Atlanta is embracing a cheap, effective way to beat urban heat: ‘cool roofs’. White or reflective roofs significantly reduce temperatures. Atlanta is the latest city to mandate their adoption. grist.org/cities/atlan... #Climate #ATL #GA #Georgia #Atlanta #Roofing #Housing

This year we’ve had every conference proposal accepted & every grant proposal denied. It’s clear progressives want to learn from trans Indigenous people but are too politically afraid to really roll w/us. We can’t help but wonder what happens when we’re no longer here or able to volunteer our time?

See yall TONIGHT @ 5-7pm for OPERATION DREAM We knew we wanted to do something to acknowledge the upcoming anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, but doom and gloom has never sat well with us.

Make no mistake – this is an attack on all disabled, trans, unhoused, and BIPOC people. Disappearing "those who cannot care for themselves" is also an attack on mutual aid and on any movement or system of care that we have created to weather these hard times together. www.aclu.org/press-releas...

“We stand firm in our joy and in our belonging even through the storm.” - Klie, @imaginewaterworks.org I’m excited to share a new article I contributed to! Thank you to the wonderful @audreygray.bsky.social for lifting up these stories! insideclimatenews.org/news/2007202...

I’m so proud of the resource guide, and honored to get to partner with @imaginewaterworks.org to keep it going. Please use it and share it around, and if you are able to put a few dollars towards printing costs, by all means! Digital is great, but not everyone has easy internet access.

This is a good time to also mention that we have an IWW HURRICANE HUB. The Hub has all of our guides, zines, checklists, and more to help keep you safe through the season. Resources are also translated into English, Spanish, and Vietnamese: www.imaginewaterworks.org/hurricane-hub/

Okay, you got us. We're finally joining Bluesky before peak storm season! We also unfortunately have impersonators of many kinds. So YES this is the real IWW account (.org in our name means it's verified by our website). On other platforms, please make sure you're following *Imagine* Water Works.

A newsletter for other pissed off Louisianians (and Southerners generally) who are tired of having our region painted with a broad brush. NSR is unashamedly left leaning, proudly southern, and coming soon :) Sign up! newsouthernrevolt.substack.com

It’s true! A lot of us worked hard to bring the resource guide to y’all so please use it, share it, and support it!
