My heart is heavy following the tragic loss in the #TexasFloods. I wrote about preparation, prevention and making sure no one is left behind. We don’t always plan to leave but we must plan to return. substack.com/@heathermcte...

Malaysia banning plastic waste imports ahead of the #GlobalPlasticsTreaty is a good reminder that we can’t recycle our way out of the plastics crisis. We need to cut production at the source.

I love the water but I’m still a little scared of it. Sharks, seaweed, you name it. But here’s what I’ve learned: the greatest ocean danger doesn’t even start in the ocean. It can start right in our own backyards. Check out my new post! open.substack.com/pub/heatherm...

Communities in #CancerAlley are trying to preserve the history of their ancestors who were enslaved at the Orange Grove Plantation. But first they need to take down the #pollutingindustry that now wants to build on the land. Go to earthjustice.org/orangegrove to take action now! @earthjustice.org

Louisiana has some of the highest rates of #lowbirthweight, #pretermbirth, and #infantmortality in the nation. Black mothers and their children fare the worst. So what's going on? Go to www.beyondpetrochemicals.org/mothers to learn more. @heathermcteertoney.bsky.social #petrochemicalindustry

Major victory for environmental justice & plastic pollution prevention! The cumulative impacts are too high. Ascension Parish ranks #1 in toxic industrial air emissions in US, chemical accidents kill & injure workers and threaten schools & communities. No more! @heathermcteertoney.bsky.social

Huge Win: Mitsubishi wanted to build what would have been the world's largest petrochemical plant of it's kind in Geismar in the heart of Louisiana's Cancer Alley. The people said no. It "is a testament to the power of community advocacy and grassroots organizing,” @heathermcteertoney.bsky.social

So in a moment of serendipity, an article I’ve been working on for months for @insideclimatenews.org about the role of faith communities in grappling with climate change came out yesterday, both the first night of Hanukkah and Christmas Day! 1/🧵 insideclimatenews.org/news/2512202...
