This is who @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social is. Brilliant. Fearless. I fucking hate typing this shit out: Free Eman. Amplify amplify amplify please.

Eman talked about why she was taking the risks involved with attending these protests here.

ICE en masse physically attacked a crowd of protesters under protection of @govpritzker.illinois.gov’s state troops. Disgusting.

we should bring back shame actually www.bostonreview.net/articles/how...

Thank god no one seems to be injured from this. Did you know there's a @cplusc.bsky.social about this? Never a better time to read it and send it to your city councilors. climateandcommunity.org/research/get...

We knew climate would push people out of Miami. We didn't guess that fascism would push them out first. www.wsj.com/real-estate/...

First read the teaser, THEN READ THE BOOK!

When I say the US has bet its post-pandemic economy on AI while China has bet its on green energy, this is what I mean: Here, AI related companies account for 75% of S&P 500 returns since ChatGPT's launch. In China, green tech accounts for one quarter of GDP growth.

At a Climate Week event where a fancy financier just boasted that their AI could advance sustainability by answering detailed CO2 footprint questions. Which, FWIW, can also be accomplished by skimming this book.

Mamdani’s the beginning of the end for Schumer and Jeffries.

Avi's launch video is 🔥. While Carney's elbows are sagging, Avi's building a real agenda to make life better for Canada's many.

Some of the most devastating impacts of the second red scare were the loss of jobs that came along with it. Gay people were not widely employed: the federal civil service at the time administered an exam, which helped reduce bias in hiring, which meant more Blacks, women, and gay men had good jobs.

Calling all housing-brained people! You have the shocking opportunity to work w Ruthy, my absolute green housing queen—so smart, so knowledgeable, so fun!!! We need to rebuild the future of housing. Lfg! Please share widely and consider applying! 🌱🌹🏢

My column in the new issue of @thenation.com, in which I argue that liberals who are finally acknowledging that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza must atone for nearly two years of complicity.

Thank you, Ta-Nehisi Coates. archive.is/7uhwf

Many American politicians are learning from Vienna, which is combatting housing scarcity+climate change-- all at the same time. This group from Portland is another example. To go on a podcast jaunt and read more about Vienna's green social housing, check out our feature from June on @npr.org 📻🎧🌍

In a world riven by inequality and devastated by climate + ecological crisis, what would it take for "green industrial policy" to empower the working class in Global North + South, and be truly green? New @cplusc.bsky.social report by me and Isabel Estevez (1/3) t.co/78sQQe4d1g

This is obviously wild in how plain it is, but it's also wild how much the effort to sell gas is fully consistent with Obama, Biden, etc. policy (though the climate denial there wasn't overt!)

There’s a huge opportunity here for green social housing. Even with these zoning changes, new construction faces headwinds, especially for lower-income residents. But the state is now opening space—literally—for the subsidized construction of beautiful, climate-friendly, mixed-income homes.

It's "great" to see my employer releasing names and information about *alleged* behavior to the Trump admin, without even telling the people who've been accused what it is that they're accused of. Utterly reprehensible. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The latest issue of the NACLA Report was co-edited by Breno Bringel and myself. NACLA is deeply committed to socio-environmental justice in the Americas, so we wanted this issue to provide insights into the state of ecological imperialism in the region, including its green capitalist facades.

“The main thing is that [Vienna] just kept the policy commitment: housing is a human right, we’re going to keep building it.” @aldasky.bsky.social @cplusc.bsky.social

Great story, with voices I respect like @aldasky.bsky.social and @jlappen1.bsky.social offering prescient commentary. (1/) heatmap.news/politics/ele...

Probably my favorite built environment idea of the last 12 months

Right now, climate world is playing defense. But in the long run, the energy transition likely rests on policymakers and advocates confronting this... heatmap.news/politics/ele...

You must have missed @cplusc.bsky.social's insurance work, because we absolutely grapple with risk reduction. I invite you to read our 2024 report, authored with 6 insurance, housing and climate risk scholars: climateandcommunity.org/research/sha...

