-syste...

The Alliance proudly supports @who.int new #3by35 Initiative – raising taxes on tobacco, alcohol & sugary drinks to save lives and fund stronger health systems. Research we have supported shows health taxes work. Time to turn evidence into action. 🔗 www.who.int/initiatives/...

Tax harmful products, not people. Alcohol consumption can impact your mental health & lead to higher risks of heart disease & cancers. WHO calls on countries to raise taxes on tobacco, alcohol & sugary drinks to save lives & invest in health. 🔗 bit.ly/40A3T3N #Tax4Health

Many countries are facing a severe health financing crunch. Health budgets have been under pressure and dramatic cuts in official development assistance have turned the screw even tighter. Now is the time to accelerate the transition to sustainable health financing: bit.ly/g7Canada #G7

It doesn't get reiterated enough that "human on a bicycle" is not only the most efficient way that a person can move, it's the most efficient form of motion ***ever observed in land animals***.

🛑 Banning #fossilfuels ads is an essential #publichealth intervention. "Like with tobacco, it's about removing the industry's platform to mislead the public" write @jenimiller.bsky.social & Jemilah Mahmood @sustaincosm.bsky.social www.context.news/just-transit...

$2.1 billion is the equivalent of 🌍 military expenditure every 8h $2.1 billion is the price of 1 stealth bomber $2.1 billion is 1/4 of what the tobacco industry spends on advertising & promotion every year. It seems somebody switched the price tags on what is truly valuable in our world. #WHA78
