Trump's vengeful tone shows he genuinely doesn't support First Amendment rights. He's an instinctive tyrant waging war against America's Constitution & founding principles. As Benjamin Franklin warned, "Whoever would overthrow the liberty of a nation must begin by subduing the freeness of speech."

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Why is @gavinnewsom.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov breaking his word to help save Bay Area transit? It is just appalling and politically idiotic. www.sfchronicle.com/politics/art...

It's the time piece I want to focus on. The key thing about the benefits of a clean energy system is that, once we've transitioned, *we will enjoy those benefits for the rest of our time on earth*. Every subsequent generation of humans will enjoy the benefits. They will accumulate & accumulate.

It was a pleasure chatting with @weareagog.bsky.social's @chipgiller.bsky.social and James Pollard of @apnews.com about how philanthropy can support science, ethical and inclusive AI and the power of immersive reality.... apnews.com/article/wend...

i think it should be a bigger story that the president held a meeting with a foreign head of state where he ranted about the most gutter white supremacist propaganda you can find on the internet

Awful to hear of these deaths. It’s horrendous to me that one needs to worry not only about actual antisemitism but how governments could use this as a license for wrongdoing.

The same kind of folks who spent years complaining about masks that slowed the spread of disease are now wearing masks to facilitate the spread of fascism

Word on the street: Leo is a climate guy!

pope having a totally never trump twitter account is just way outside any of my expectations

We won’t bow to pressure to move away from our climate commitments. Today we're demanding the retirement systems’ managers strengthen their #NetZero plans consistent with their fiduciary duty—or we will find new managers who will. Watch the full press conference👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMQt...

This piece by my mentor and friend @billmckibben.bsky.social, powerful and true, is such an accurate summary of the state of things.

Make Sepsis Great Again

There is so much going on, so much wreckage, so much evil, I wouldn’t even have spotted this awful thing in motion if @katzish.bsky.social hadn’t called it out:

REally good book here, and these events will be great because @vanessapriyadaniel.bsky.social is savvy and insightful!

This reporting is very important, though the subject is very discouraging: grist.org/project/acco...

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.

Grist is excited to announce the release of the latest Imagine 2200 collection! Here are 12 stories from diverse voices, each exploring the future of climate solutions and human ingenuity. grist.org/imagine2200-...

This point of @leahstokes.bsky.social 'sis really interesting: "...I think in some ways, 2029 is a better opportunity to pass climate policy than 2025 was ever going to be. ..." Great interview by @elizkolbert.bsky.social.

“History Doesn't Repeat Itself, but It Often Rhymes” – Mark Twain.

U.S. climate politics have revolved around China since the mid-90s—the Senate didn’t ratify the Kyoto Protocol, for example, because the GOP and many Dems were freaked out (at least they pretended to be) that China wasn’t going to be held accountable for its emissions growth. 1/4

Every time @semaforben.bsky.social calls the early days of his career "the early days of digital media" I think of the ten years of my professional life that he is erasing, along with others who think online news started with Vice and Buzzfeed in the late aughts www.semafor.com/newsletter/0...

We love a big swing, don't you? More on Agog from @zdnet.bsky.social

Excited to announce Agog, which I’ve founded with Wendy Schmidt. Our goal is to help people use immersive media--like VR and AR--to imagine a better world. And we want to help make sure that social justice is at the fore as this media develops. Check out agog.org, & follow us @weareagog.bsky.social.

Hello, people! I'm launching a cool new media initiative at SXSW in 11 days. Lotsa creative folks involved. We're gonna change the world (or at least try)! Whom do I know (and whom should I know) who will be at SXSW in March? Pls spread the word; intros welcome. Thanks.
