The “bigger better bill” even conceptually exists to promulgate the tyranny of the financial minority

A reminder that 1% of the people control nearly half of all wealth, resources, energy, food, and land on this, our only, planet. Not sure they need more, which is what Trumps “big beautiful bill” aims to give them.

Sad to hear about the deaths this morning in West Virginia where 4 inches of rain fell in less than half an hour. Climate Change is a driving force in the increasing occurrence of microbursts.

Happy Earth day. Weirdly, Climate Action Now crossed a threshold: People have sent over 3 million messages to elected and business leaders about the climate crisis using the free app as of today! Join them.

The DOJ decision to abandon those in Lowndes County should horrify everyone. Americans should not have to live in lakes or raw sewage. This is a callous attack on human dignity of our nations rural poor by billionaires who don’t seem to possess human empathy.

Listen up to Justin Pearson and other Memphis heroes! They're not wanting any more asthma and cancer from gas turbines to power XAI. Disproportionate suffering is already too familiar. @ssteingraber1.bsky.social @willbunch.bsky.social @timguinee.bsky.social @billmckibben.bsky.social

“You would never willingly stand over the tailpipe of a car breathing pollution, yet we stand over a gas stove breathing the same pollutants.” Pair that w/emissions & health risks from benzene & NO2 & the case for switching to electric gets stronger. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/07/c...

Trump wasting taxpayer dollars and destroying the public commons… again: t.co/5ylwO7wmOY

Even in little Kingston, NY, thousands gathered in the pouring rain today to show up for democracy. #Handsoff

The National Weather Service says a "multi-day catastrophic and potentially historic" storm is expected to impact multiple states beginning on Wednesday.

So Elon spends millions in campaign contributions for Trump, Trump awards Musk with Billions in contracts. Musk spends millions more to elect pro-Trump legislators… guess that’s what they mean by a circular economy.

A biblical reminder for Sunday, “Woe unto those who legislate evil and rob the poor of their rights.” - Isaiah 10

Google, Microsoft, and Meta's increasing use of data centers has resulted in increased air pollution from extensive fossil fuel energy consumption and associated public health costs related to treating cancers, asthma, and other similar issues, valued at over $5.4 billion in the past five years.

It's not just one instance of a billion being only a million: "DOGE's only public ledger is riddled with mistakes," a team of New York Times reporters found. The figures are "full of accounting errors, outdated data and other miscalculations." www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

Join us in urging the Senate Chair of the Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee to stand against attacks on NOAA! www.votervoice.net/CLIMATE/Peti... #ClimateAction

It's imperative that our federal representatives and the chairs of key subcommittees overseeing NOAA’s budget hear from us.

@kwani-opharrow.bsky.social Thank you for co-sponsoring the Healthy Homes Right to Know Act (A73/S1280) This bill has great momentum and is a celebration of informed consumer choice! @solagesny.bsky.social @lizkrueger.bsky.social

America is waking up to the dangers of gas stove combustion by products: www.startribune.com/how-bad-are-...

Trumps executive order to revive the “constitution pipeline” is an assault on New Yorks sovereignty and states rights.

Thank you Assembly Member Noah Burroughs for cosponsoring the Healthy Homes Right to Know Act (S1280/A73) @lizkrueger.bsky.social @solagesny.bsky.social Te growth of legislative supporters is truly inspiring!

Thank you Assembly Member George Alvarez for co-sponsoring the Healthy Homes Right to Know Act (A73/S1280) @solagesny.bsky.social @lizkrueger.bsky.social

Thank you Senator April Baskin for joining the growing ranks cosponsoring the Healthy Homes Right to Know Act (S1280/A73). Thank you for your leadership! @solagesny.bsky.social @lizkrueger.bsky.social

Cant wait to read Catherine Flowers new book!

The president… not Musk… the other one, actually can’t pull out of the Paris Climate Agreement. No matter what how bloviates. What he can do is initiate the withdrawal process. We’re still in for another year, no matter what the lying, attention-pig says.

Grateful that the elderly Commander-in-Chief, apparently recognizing and accepting the frailty of his years, moved his inauguration indoors. The last president who did this was another republican suffering from dementia.

A reminder that 78% of Inflation Reduction Act funds flow into GOP districts. Dismantling the IRA will mostly damage republicans.

In our latest #MyClimateJob, we interviewed @TimGuinee, who works with @ClimateReality's New York State Chapters Coalition focusing on our changing climate and its impacts - including worsening #wildfires.

God bless Jimmy Carter

Thank you New York! www.governor.ny.gov/news/governo...

Huge win. Ecuadorians have voted in a historic referendum to halt the development of all new oilwells in the Yasuní national park in the Amazon, one of the most biodiverse regions on the planet: https://buff.ly/3QNZzdo Protect people and the planet. #ActOnClimate

President-elect Trump’s pick to lead the IRS solicited clients to claim a tax credit that the IRS said had become a magnet for fraud.

A powerful storm swept through parts of Northern California early Saturday, knocking down trees, causing widespread power outages and prompting weather officials to issue what they said was the first-ever tornado warning for San Francisco.

With such narrow margins in Congress, defending existing climate policy is possible. But it does need engagement to make that happen.

Great night tonight with former Vice President Al Gore, Peter Hedges, Michael Gaston, Caroline Baron and Piper Perabo. The struggle to solve the climate problem is only beginning. Lets go!

Spoiler Alert: The Answer is "E"

Also, it's worthwhile re-reading this from @helenczerski.bsky.social: "Instead of seeing the ocean as a “solution” for climate change, we need to see it as a test of a new attitude to our planet, one that doesn’t treat it as a combination of universal rubbish bin and exploitable resource." 16/16

"The analysis suggests dengue cases will continue to skyrocket as Earth's climate continues to warm. By the middle of the century, the number of cases could rise by 60% as more parts of the world enter the mosquito-friendly temperature zone."

Key point is that China has been investing in EVs for over a decade to reduce its dependence on imported oil. No country wants to be dependent on imports for key energy or security needs. And that's a big reason why it is unlikely that projections of high LNG demand growth in Asia will be realized.

@kathyhochul.bsky.social On this Thanksgiving Day, please fill me with gratitude by signing the Climate Change Superfund Act (S2129A/A3351) ( @lizkrueger.bsky.social/Dinowitz). It’s time for polluters to pay their fair share.

The FBI has been investigating whether a Washington consultant working for Exxon Mobil was involved in a sprawling hack-and-leak operation that targeted hundreds of high-profile environmentalists, sources told Reuters reut.rs/41qeO1t
