Spent time in our basement with a tornado warning last night, w an ice arena wall collapsing not far from our house. A month ago, 4 people were killed 70 miles away in the earliest tornado of its size here since 1950. More tornadoes, and earlier. #climatechange www.cbsnews.com/detroit/news...

Do you know about climate hushing? It’s the silence about #climate change that’s fallen over media, business, & politics since Trump took office. But as this latest poll shows, 66% of Americans are worried about cc & 44% think news is underestimating its seriousness. news.gallup.com/poll/708050/...

“They were able to turn around their country because they did not give up.” And we can’t either. Organize, protest, vote. Great message as always from @chrismurphyct.bsky.social.

Detroit, equity, nature connection, and #climatechange.

I live in Ann Arbor, 45 mins from Detroit, birthplace of the modern automobile industry and 6th-worst US city for year-round particulate #pollution. But it takes urban revitalization seriously. Greenway+trees+connection=good for health and mental health. 🧵 1/4 www.midwestliving.com/detroit-new-...

Great summary of the cognitive dissonance of seeing the U.S. celebrate the Artemis mission while the current administration cuts science, by @chelseaeharvey.bsky.social in @eenews.bsky.social www.eenews.net/articles/art...

Neighbors. The kids down the street. The grocery store cashier. The server at your favorite restaurant. Doctors, nurses, techs. Teachers. Farmers. Repairpeople. The UPS driver who pets your dog. The stranger who says hello when you pass each other. Parents. Grandkids. All of us. #climateaction

Dear Friends, Please send this to your networks. Project Drawdown is offering full-time, paid (with benefits) fellowships to scientists and engineers working on climate solutions in the public interest. Deadline is April 17. drawdown.org/careers/clim...

Incredible things happen with science! Congratulations and thank you #Artemis —and Christina Koch, fellow grad (different year) of the North Carolina School of Science & Mathematics 🦄—for showing us what’s possible as we all live together on the one beautiful planet that needs us. #splashdown 🚀🌎

I can't believe we have reached this point, but this bears crystal clear emphasis: Our global climate system ensures that even "limited" use of lower-yield "tactical" nuclear weapons against civilian or industrial targets would have major regional-to-global scale consequences.

By my count, there are now over 50 House Democrats, along with two Senate Democrats, who have called for Trump to be impeached or removed via the 25th Amendment for his post on Iran. More here: www.axios.com/2026/04/07/t...

On a day when an unstable president threatens/plans to destroy an entire civilization, let’s hold onto another way—of peace & of care toward each other and the natural world. This bald eagle cam with newborns is a beautiful example of what can be. Our national bird. www.youtube.com/live/B4-L2nf...

A tragic loss.

This doesn’t have to be our future. Every day, every headline, is a chance for us to harness our feelings to make a difference on #climatechange. Check out SHIFT by Project Drawdown and @kimberlynicholas.bsky.social at jointheshift.earth to learn what to do. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Cheaper, more efficient, and saves lives by contributing way fewer emissions. And it feels great driving past the fossil fuel station and never having to stop there. I love my EV (a Kia EV6). Great graphics by @karinkirk.bsky.social @climateconnections.bsky.social.

While on one hand it speaks to the calmness we need these days (and the retro visuals *are* soothing), on the other hand I’m struck by the psychological incongruity of nostalgic #weatherchannel visuals with smooth jazz when #extremeweather due to #climatechange is becoming more frequent and intense.

Just got this severe warning for wind. Our NOAA weather radio beeped a full ten seconds before any of my apps did. Get a #weatherradio.

As a clinical psychologist, I’m very disturbed that the Supreme Court has ruled against a ban on “conversion therapy,” a long-discredited, illegitimate practice that causes many serious harms. Amicus brief supporting CO, filed by 14 mental health orgs: www.apa.org/about/office... #scotus

Another day, yet another example of the administration’s insatiable, bottomless need to dominate and destroy every form of life that is “other” to them. We’re meant to live in harmony with the natural world, not to obliterate it. #biodiversity #wildlife #ecology #ESA #godsquad #nature

Fossil fuel companies and their political allies have continued their campaigns of deception about climate change for decades and counting. Campaigns of power, cruelty, and dehumanization that hurt people the world over. And it’s only getting worse. When will we say enough?

Great article on @alexsteffen.bsky.social in the NYT today! Grateful for his thinking and foresight as we live with ever-increasing risks from climate change. #climatechange

Hey! Our personal climate strategy work is in the New York Times today! Here's a gift link. Would sure appreciate your help spreading the word! www.nytimes.com/2026/03/21/n...

The truth is the truth, no matter how loudly obsequious people cheer. #stateoftheunion

This season's Personal Climate Strategy Workshop starts Thursday. I'd really appreciate your help spreading the word. Please repost, forward or copy onto little notes and share via carrier pigeons. Thanks! alexsteffen.substack.com/p/it-will-ch...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Let’s do it together.

Bravo, @dananessel.bsky.social! Thrilled that my state is the 11th state to sue Big Oil for the many harms they cause to you and me and everyone else. #climatechange #greentransition

This #extremecold —and the physical and psych. harms it may bring—is brought to you by the intentional burning of #fossilfuels. It’s not an accident that we have these extreme weather events. Govts, billionaires, the oil and gas industry, and corporations know this and should be held accountable.

Regime change in Venezuela, writes M. Gessen, “is a victory for Putin, because it is a blow — quite likely fatal — to the new world order of law, justice and human rights that was heralded in the wake of World War II.”

Nothing in this David Victor essay indicates that there’s any danger in heating the planet over 2C. Instead, he says that slowing decarbonization is good. 🤔 www.nytimes.com/2025/12/27/o...

Pete Hegseth says the Defense Department “does not do climate change crap.” But a new report suggests that the Pentagon is engaging with the issue in one serious way: Stockpiling dozens of critical minerals, it is threatening the energy transition by hoarding valuable resources.

Democracy is participatory: Vote your beliefs at local/state/fed level. 66% (incl 57% of lib/mod Repub) also support transitioning the US econ to 100%clean energy by 2050. Current administration intentionally going aggressively in the opposite direction. #climate www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Ret’d last night from travels incl’g Estonia, part of USSR for 50 yrs. Sobering to see KGB prison cells, Mus of Occupation, & “Soviet Statues Graveyard” that incl’d statues of Stalin.

Climate change makes it all worse. “That breaks down when you are in a world of a changing climate and now … the dice are weighted towards higher flows,” she said.”
