Hey Grok @imleftylimbaugh, clever people don't need you to write a tweet. The energy you require for fake tweets for dumb asses, is poisoning a community of descendants of emancipated slaves.

Japanese and Alaskan climate advocates are coming together to tell Prime Minister Ishiba to refuse pressure to invest in Trump's pet project, Alaska liquified natural gas (LNG). The project is expensive, impractical, and would be ruinous for our climate.

If Ishiba gives the nod, Japan will be buying overpriced gas and adding to global warming

Japan’s LNG financing, like Cameron & Freeport LNG, devastates Gulf Coast communities—poisoning air, destroying ecosystems, & worsening climate impacts. Low-income communities of color bear the cost. 🛑 Time to #StopLNG.
How is Japan linked to Texas oilfields? New Permian dispatch out now: https://t.co/iPqXE6PvZN

1/ Gulf South activists are in Tokyo with a clear message: Japanese finaciers are bankrolling environmental racism with LNG investments. @fossilfreejapan @foejapan @OilfieldWitness @txenvironment Read in @commondreams + 🧵👇 #StopLNG #FossilFreeJapan

As we meet with Japanese financial institutions and policymakers, we carry a clear message: The human cost of Japan's LNG investments can no longer be ignored.

As the top public financier of US LNG, Japan is fuelling the #ClimateCrisis. For Gulf South families, this means: ⚠️ Higher cancer risks 💨 Toxic air & water 🐟 Lost livelihoods The human cost of Japan's LNG investments can no longer be ignored. Enough is enough. #StopLNG

As Japan positions itself as a clean energy leader, its financial institutions are making a costly miscalculation—doubling down on US LNG investments.
