Calling all Scientists! Research Administrators! Deans! Fans of Science! No one is coming to save us. Here is your assignment. I have written a step by step, easy to understand "how-to" document to help you comment on the proposed OMB rule. elizabethginexi.substack.com/p/what-we-ne...

Data centers are energy-and-water intensive facilities that are already impacting our utility bills, our water, and our air. The POWER Act is the commonsense solution to hold them accountable & ensure they pay their fair share. Urge lawmakers to support the bill: act.ilenviro.org/a/poweract

Rallying for the POWER Act! Illinois must hold data centers accountable for their outsized impact on families' utility bills, air pollution, our finite water resources, and our communities #ClimateActionNow #YouCantDrinkData

Great attendance for #POWERActLobbyDay Swing by if you're concerned about unregulated data centers!

Over 600 Illinoisans are headed to Springfield today to support the POWER Act! Illinois has the chance to pass nation-leading legislation that protects residents from data center harms. Let's make it happen! #POWERActLobbyDay

I appreciated one of the points from @holdenthorp.bsky.social's Substack after his conversation with @timothysnyder.bsky.social. A thread about supporting the good troublemakers aka @standupforscience.net holdenthorp.substack.com/p/talking-wi...

solastalgia | noun | sadness or melancholy due to environmental loss

As firms produce ever more plastic, waves of chemical-laden plastic waste sent from richer countries engulf poorer countries - linked to illegal waste dumping + burning, + labour abuses. Could a new EU law be about to make the situation even worse? Our new article: share.google/ffp0cdhncdNJ...

Please consider adding your name to this important petition. Ireland only has <2% of its natural, wild-ish lands left, which makes efforts like this all the more important for protecting ecologic diversity.

Inspired by Katharine Hayhoe’s reminder that talking about climate change matters, I built 4billionyearson.org - making climate data visual and explorable. Canada is warming about twice as fast as the global average 🇨🇦 www.4billionyearson.org/climate/canada @katharinehayhoe.com

If you don't know, we're lobbying for some important, common-sense protections for all Illinoisians! #IEC #PRN #2026EnvironmentalLobbyDay

We're out here! Looking forward to a productive meetings with state representatives about these important bills! #WeThePeople demand reasonable, forward-focused environmental safeguards!

Ketanji Brown Jackson was the only dissenter in the conversion therapy case 😞 It's so upsetting, and I just want to remind folks that Trans Lifeline is a resource you should take advantage of right now if you need it. Your life is precious. +1-877-565-8860 translifeline.org

PLEASE LISTEN! If you go to the No Kings protest, please do not come home empty handed. Use it to organize. For example, Sway is a free app that helps you organize your local community into a solid voting block. We must organize, activate, and mobilize together.

Once again, Climate Town, for the win!

A classic anti-masker tactic is to claim that if you don't wear a mask 100% of the time, it isn't worth it. Untrue. Every single time you wear a mask, you reduce the chances for viruses to spread. Wearing a mask always improves public health, even if you only do it occasionally.

Superbugs resistant to antibiotics are rising fast. I tested water at Lough Neagh (40% of Northern Ireland’s drinking water) & found high levels of antibiotic-resistant genes from human & livestock poo. If we treat waterways like sewers, this is what we get. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

After months of relentless rapid response in Minneapolis, members of Defend the 612 had a moment to breathe and reflect on the lessons they’ve learned, the grief they carry, and the citywide fellowship they hope will endure. The crisis is not over, and I’m grateful they made time to speak with me.

There people on the left and right who will tell you this is only an issue for elites. Those people are insane. The obscenely unequal power of the rich is what caused this emergency. I’ll never cede “preventing mass death” as a cause of the mass left.

We're trialling something new this year at the BSBI - an activity designed to support absolute beginner botanists with identifying *and* recording their first ever 100 plants in 2026 🌿 If you know anyone that might like to take part then please spread the word: bsbi.org/take-part/ac...

if you care about the environment and feel frustrated by the lack of progress, it’s not you, it’s corporate capture

Most plastics, chemicals, artificial fertilisers, pesticides & synthetic fabrics are made from fossil fuels & they emit pollution throughout their life cycle, from extraction to processing to use & disposal. Fossil fuels give birth to so many major pollution sources.

Forever chemicals are so long-lasting + difficult to remove that very high levels can mean some water just is no longer usable as a drinking water source. With so much pressure on water resources, we cannot afford to let PFAS pollution build. share.google/zUhnlzVq2XgA... 2/2

You probably heard the US admin is threatening to break up the National Center for Atmospheric Research: but did you know they already froze funding for the 9 regional Climate Science Adaptation Centers? From tracking invasives to helping tribes with drought, here's why the CASCs matter ⬇️
