"Current policies are taking the world to a 2.8 degree temperature rise...that spells catastrophe, yet the collective response remains pitiful." – @antonioguterres There is no time to wait. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables

Snow in Saudi Arabia Heatwave in Iceland Mudslide in California Floating cars in Spain The frequency of extreme weather events is increasing as we destroy ecosystems and continue to burn oil, gas and coal. Delay is not an option, change must come, there are many challenges but #TogetherWeAreStrong

Yesterday, I was all set to buy a calendar on-line from a Canadian co. and then ran into my first "blockade." They wouldn't ship to the US! Welcome to the #newworldorder. Thanks POTUS.

President Trump's address was a sad spectacle, gaslighting the public to conceal his failed policies. In reality, this President is failing Americans in ways we haven't seen in decades. A failing job market, worsening affordability, and declining approval (1/2)

Honored to have been elected El Cerrito Mayor Pro Tem tonight, and congrats to Gabe Quinto, who was elected Mayor! I look forward to continuing to work to: 🏘️Build more housing 🚶🏾Make our streets safer 💲Strengthen our finances and plan for capital investments 📚Bring a new library to El Cerrito

Dear @repgaramendi.bsky.social I urge you to oppose HR3492 and HR498. Trans people deserve access to safe, affirming health care, and decisions about our bodies should be made by patients and medical professionals, not politicians. Thank you

America created the conditions that produced Trump, and America can reject, disempower, and delegitimize him the same way: through civic action, democratic pressure, and a refusal to cooperate with authoritarianism.🔥🇺🇸

EXACTLY! Only the rare “adventure” tourist will come to the United States, like those who currently visit North Korea

Plastic fishing waste on beaches in Portugal. Lots came from the plastic lobster pots, also pictured. Time to take plastic out of the fishing industry? @plasticwars.bsky.social @visitportugal.com @greenpeaceuk.bsky.social

Housing is good and we should build more of it in the places people want to live.

Libraries are still an excellent way to browse and find new books and authors you wouldn’t have found online. And if you don’t like them, no problem - just return them. It helps when you have librarians who feature excellent books, as they do at the El Cerrito library. Here’s a recent display:

America cannot endure four more years of governance by pretext. A nation that rewrites its laws every time its leader needs a scapegoat is not a confident country; it is a frightened one. And frightened nations do not stay free for long. open.substack.com/pub/theratio...

PASS IT ON! REPOST THIS.

I give thanks to the farmers, farm workers, and grocers who make my meals possible all year long, not just this #Thanksgiving.

As we get ready to shop for Thanksgiving remember the farm workers who harvest the food. We wouldn't enjoy a #Thanksgiving dinner without their hard work. #WeFeedYou

Today’s announcement by the Trump Administration to open up offshore oil leases moves us decades into the past. Doing so will ravage our most precious resources and the health of our communities. California is cutting emissions while growing (1/2) www.ksbw.com/article/cali...

Just another day in Trump’s America

Starting this weekend at least three Richmond nonprofits will give away Thanksgiving turkeys and food and will host holiday meals.

Birds of a feather. Whilst the trump cult stands by their "America first" Fuehrer.

How many more deaths of people walking and biking will we tolerate before we make our streets safer? This is a crisis throughout the East Bay - a woman was killed in a hit-and-run while crossing an Antioch street yesterday. We need to rapidly transform our streets to slow cars and protect people.

Port of Oakland, City of Oakland & #StopOAKExpansion are in the news again, this time (as before) re the Port's strong arm statics. tinyurl.com/45wa5x8u #ActOnClimate #ClimateEmergency #noairportexpansion

Yikes 😬 an official U.S. government account just referred to Americans as “imbecilic morons.” That’s… a choice.

Why go flight-free? Aviation emissions hit the Global South hardest. Francisca’s flight-free pledge is about travelling consciously, exploring locally, and choosing low-carbon options. flightfree.co.uk/post/flight-... #ClimateCrisis #SustainableTravel

The Trump Administration is once again putting profits over people. He's ignoring communities that worked for decades to protect it. Chaco is not for sale, it's a living landscape, sacred to many and irreplacabe. www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_n...

Can you imagine how different the country would feel about Dems right now if, instead of caving, they had all donated their salaries during the shutdown to food banks in their districts? They would have survived (they still have health coverage), people would have food & they would have been heroes.

Trump is so desperate to gut SNAP, he’s using the Supreme Court to do his bidding, and they’re going along with it. Disgusting. Politics shouldn’t determine your next meal. apnews.com/article/snap...