The idea that insurance premiums are a good way to mitigate climate risk to housing is a common misconception that, unfortunately, can obscure real solutions to the risks of climate change and perpetuate existing inequities. Why is that? Well... 1/8

"The message was specific, straightforward, and had nothing to do with the warming planet." @emilypont.bsky.social goes deep on the climate movement's newfound focus on affordability, feat. @aldasky.bsky.social and @jlappen1.bsky.social.

I had such a great time talking to @alybatt.bsky.social about her brilliant new book, FREE GIFTS: CAPITALISM AND THE POLITICS OF NATURE. And she had fun too!

I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.

I'm going to be a bit more precise. The problem w the headline is that it reproduces Fox News memes that renewable energy is itself fraudulent—ie, not green, no better for enviro, etc. That's just not true. Worse: that's not even what the piece or the underlying book is about! 1/

TODAY!!! Come hear @alybatt.bsky.social talk about her brilliant new book!

Yes, we need critical analyses of climate and capitalism. No, we don’t need Fox News headlines in the Nation or exhausting, one-sided takes on green political economy.

Trump rounded out a week of going after wind farms by hitting Ørsted with a stop-work order for its Rhode Island offshore project.

I'm so excited to talk to @alybatt.bsky.social about her *brilliant* new book, Free Gifts: Capitalism and the Politics of Nature. Next Tuesday in SF, at Book Passage! Come through 📚💚 www.bookpassage.com/event/alyssa...

Maybe don’t kill NEPA? www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/u...

BREAKING: A new experiment in Philly shows cash rental assistance slashed homelessness rates by 57–67%.

What if bureaucrats were hot influencers?

This piece by @ear2thepavement.bsky.social is so, so good. It lays out exactly what we need- use the federal government to make people's lives better directly- not through a private entity. Love this quote from @aldasky.bsky.social ‘We’re from the government and we’re here to help—and it’s great!’

To hold off fascism, we need to do more than resist. We need to learn from history, and build a *charismatic* state, with civil servants working hand-in-hand with working class communities to make lives better. @ear2thepavement.bsky.social nails it! www.currentaffairs.org/news/make-bu...

Data centers drive up electricity costs and carbon emissions—making heat waves worse, while making AC even less affordable for poor and working class families. But at least Sam Altman is getting rich!

"The problems are among a series facing railways in the UK and other countries as climate change makes climactic events more extreme." > simple things like clay shrinking in dry weather can be hugely disruptive as our infrastructure was designed for a different climate

At a sociology conference, shivering in an over-AC'd hotel, while the city outside swelters in record heat. Eco-apartheid is broiling the planet and burning carbon to freeze indoor spaces for the privileged. Climate justice is abolishing carbon, and ensuring the right to cool comfort for everyone.

Wake up babe a new Pangaea is forming

I shouldn’t be, but I’m still a little shocked each time Israel dials up the genocide another notch. At least that means I’m not totally numb yet. We will never forgive, or forget.

Texas flooding exposes failed disaster policies & an inadequate home insurance system that must be transformed, argue @ruthygourevitch.bsky.social & I in a new piece published today by the Washington Times (yes, really!) www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/au...

To save the planet from climate change, AI has to first make climate change worse. Classic super-intelligence move! So sneaky, so counter-intuitive!

First Mamdani, now Wilson! Attacking the cost of living crisis, promising real solutions for working people. Green economic populism is surging.

That's right! As @aldasky.bsky.social & @triofrancos.bsky.social wrote in @nytimes.com in January, "Many Americans are plagued by endless bills and dangerous weather. Green economic populism heals some of that pain today while still building for the future." www.nytimes.com/2025/01/07/o... (🎁 link)

1/ In one more chapter of "Brazil is hosting COP30, but environmental destruction is still the norm at home", our Congress passed legislation that will destroy environmental licensing and allow harmful industries to "self-license". We've named it the Devastation Bill.
