Los Ángeles residents have the power to reimagine concrete spaces into urban green spaces. LA compost serves as a decentralized network for people wanting to community compost. #compost #climate #sustainability

I recently released a new episode of my independent web series, Teaching Climate Together, focused on composting, science, and how people can take part in climate action through their food scraps. Highly recommend watching the episode!

My heart is melting, I hosted a native plant ecology field trip this past weekend and so many people came!!

We are going to be entering our 3rd No Kings Protest and people are thinking that their activism begins and ends on that day when they’ve failed to connect themselves with grassroots organizations that are resisting every day.

You deserved to be loved by the land.

The Epstein files are horrific, and they reveal just how many victims have been living in fear for years. The abuse carried out and protected by powerful elites and government officials must be fully investigated, and those responsible must be held accountable.

ICE is an environmental issue. ICE is a public health issue. ICE is a disability issue. ICE is a LGBTQ+ issue. ICE is a children rights issue. ICE is a women’s rights isssue. ICE is violating all our rights. We need everyone to recognize that we are in this fight together.

ICE raids are a climate issue. I don’t want to hear you talk about carbon emissions when my people are being ripped apart from their communities. People are the environment.

TSC Fellow @isaiashernandez.bsky.social on #climate storytelling: "[Climate storytelling] transforms charts and numbers into living tales of place and kinship, reminding us that rising seas, burning forests, and shifting seasons are not abstractions; they are woven into our daily lives."

My latest blog for @safinacenter.bsky.social on Climate Storytelling! In a world where creativity, intelligence, and literacy are being devalued, storytelling is needed more than ever. Check out the full post below.

It’s easy to catch attention with stories about transitioning clownfish or same-sex albatross parenting. But as @isaiashernandez.bsky.social explains, queer ecology offers journalists an important perspective for covering environmental risks. #SEJournalFeature: www.sej.org/publications...
