The worsening planetary crisis does not wait for politics or economics; impacts are spreading, costs are rising & human security is deteriorating. We need to start making progress everywhere possible, without further delay. #EarthMonth #EarthCivics #SDGs earthcivics.org/2026/04/22/n...

The Boundary Waters are a pristine wilderness on the border of Minnesota with Canada. The ability of a society to preserve, protect, and defend, such wild places is a measure of that society’s ability to do the same for human health. #SaveTheBoundaryWaters #EarthDay earthcivics.org/2026/04/20/b...

Seeing our home planet through the eyes of four intrepid voyagers, who traveled beyond the Moon, we see that civic engagement needs to be open, ongoing, and include all of us. This is the purpose of Earth Civics. earthcivics.org/2026/04/20/m...

This #EarthDay, pause to consider how our home planet, the one place we know to harbor life, provides for & sustains us. We must say No to reckless destruction & yes to cooperative stewardship. earthcivics.org/2026/04/22/n...

10 Years After the #ParisAgreement, the climate imperative is clear. Costs are already becoming prohibitive; future disruption, mass migration, conflict & chaos will be worse than any institution is prepared for. Our best future is centered on climate resilience. climatecivics.org/2025/12/08/1...

To ensure the integrity of all ecosystems in forests, the ocean, mountains, and the cryosphere, while protecting biodiversity, requires climate action ambition & implementation beyond what any nation is currently envisioning. climatecivics.org/2025/12/08/1...

Today, experts, advocates & diplomats are gathered in Addis Ababa for the stocktake on #FoodSystems four years after the #FoodSystemsSummit. Our policy brief maps out ways to navigate 7 dimensions of polycrisis, restore nature & secure a livable future. #FSS+4 climatevalue.exchange/2025/07/28/f...

The International Court of Justice has issued a landmark Advisory Opinion, finding that all nations are obligated under customary international law, including human rights law, to act to prevent harm from industrial climate disruption. #ClimateJustice #ICJ climatecivics.org/2025/07/23/i...

Our #SB62 policy brief urges all nations to support local climate solutions, welcome citizens into policy processes, incentivize healthy, regenerative #FoodSystems & work to make #ClimateAction part of the everyday economy. Everyday #ClimateRescue is the future. climatecivics.org/2025/06/06/s...

Today, UCS delivered a letter signed by over 3,300 scientific experts calling on Congress and Commerce Secretary Lutnick to stop the dismantling of & illegal attacks on #NOAA. www.ucs.org/about/news/o...

Throughout #EarthMonth, we worked to create conditions for expanded opportunity, climate security & sustainable prosperity, launching the Climate Action & Food Systems Alliance (CAFSA), supporting Rights of Nature & developing a new civic engagement model. climatecivics.org/2025/04/30/e...

Intergovernmental meetings often take place in the midst of crisis. In 2025, this is a constant. Cooperation among allies is the bedrock of security & progress. Climate-smart trade, finance & food systems can free all nations from chaos & secure a livable future. climatecivics.org/2025/04/25/w...

Since global food crisis continues to become more likely, CCI has moved on a number of fronts to give stakeholders and policy-makers more actionable insights, to reorient mainstream activities and build a more secure future. #ClimateCrisis livingfutures.net/p/stop-the-l...

With ever-worsening climate disruption threatening access to food throughout the world, CCI signed on to a letter calling for financial and political backing to develop “moonshot” technologies to avert catastrophic hunger in the next 25 years. #ClimateCrisis climatecivics.news/p/cci-joins-...

This is beyond sad. It is a crime against nature. #Alaska #ClimateCrisis wapo.st/41GoYcF

Own beachfront property? You might be under water, and not just financially. #ClimateCrisis #SeaLevelRise wapo.st/4kxVdU7

Not a good look for the COP process. Even worse if they knew this would have to be done when they selected Belem for the venue. Will there be a side event at #COP30 about reducing deforestation? #ClimateCrisis

WEDNESDAY, March 12: Join our first workshop in the Earth Diplomacy Leadership training leading up to COP30 in Brazil later this year. Despite political headwinds, there are opportunities with finance and trade to move climate progress forward. #ClimateCrisis climatecivics.org/2025/03/05/d...

This is the ultimate gaslighting. The impact of #ClimateChange will will cost us trillions in the coming decades. The current US government is in league with the fossil fuel industry, polluters who should pay for the damage they cause.

The demise of butterflies & other pollinators — bees, fireflies — will trigger a food crisis. Our inability to coexist with nature will lead to humanity's downfall. We must stop using fossil fuels that heat our planet and pesticides that kill our agricultural allies. #ClimateCrisis wapo.st/41qhPNv

With #COP30 in Belém on the horizon, CCI's Joe Robertson (@joro.bsky.social) looks at the benefits we can gain by putting climate value at the heart of decisions we make on economics and trade. #ClimateCrisis climatevalue.exchange/2025/03/05/b...

This current stabilizes the climate under which much of civilization has developed. If it shuts down, chaos ensues.

As a financial summit gathers in South Africa, CCI offers a policy brief on ways to get resources for climate and wealth equality to the places that need it. #ClimateCrisis cciblue.com/2025/02/26/l...

