Update: joined by 100 supporters - including luminaries Bill McKibben and Peter Kalmus - we launched Climate Defiance. For too long, our politicians have treated us as disposable - selling out our futures to CEOs. It's time we rise. It's time we build the world we deserve.

This is hard news to share but a new study from the NOAA just found CO2 levels have hit their highest level in recorded human history. Worse, the RATE of increate is rising. We are in unchartered territory and we do not even fully grasp the extent of the danger ahead. (1/9)🧵

BREAKING: today we shut down ANOTHER keynote address by National Climate Advisor Ali Zaidi. Zaidi represented coal companies before joining Biden's team. Now he's complicit in approving new fossil fuel projects. This is intolerable. We need mass direct action to stop this.

Can't stop, won't stop. We just shut down YET ANOTHER keynote address by the White House Climate Czar. As hundreds of elite policymakers looked on, we forced him to flee the stage. If they make our world unlivable, we will be ungovernable.

UPDATE: we are in PoliticoPro today. "A group of anti-fossil-fuel protesters interrupted a Department of Energy event Wednesday, chanting, 'Keep your promise, no new drilling,' and driving White House national climate adviser Ali Zaidi off the dais." subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews…

BREAKING: we just shut down a keynote speech by Senior Advisor to the President John Podesta. Addressing a room full of millionaires in a 5-star hotel, Podesta said we can only get to net-zero by 2050. So we sang him off the stage.

BREAKING: We just fully shut down Senator Joe Manchin's keynote address. He is shoving a 2,000,000,000 cubic-foot-per-day fracked gas pipeline down our throats. Manchin is not a moderate. Manchin is an ecocidal millionaire. We must resist him with all we've got. And we will.

Huddled masses yearning to breathe free

We have always been here and always will be 🏳️‍⚧️

The temperature in China hit 126 degrees F today (52.2 C.) That beats the old record by an almost inconceivable 3 F. The world is on fire.

As an elementary school teacher, I can promise you that our children are working much harder for their future than we are. “Securing the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity” was the very purpose of the US Constitution. We’ve secured them a shorter lifespan & chaos
