Oh man, I had a lot of ideas for how to disrupt trumps planned speech at the in tomorrow, but “oil spill on first ave that turns the whole think into a Mario kart course” was not one of them. gothamist.com/news/oil-spi...

NEW from @jael.bsky.social: A federal court just lifted Trump’s Revolution Wind injunction. “The decision marks the renewables industry’s first major legal victory against a federal war on offshore wind.”

Yesterday thousands of people organized the BIGGEST day of action to celebrate clean energy in generations. 🙌 THANK YOU for making Sun Day 2025 a huge success! ☀️ Here are some incredible pictures from across the country 📸🧵

🚨 Breaking news from the #UNGA sidelines: 🇨🇴 Colombia will host the 1st International Conference on the Phase-Out of Fossil Fuels in April 2026 Read our press release to learn more: fossilfueltreaty.org/phase-out-conference #FossilFuelTreaty #PhaseOutSummit #FossilFreeFuture #ClimateJustice #UNGA

We can reduce electricity bills 20% by 2030 if we all promote demand flexbility programs. Tesla just announced that they sold their 1,000,000th powerwall. Millions of new water heaters, smart thermostats, home EV chargers, and other devices can be enrolled in demand flexibility programs.

As Sun Day dawns, some of my favorite messages are from folks who are spending the day putting panels on Habitat for Humanity houses. They will be a blessing for decades to come, making those homes truly affordable

While companies and media are rolling over, The People are not. More than 150 demonstrations are taking place today, including this one in Spokane. #RadioFreeAmerica

CW: protester being struck in the head by a pepper ball Footage I took earlier of the moment Reverend David Black, a regular protester outside of the Broadview Detention Center, was shot in the head with a pepper ball by ICE agents on the roof of the facility.

There’s something going on here: while Senate and House Dem leadership fold like so many cheap card tables, candidates like @katmabu.bsky.social put their bodies on the line and rally people to the cause. Across history of democratic governance we know what kind of movement wins.

Maine's Jared Golden just voted to give Donald Trump's regime blank checks. #MEPolitics

Want a blueprint for pivoting from climate rollbacks to a strategic climate offense? That's my focus in a new article out today in Democracy Journal. The path forward is a new climate agenda written not about impacted workers & communities, but by them. democracyjournal.org/magazine/78/...

Welfare for an industry that makes hundreds of billions in profits and ravages the climate is civilizational self-harm. End it now. Gift link to my @opinion.bloomberg.com column about the new study from @collinrees.bsky.social & @oilchange.bsky.social www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

Speaker Heastie recognizes what New Yorkers know: it’s not only popular but necessary to ask the wealthiest individuals and the most profitable corporations to pay a little more in taxes so we can deliver an agenda that lowers costs for working families.

Are you ready to get in the streets with a global movement to #MakeBillionairesPay for #fossilfueledfascism? Scroll through to get deets on the big march in NYC 9/20 & stick 9/23 as we #ShutDownTrump at the United Nations. Learn more & rsvp: www.198methods.org/2025/09/10/m...

No one gets this moment any better than the ever-eloquent @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social, so much fun to be working with her on Sun Day www.meditationsinanemergency.com/the-future-i...

🚨 NEW: Climate change is already causing 30,000 deaths per year - a global annual economic loss of $100-350B USD - but the true damage is probably 10x higher. Out TODAY in Nature Climate Change: the first systematic look at the science of "health impact attribution" 🔓 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Last month in Alaska I went hiking in the Tongass National Forest (among other adventures). America's best carbon sink: not just gorgeous, it's useful! Now Trump wants to build roads here, because, well, Trump. Speak out against his proposed Roadless Rule Rollback. actionnetwork.org/letters/defe...

The fortitude — no the *courage* — of these kids in this political climate is very moving. apnews.com/article/yout...

Don’t whitewash genocide. Collective punishment is a war crime and a key tactic in Israel’s genocide in Gaza. 1/3🧵

Both of these stories are accurate - The US is breaking renewable energy addition records - The US is also seeing huge jumps in greenhouse gas emissions The explanation is pretty simple...... www.bloomberg.com/news/article... www.theguardian.com/environment/...

You need to know what might be coming. Trump could have brought the nation together to confront political violence after the murder of Charlie Kirk. Instead he appears to be preparing to use the shooting as a pretext to destroy his political opposition and consolidate power.