This is disgraceful. The Trump administration is intentionally sabotaging an important #IPCC report. Who benefits from this? Fossil fuel companies and petro-states hell bent on cooking our planet for the sake of short-term profits. #ClimateCrisis

The retreat from government-funded science, particularly #ClimateScience, presents risks that our nation cannot afford. CCI's Joe Robertson looks at those risks in his statement... #ClimateCrisis climatecivics.org/2025/02/21/a...

The cost of #ClimateChange, caused primarily from burning fossil fuels, is staggering. It will result is property values dropping by more than a trillion dollars. www.cbsnews.com/video/breaki...

Kind of a no-brainer, but it bears mentioning: Carbon capture is not the best way to deal with the #ClimateCrisis

This waste of food meant to feed the hungry is absolutely criminal and immoral.

Backsliding on climate goals will ensure catastrophe in the future. If we want a livable world, citizens must demand that their governments take action. #ClimateCrisis @chicoharlan.bsky.social wapo.st/4gvYDDn

As the world gathers to discuss financing for development (& with all the counterproductive actions of a lawless few) @climatecivics.bsky.social & @climatevalue.bsky.social have released a new #CapitalToCommunities report. We are all future-builders. climatevalue.exchange/2025/02/11/l...

"January marked the 18th month of the past 19 to record global-average surface temperatures above the 1.5C preindustrial level." It looks like we can expect more catastrophic climate-related disasters this year. Time to phase out fossil fuels. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Catching up on some astonishing news. The cost of inaction on the #ClimateCrisis will be levels of magnitude higher than the cost of taking action to reduce the risk. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

#ClimateChange is the greatest risk to food production in the world. Having US Ag ignore climate risk will increase the chances of people being unable to buy food and going hungry.

It may seem counterintuitive that global warming can bring frigid weather to unlikely places, but there's a reason that it does. Excellent explainer from WaPo's @byscottdance.com. #ClimateCrisis wapo.st/3PWc98I

Leaving the #ParisAgreement may not doom climate goals. Trump's domestic agenda to roll back US pollution regulations and incentives for renewables and EVs is the bigger threat. @jbwinters.bsky.social #ClimateCrisis grist.org/politics/us-...

Meanwhile, the world is facing a potential hunger catastrophe, if major #foodsystems transformation does not happen. 153 winners of the World Food Prize and Nobel Prizes are calling for a #foodsecurity moonshot, to fund research & innovation. navigatornews.substack.com/p/leaders-ca...

Right out of the gate, President Trump has made a flurry of (mostly bad) moves on energy & environmental issues. Some are worth paying attention to, and some aren't. Here's a great roundup by @ameliadavidson.bsky.social, & we've got some thoughts... 🧵 subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eene...

Guterres told the leaders of major banks, many of whom pulled out of climate agreements... that they were “on the wrong side of history, the wrong side of science and the wrong side of consumers who are looking for more sustainability, not less”. #ClimateCrisis www.theguardian.com/environment/...

#Trump's withdrawing from the #ParisAgreement is a giant step backwards when we desperately need to move forward. "Undermining the Paris Agreement will likely cost the United States more than any single decision in history." Read CCI's statement... #ClimateCrisis climatecivics.org/2025/01/21/w...

Check out CCI's year in review and why we need climate civics now more than ever. #ClimateCrisis open.substack.com/pub/climatei...

How many fires will it take 'til they know that too many houses have burned? We MUST phase out fossil fuels as quickly as possible. #ClimateCrisis #Wildfires wapo.st/4h1zqkW

A message from our director: "In this new year of worrying trends and spreading threats to human security and wellbeing, we invite our friends and allies to put aside despair and disinformation, in favor of responsible civics to shape our world." climatecivics.org/2025/01/08/c...

This is absolute cowardice. Major banks are fleeing the Net-Zero Banking Alliance over what we can only assume is fear of repercussions from the incoming US administration and Congress. Financial decisions must be tied to their impact on the climate. #ClimateCrisis www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

In 2022, Oxford University researchers found that fast transitioning to decarbonised energy by around 2050 will save the world at least $12 trillion — cheaper than slow or no transition. Achieving a net zero carbon energy system by around 2050 is possible and profitable. #sustainability #energy

As we pour more heat-trapping gases into the atmosphere, the number of extreme heat days will continue to rise, at some point making parts of the world unlivable. We must phase out fossil fuels quickly in order to have a chance of preserving a livable world. www.cbsnews.com/news/climate...

Don't be surprised if other governments follow New York's lead. Polluters are causing the damage to our climate systems. Therefore, polluters should pay. #ClimateCrisis

Will home insurance finally be the thing that wakes everyone up to the need for #ClimateAction? “The climate crisis... is coming through your mail slot, in the form of insurance cancellations, insurance nonrenewals and dramatic increases in insurance costs.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

It's been nine years since the #ParisAgreement on #ClimateChange. CCI held a debrief on #COP29 last week in which we shared insights. After COP29, it is clear the gap between what is needed and how we are mobilizing is getting wider. We have some suggestions... climatecivics.org/2024/12/12/n...
