Change is hard and change is slow but there can be no change at all until people are confronted with a new vision. Change does not come in life by hoping for it. It comes when we do it. ~Joan Chittister

Joe Biden is a monster. Kamala Harris is a monster. Donald Trump is a monster. University administrations are monsters. We are all monsters.

BP isn't performing like shit because it went too green. It's performing like shit due to a variety of factors, in no particular order: - Deepwater Horizon - Massive exp capex w little break even return options - Plummetting replacement reserves ratio Tl;dr: It's just not that good at this

A really cool new study on the impact of climate activism has just dropped! Some highlights: 1) "There is strong evidence that climate activism shifts public opinion and media coverage in a pro-climate direction, but this varies by context and the tactics employed."

NEW: Senator Marshall (R-KS) RUNS AWAY, fleeing his own town hall after being asked about DOGE firing Veterans. MAKE HIM GO VIRAL.

THIS is worship! Creator delights!

This makes me extremely happy for some reason.

Get people safe. Get the fires out. Then, build back different. No more building for the climate of the 20th century. Build back like we know climate disasters are coming. Build back like we know climate disasters are here.

Are there newsroom meetings happening around the country to lay out clear guidelines for how to cover it when Donald Trump lies as president, because that's going to happen EVERY DAY.

Breaking. Santa skips Mar-a-Lago entirely. Also, he's no longer giving out coal because of what those on the bad list have done with it.

“A moment which, for many, feels so overwhelming, is a great moment to remember that some of the most meaningful acts of resistance are actions that can, in practice, look more like workplace procrastination than like outright battle.” thecycle.substack.com/p/how-to-be-...

Writing bulletins while Angela Aguilar, Carla Morrison, and Linda Ronstadt sing to me in Spanish? *chef's kiss*

Did the official just look askance at the illegally downfield penalty?

Have you seen this film by the EPA from 1967? It's interesting in the way it frames a climate issue as specifically something that can only be dealt with through political mobilization (rather than informing the public of the science). Worth a watch! youtu.be/udTz1FzuI50?...

You never know where the next inspiration for the energy transition will come from. LFGOOOOO #DailyPaper

Notice France didn’t “reject identity” Didn’t bargain Didn’t deride concerns about imperialism Didn’t treat concerns about inequality as grudges didn’t say soft voice bullshit Protect immigrants Feed babies TAX THE RICH

Just stumbled on this Anti-Slavery Constitutional Amendment Picture, ca. 1865. Thought today was a great day to share an image of white men abolishing slavery arranged in a shape Georgia O'Keefe would recognize. Happy 4th! Burn the white supremacist heteropatriarchy! npg.si.edu/object/npg_N...

Just a reminder that today is a good day to pick a family or org in Gaza to help promote- Operation Olive Branch has a whole spreadsheet full of vetted fundraisers to choose from- some people want to evacuate, some people want to rebuild, some are providing aid on the ground linktr.ee/opolivebranch

Look. I care about climate change a lot. I'm close to a single-issue voter on the subject! But we have GOT to stop worrying about what are, in the scheme of things, rounding errors. I hate, hate, hate this kind of personal-responsibility climate stuff, it's deeply counterproductive.

“Part of the problem is that items critical for hospitals are banned by Israel which says they can be used by Hamas for military purposes. The list of items it considers dual-use include some water disinfection materials.”

Full Story: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

No proof was ever given to justify the absurd lie that Al Shifa Hospital was Hamas’ “command and control center”—a “story” that ran for months in Western rags—but now that THREE mass graves have been uncovered on its grounds, the media have suddenly lost interest in the hospital!

The wonderful Rabbi Avigail Halpern writes: “The image of people frantically fleeing, attempting to bring as much food as they can carry while under the shadow of an empire's military assault is an essential part of the Pesach narrative.” So yeah. First post. Link to her full piece there.

A fossil fuel phase-out "requires international cooperation to restrict the supply of fossil fuels, including coal, oil and gas. This won’t be easy, but it is possible… The road towards phasing out fossil fuels will likely be long and bumpy, but the transition must start soon”

“This is not only an attack against WCK, this is an attack on humanitarian organizations showing up in the most dire of situations where food is being used as a weapon of war,” World Central Kitchen CEO Erin Gore said in a statement. “This is unforgivable.”

The agrochemical and petrochemical industries dump chemicals in the water all the time, and in this case killing ~800k fish. Meanwhile, scientists have a hard time getting permits to put a little alkalinity in the water to research CO₂ removal (CDR).

Much respect to the Jewish community for putting on full display the meaning of Purim pushing on the behavior of the State of Israel

@theradr.bsky.social Hi Rabbi Ruttenberg, As promised from the Book of Faces. I saved the document to my Google Drive. drive.google.com/file/d/1CH9r.... I remember the essay for the anthology being tighter. But love “play” (not unlike Sabbath) as an antidote to empire.

It is really frustrating to hear people call "doomers" those who see, in the scientific evidence a trajectory that does not predict human survival. Do the "doomers" then have license to call "romantics" those who still tout hope? Don't we have to do this together recognizing science can know both?

www.sierraclub.org/sierra/2024-... Great article from the Sierra Club which shows the outright lies, disinformation, and campaign to stop wind and solar. The faith community needs to get more hearty with a response.
