Climate change has drastically increased extreme rain and flooding. The people of western Washington state are paying the price. ⛈️🌊 #ClimateCrisis #Flooding www.nytimes.com/2025/12/16/w...

It's International Migrants Day and climate migration is a worsening crisis. Caused by extreme weather events, it displaced 20 million+ in 2023. By 2050, that could be 10x worse. WHO is calling for migrant health protections. www.who.int/news/item/06...

Only 1 in 3 river basins had normal conditions last year. Droughts and floods - and sometimes both - are hammering regions as the #climatecrisis disrupts the global water cycle. 🌍💧 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

🌪️ Once rare and regional, dust storms are now striking harder, more often, & in places that have never faced them before. From fatal pileups in Kansas to zero-visibility skies over Chicago, the Midwest may be facing a dangerous new normal. #climatechange insideclimatenews.org/news/2109202...

💯

We stand with communities on the frontlines of the #ClimateCrisis, from the Rockies to the Himalayas. Mountains provide water, biodiversity & protection and they're under threat. #ClimateAction can't wait. Let's protect what sustains us. 💚🏔️

🚨UPDATE: We are excited that Congresswoman Laura Friedman is joining us as a keynote speaker for our DNC Climate Council meeting in Los Angeles, California on 12/13 from 11am - 12:30pm PT RSVP to the Council: forms.gle/67oSHWTmBLei...

NO mention of fossil fuels in the #COP30 "deal." Not surprising: 1600+ fossil fuel lobbyists got entry, more than any country delegation except the host country. 🛢️🔥 #ClimateCrisis #FossilFuels www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Let's not forget: Trump-Vance handed $100 million to Big Coal. Coal is still 16% of U.S. power - we should be leading the world in cheaper, clean safe #renewables, not clinging to the past.🚫⛏️ thehill.com/policy/energ...

A data center could guzzle 1 MILLION gallons of water per day in rural town in Michigan - right on top of farmland & wetlands. In August, the group PACT had nearly 1000 signatures to put this rezoning on the ballot. This is what climate democracy looks like. insideclimatenews.org/news/0910202...

Georgia Public Service Commissioner-elect Hubbard @peterhubbardga.bsky.social is 100% correct. We are excited by his election! ☀️🌎 Full interview with Peter here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg8U...

We should not forget that the COP30 deal does not even mention fossil fuels, which is an abysmal failure to address the root cause of the #ClimateCrisis and undermines the legitimacy of the entire UN convening. #COP30 www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

The richest 0.1% people in the world increased their carbon emissions by nearly 1,000x more than the poorest half from 1990-2023. We need Billionaire Taxes everywhere. Now. #ClimateAction ☀️🌿 www.commondreams.org/news/tax-and...

🐦‍⬛ 🦦 Wildlife populations went down, on average, by nearly 75% from 1970 and 2020. And #ClimateChange is a big part of why. www.weforum.org/stories/2025...

RSVP: Make calls to Get Out the Vote for Aftyn Behn for Congress - and help flip the House. Election Day is tomorrow, Tues. 12/2. Phone bank at Noon CST (1p ET / 10a PT) www.mobilize.us/aftynforcong... I'm in Tennessee campaigning for this fantastic candidate. 💙Tennessee Dems!

Looking forward to speaking with the wonderful High School Dems Women's Caucus tonight! The #ClimateCrisis disproportionately harms youth - and women and girls. And their leadership is crucial. @hsdems.bsky.social #HSDA www.instagram.com/p/DRiyA4tjWS...

Trump has turned his back on people and planet once again, but millions of Americans haven’t. The fight for #climatejustice is far from over. And the US will be back in the fight. #Vote thehill.com/homenews/ap/...

We’re thankful for the land that sustains us and mindful of our duty to protect it, on Thanksgiving and every day. By honoring Indigenous wisdom and taking #climateaction, we can ensure future generations inherit a planet worth giving thanks for. 🌎🦃

As formerly incarcerated people work to build new lives, Trump’s rollback of #cleanenergy is shutting down the jobs they trained for. insideclimatenews.org/news/1109202...

Today 8pm ET: Excited to speak on this livestream about the huge infrastructure, economic and related climate challenges in my home state of Michigan, and how a National Infrastructure Bank (NIB) could be a game changer. #NationalInfrastructureBank RSVP: us02web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Summer is overstaying its welcome. In 90% of cities, summer heat now lasts an average of 10 extra days compared to 1970, putting strain on public health, ecosystems, and agriculture. 🌡️☀️ www.axios.com/2025/09/16/s...

Guess who is paying the $80 million price tag (and counting) for Trump's obsession with coal and his "emergency" order forcing a Michigan coal plant to stay open? The ratepayers. Working Michigan families. Make it make sense. insideclimatenews.org/news/3110202...

As extreme weather becomes more frequent and intense, ramping #FEMA ⬆️ is the answer - not "remaking" it. Whatever that means - probably chaos, cuts and more American's homes, businesses and lives endangered. www.axios.com/2025/08/25/f...

Our national parks have dozens of orphaned wells leaking greenhouse gases. The National Park Service has zero engineers left who plug these wells. The last one was just let go. 🏞️🌲 #ClimateCrisis www.nytimes.com/2025/10/31/c...

52 years ago tomorrow, five circumpolar nations signed the Agreement on the Conservation of Polar Bears, the first international pledge to protect the bears. Biggest threat in 1973? Hunting. Today? Climate change, which causes sea ice loss.🐻‍❄️ www.arcticwwf.org/the-circle/s...

🚨NEW STUDY: Heat exposure caused over 600 billion labor hours lost, resulting in over a $1 trillion lost in productivity. 🥵 #ClimateCrisis www.who.int/news/item/29...

The U.S. promised Pacific nations real climate action. Then Trump pulled us out of the Paris Agreement, shut down USAID, and slashed financial support. Lives and whole countries are at stake. #ClimateCrisis 🌊 www.nytimes.com/2025/09/12/w...

On #VeteransDay, we honor the courage, sacrifice, and service of our veterans. We stand with you, today and every day.

The housing market is starting to crack under #climatechange. Insurance is skyrocketing. Home values are falling. David Burt, who predicted the 2008 crash, says we’re in a “major paradigm shift.” www.axios.com/2025/09/23/d...

Congratulations to rural, environmental, and education champ PJ Errera, who won his race for school board member! 💙 PJ is committed to advocacy, safety, and transparency as he fights for Kent, Ohio on the school board. 📚 #Elections2025

Congratulations to climate and affordable energy champ Dr. Alicia Johnson! 💙 Alicia is the first Black woman to hold statewide executive elected office in GA. And she's committed to transparent, accountable public process as she works to regulate privately owned energy utilities. #Elections2025

🚨NEW: The world will overshoot 1.5C warming by 2035. “We don’t want to see the Amazon as a savannah. But that is a real risk if we don’t change course." - UN Sec. General ahead of COP30 🌵#ClimateAction

This is a huge win!The Council was proud to support Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard. We were on the ground and on the phones campaigning. Gratitude to our amazing volunteers. One seat at a time, we are taking back our power over the price of power.

Trump slashed the funding that tracked damages from weather disasters. But with $100 billion+ in damages this year and mounting, scientists have stepped up to keep track. ⚡🔥

Hurricane Melissa made 4 TIMES more likely by global warming. Reliance on oil, gas and coal increased its likelihood and intensity. These storms will become even more devastating if we continue overheating the planet by burning fossil fuels. By Xantha Leatham www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/...
