GOOD NEWS: Montgomery County's all-electric building code lives! 🏘️ ⚡ 🔌 The gas industry and their allies won't stand in the way of local government action to protect the health, safety, and well-being of their residents. earthjustice.org/press/2026/c...

Imagine if we had only all-electric usps trucks instead...

They really did it

most of us have a fossil fuel factory in the basement and another one sitting in the driveway that’s how it is, and those are the main battles

Electrification of transportation is a national security and economic resilience strategy, which would work well for this exact scenario we are in right now.

Alysa Liu: "THAT'S WHAT I'M FUCKING TALKING ABOUT" 🗣️

The Trump administration on Thursday repealed the endangerment finding, a scientific determination that underpins the federal government’s legal authority to combat climate change. Here’s what to know about the endangerment finding and why it matters.

California has exceeded every clean energy, clear air & clean water target from our five-year plans. The Golden State is showing what's possible — and our economy is growing because of it.

An event you don't want to miss! We desperately need state solutions to improve air quality.

This proposal isn’t just bad policy — it’s a reckless disregard of basic science and the health of every American. When an administration sides with polluters over people, it doesn’t just abandon commonsense climate action; it abandons our country’s future. ➡️ bit.ly/4crOdX5

I don't say this often but: I'm so proud to be a climate and environment reporter. We cover an issue that is vitally important to humanity and the natural world. 14 of my climate colleagues at the Post were laid off today and I'm devastated. www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/washington...

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff. Democracy dies in oligarchy.

Horrible. Just horrible.

This is climate action. It’s still happening, even as climate seems to be fading from the national discourse

Like the rest of the world, the EU is accelerating the shift away from gasoline vehicles to EVs. The US is being left behind.

Today, the South Coast Air Quality Management District released its much anticipated report on how SoCal warehouses are complying with the region’s innovative warehouse pollution program. The results? They're looking very promising. earthjustice.org/experts/adri...

Incredibly emotional to hear my poem has been turned into a song of resistance and is being sung in Minneapolis right now. Please do not give up.

People will get sicker. More people will have heart attacks and lung disease and other health challenges because of pollution. People’s lives will get worse, and shorter. People you know. Maybe me. Maybe you.

"Often we as a society debate some of these smaller policy changes. If we’re going to have all of these battles over a small change, you might as well go big and try to win something that’s transformational."
