Alongside our partners, we’re suing the EPA for illegally abandoning its duty to protect us from climate pollution. Its unscientific repeal of vital safeguards defies the law, science, and public interest. We’ll see them in court, and we will win.

And of course, the reason the former councilmember opposed protected bike lanes was due to concerns about loss of parking impacting local businesses. Today those businesses are flooded. Our climate is changing. We must get past our car-brained ways of thinking to slow climate change and to adapt.

He promised to hurt "them," not us. "Trump’s supporters appeared to be willing to tolerate his lies and obscenity, but only so long as their personal comfort was maintained...voters to be more approving when they have money in their pocket."

"If Democrats want to regain trust ahead of the 2026 elections, they need to show they are willing to take on Big Tech with the urgency that everyday Americans are demanding."

SUCH "good Christians."

Since this post is getting so much love, here’s my favorite custom cake we’ve ordered from PenDel’s, my BART birthday cake from a few years ago. Pamela, one of the owners, is such an incredible cake artist.

American climate science is losing federal support right when we need it most. Project Drawdown is stepping up: launching the Climate Science Serving America Fellowship for early/mid-career PhD scientists to do good science that does good. 🗓️ Apply by April 17 👉 https://bit.ly/4kx2J1Q

WATCH! New Jersey blew up its last coal fired power planet. It will build storage for renewable energy instead. These are the transitions we need to see in 2025: buff.ly/3wDvhSI We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables

If BART must slash service, my busy days like today wouldn’t be possible. Thanks to BART I spent the morning with family, went to work in Oakland, an event for Auditor Jenny Wong in Berkeley, an El Cerrito commission meeting, and got back for bedtime. We must pass the transit funding measure!

The National Prayer Breakfast was yesterday and our Piggy is showing what a “good Christian” he is. Not even surprising at this point. Our Piggy isn’t just the worst President in American history, he’s one of the worst Americans in American history.

Why does the world still allow trophy hunting? We've done so much harm already. RT if you think there should be a worldwide ban on this barbaric practice. Nature is amazing. Protect it. #ActOnClimate #climate #TrophyHunting #nature #rewilding #GreenNewDeal #biodiversity

The regime is trying to frame the Minneapolis protests as a foreign-style insurgency, false propaganda. Citizens are using lawful, collective, and protective means to defend their communities in the face of militarized policing, community disruption, and civilian death, just like a foreign invasion.

BART's newly released concepts for what they'll do if Connect Bay Area transit funding measure fails are terrifying. Phase 1: 63% train hours cut & 10 station closures Phase 2: Cumulative 70% train hours cut, 15 station closures Phase 3 (if required): END BART SERVICE We must pass the measure! 🧵

When the Trump administration illegally froze funding in the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program, Earthjustice and our partners fought back in court. Last week, we won.

"Susana" is hard at work in Woodlake CA harvesting lemons. "I earn $35 per 900lb crate. It is not easy work. I must move and go up and down a 12-foot ladder, while avoiding the thorns on the tree. The weather is cold & the ground is often muddy." #WeFeedYou

“[Melania is] a decorative emblem of a ruling class that has retreated into self-absorbed aesthetics even as the streets beneath it seethe.”

This is terrible… AND we’re so lucky to have AC Transit directors like @therealjeanwalsh.bsky.social and @sarahsyed.bsky.social who regularly ride buses, are directly aware of problems riders face, and seek to address them. All transit board members should ride transit!

From the leaders of the StopOAK campaign: "Thank you for your help in 2025 to resist polluting plans for the OAK expansion! Stay tuned for news of the legal challenge in court this spring. Wishes for peace, community health, and planet health in the new year." stopoakexpansion.org

America’s armed forces exist to defend the nation—not to be used as props in partisan theater.   The CBO confirms what @warren.senate.gov and I found: Trump is wasting taxpayer dollars, hurting readiness, morale, and military families, and weakening national security.

Take the World Cup away while you’re at it. We don’t deserve it.

Enough! Anyone waiting on the sidelines, anyone hesitant to let go of the faith they once had in Trump- is this not enough yet? What line could be crossed to make you say “No More!”?Catering to polluters, alienating longtime allies, harming children, killing our neighbors and nonstop lies. Enough!

Great title in the NYTimes this morning "Millions of Gallons of Raw Sewage Spill Into the Potomac River." From my vantage pt, I'd say millions of gallons of raw sewage is spewing FROM the Potomac River (area) onto the rest of the country and world every day. And no cleanup crew has shown up.

As ICE terrorizes our communities, farmworkers are still feeding this country — every single day. #WeFeedYou

Democrats are campaigning as if the 2026 election will be fair. That’s a mistake www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

I can’t stop thinking about what an incredible transition El Cerrito has made in my lifetime. It was very conservative during my childhood, refusing to acknowledge MLK Day. Now it’s governed by a majority POC and super majority LGBT Council. We’re a sanctuary city AND pro-housing. Amazing to see.

Around the world, costs of living have soared. We know that climate solutions save money in the long run, but are there any that offer immediate relief w/o upfront cost? 💸 Our team of experts provided a comprehensive list of solutions that cover food, transportation, and the home. #affordability

Thank you to my Representative John Garamendi for calling for the impeachment of Kristi Noem! AND ICE is far beyond accountability. We must disband ICE, and we need ALL Democratic congressmembers to fight for this.

Once upon a time, Coca-Cola set the standard for refillable glass bottles. But today, they’re the top corporate plastic polluter in the world according to Brand Audit reports. Send this to @CocaCola to urge them to Bring Back Refill. #BreakFreeFromPlastic #NoToSingleUse

In #California, at the Pismo State Beach Monarch Butterfly Grove, 230,000 butterflies were recorded in 1990. In 2026 there are just 471.

Repeat after me: We cannot afford to not address the climate crisis. We cannot afford to not address the climate crisis. We cannot afford to not address the climate crisis. We cannot afford to not address the climate crisis. No time to wait. #ActOnClimate

Good morning. We woke up today thinking of the Japanese art of kitsugi, repairing broken pottery with gold, not to hide the flaws, but to turn them into something beautiful. Our country has broken in many ways. Let’s be the gold that mends the cracks.

POW! All new houses built in Tokyo after April 2025 must include solar power panels. Let's speed that up. Who's next? RT if you think more houses should get a solar powered upgrade. We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #renewables

All across the country, we want to give a huge shout-out to everyone who showed up, organized, and stood together in the streets Minneapolis, St. Paul, Chicago, New York City, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Atlanta, Miami, Los Angeles,

Tonight we are overwhelmed by sadness. And thinking of these words passed down through centuries of grief. Goodnight 💚

Make good on this @democrats.senate.gov! Do not give Trump any $$ for more state-enacted murder and terror! User your power!! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

This "message to the world" is literally what Stephen Miller told Jake Tapper Monday afternoon: "law is optional and force is the true arbiter" This man has no place in our government. Where are his morals or belief in ethical politics?
