Earth Day messaging is still stuck at the "recycle harder" level, when what we need is the "sue & disrupt the fossil fuel industry out of existence and put the executives who've spread lies in prison, as billions of lives and life on Earth is at risk" level

Excited to be featured on 7News Boston WHDH! Let's see if we can get Governor Maura Healey to do an interview in direct response to the Hanscom expansion project and how it relates to Massachusett's 2030 legally-mandated climate goals. If you see this, tweet at 7News Boston WHDH and ask! #NoPrivateJets

NEW: The world's most powerful countries are considering a novel climate proposal: Impose a 2 percent climate tax on the world's richest 3,000 people—and give the money **directly** to people in climate-vulnerable countries heated.world/p/nobel-prize-…

20 XR Boston rebels were arrested on 4/20 after shutting down private jet flights for the ultra-wealthy at Hanscom Airfield. We demand Governor Maura Healey block the proposed expansion that would cancel 70% of solar power in MA with a 300% increase in airfield emissions. Extinction Rebellion Global

If Governor Maura Healey is so committed to climate, why isn't she speaking out against the expansion of Hanscom Airfield, Plymouth Airport, and the Cape Cod Airport? Support for innovators begins with shifting taxpayer dollars away from gifts to the ultra-wealthy. #NoPrivateJets #mapoli

I'd make this the lead story in every paper and newscast on the planet. If we don't understand the depth of the climate crisis, we will not act in time. theguardian.com/environment/ar…

Here we go again... Keeping an eye on a major heatwave that could strike the Southwest U.S. during the week beginning June 20th. Ocean temperatures are at all-time record highs. This is not going to be a forgiving summer.

This will become increasingly common and increasingly severe. It is caused by the fossil fuel industry, whose executives and lobbyists have been lying and bribing for decades to stop any meaningful action.

🎉 It's out! 🥳 In our new NatureClimate paper we look at: • How scientists perceive climate change and their role in tackling it; • Their engagement beyond research; • The barriers they face to getting more involved. 🧵Maien Sachisthal jonas haslbeck (jmbh.bsky.social) nature.com/articles/s4155…

We asked about scientists' climate beliefs, climate actions, the role of scientists and academic institutions, and what is required to address climate change. 91% of all surveyed scientists believe that we need fundamental changes to social, economic, and political systems.
