So proud of my friend and former colleague, Saadia Madsbjerg, who will be the next President of The Coca Cola Foundation. The Coca-Cola Co. is lucky to have her and I look forward to the great work and impact ahead.

"The #LEAFCoalition will at least double the price of carbon [$10/ton], making conservation more attractive ➡️ intended to make forests more valuable standing than cut down" econ.st/3ezuxCp

Good piece on #LEAFCoalition by @c_brucelockhart & Steven Bernard; captures the urgency of protecting tropical forests. And—worth noting that participating companies commit to reduce emissions above & beyond own efforts, not as “compensation” for emissions. on.ft.com/3i3BCwZ

This is Angel Toala in 2007 in the Amazon the day before he died of stomach cancer. For years Angel drank from a stream near his house poisoned by a Chevron well. Thousands in Ecuador have died while Chevron spends billions to criminalize lawyers. Wrong. loudematteis.com/crude-reflecti…

I wish politics and diplomacy were more like this.

"The #LEAFCoalition recognizes that not one sector has the tools alone to deal with this massive issue. It is a public-private partnership designed to unlock massive new flows of capital to change incentives on the ground to reverse #deforestation." Eron Bloomgarden

Wow - that’s huge! And already!! Congratulations to Eron Bloomgarden and the team at Emergent!! Lorenzo Bernasconi Nat Keohane and others on the Board.

To keep forests standing, we need to find ways to change economics on the ground to give them non-extractive value. One of the best ways to do that is to pay for forest ecosystem services, and the one that's the biggest is carbon. #carbonmarket #sustainabledevelopment #VCM

I'm thrilled to be talking at TEDCountdown tomorrow (11:15-1pm BST) about the #LEAFCoalition, which has committed $1B for tropical forest protection at scale. LEAF combines innovative forest finance + a new model of corporate leadership on climate. leafcoalition.org

Tune in at #COP26 World Leaders’ Summit: Action on Forests and Land Use on November 2 at 10:00 AM GMT to learn how the #LEAFCoalition delivers on its mission to halt tropical #deforestation by 2030: bit.ly/3CB1yry

#WeRemember the Jews who were targeted for extermination and other victims of Nazi persecution. We honor their memory by calling out the rise in #antisemitism and say #NeverAgain.

Russian army is firing from all sides upon Zaporizhzhia NPP, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe. Fire has already broke out. If it blows up, it will be 10 times larger than Chornobyl! Russians must IMMEDIATELY cease the fire, allow firefighters, establish a security zone!

This is Israel’s Bloody Sunday. U2

.Anthony Ramos lends his voice and has a message for Republicans: Don't fuck with Puerto Rico.

BREAKING: Will.i.am just dropped a new track titled "Yes She Can"—and yes, “She” is Kamala Harris. This is the anthem America needs to hear right now.

I was impressed with how well Anthony Scaramucci made the case for Kamala Harris and against Trump this morning on CNBC

That only works if you’re not actually crazy, I’m afraid.

¡DELIRANTE Y PELIGROSA! Luisa González dice que Venezuela es “modelo” y que allá se vive mejor. ¡¿En serio?! ¿Admirar una dictadura que mató de hambre a su gente? Eso no es ignorancia, es maldad. ¿Van a dejar que una fanática destruya Ecuador?