We can't wait to elect a Climate Mayor to NYC! Join us at Sounds of Brazil in NYC on Wed 9/24 from 7:30-11pm to party, fundraise, and hear from local speakers and electeds on why the climate movement needs to elect Zohran this November! secure.actblue.com/donate/25cw-...

Sunday reading: The Right Wants a Reichstag Fire I wrote about the murder of Charlie Kirk, political violence in the United States, and the Trumpists’ desire to find a pretext for purges and mass arrests. This week’s piece:

UC-Berkeley gives Trump administration 160 names “related” to anti-semitism, mostly for voicing support for Palestinians. Judith Butler is among them, she calls this “McCarthyism” UC Berkeley gives Trump administration 160 names in antisemitism probe www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Tell your members of Congress to do everything in their power to stop the increased federal law enforcement in, reject current and future attempts to interfere in DC Home Rule, and support H.R. 51, the Washington DC Admission Act. freedcproject.org/allies?sourc...

Counterpoint: burn it to the ground and salt the earth. FERC has been a broken, rubber stamp agency for decades. We’d be better off paying any smart staff to pull the building apart with their hands than paying them to write regs for this #foaailfueledfascist cabal, again.

Q: What has more than doubled since 2017? A: U.S. subsidies to the fossil fuel industry (tax breaks, lower rates to acquire land, direct appropriations, and other financial support from the US) that all together allow the sector to receive stunning 30,000% ROIs www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Big Oil spent nearly half a BILLION dollars in last year’s election cycle. Now, they’re coming to collect — and they’re getting a big return on investment. Watch. youtu.be/aDQXiNlM5iM?...

People from all over are showing up for DC. This is not a moment. It’s a movement. We are united in our demands. We are all DC! #FreeDC

‘Not scientifically credible’: Scientists repudiate Trump administration climate report www.latimes.com/environment/... via @hayleysmith.bsky.social

“It would be reasonable to ask yourself how you can have a meaningful discussion of any topic in science if you’re ignoring nearly all of the scientific literature on that topic.” 🔥 open.substack.com/pub/theclima...

As some of you have begun to hear, our Dad, Lee Hudson, passed away very suddenly, late on Friday night. Many of you knew him—as a pastor, friend, family member—and I hope memories of time spent with him will bring peace to everyone who he touched during his life.

Administration Secretary Sarah Clark sent an email to all state employees Thursday afternoon informing them that most employees will be expected to be in the office at least three days a week beginning Dec. 1. The Vermont State Employees Association has strongly opposed the plan.

What a cursed sentence (gift link) “The A.I. companies selected to oversee the program would have a strong financial incentive to deny claims. Medicare plans to pay them a share of the savings generated from rejections.”

i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.

Tesla sales plunge 40% in Europe. womp womp. 😂😅🥰

New, from me: America is no longer a functioning democracy. It is a competitive authoritarian system, hurtling rapidly toward authoritarianism. This was a hard piece to write but we can't move forward if we don’t acknowledge where we are. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-author...

ICE took 2 firefighters OFF THE FUCKING FIRE LINE!?

Here's what the third day of elementary school looked like in Mount Pleasant, Washington DC.

You absolutely love to see it “a federal magistrate judge said an arrest in Northeast Washington was preceded by the “most illegal search I’ve seen in my life”” #freethesandwichman www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

The government's colossal failure to respond after Hurricane Katrina led to major reforms at the nation's top disaster agency. Now, the Trump administration has reversed some of those changes.

US renewable investment is down 36 percent this year, while in Europe it's up 63 percent (from the @heatmap.news morning newsletter)

trump does not intend for the next january 6th to fail www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

Another example of how the world will continue on without US leadership -- and another missed opportunity for the US to show up as a trusted partner.

Documents obtained by @prospect.org show that EPA managers are attempting to require prior approval for union-protected organizing activities—on non-duty time. This is a federal agency and employer trying to tell workers what they can do when they're off the clock. James Baratta reports:

Trump’s war on clean energy means higher bills and a weaker grid. He’s killing the projects that keep our lights on and costs down. https://www.cnbc.com/2025/08/24/solar-wind-renewable-trump-tariff-utility-tax-credit-itc-ptc-obbb-electricity-price.html

Park rangers in Yosemite have organized in response to Trump’s attacks on the federal workforce.
