📣👋 New paper from @SierraClub out today — a long time in the making. It challenges conventional sustainable investing and urges asset owners to confront climate change as a systemic threat to the global economy and long-term portfolios. 👉 Full paper: https://t.co/BbaikTj8tZ

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is really bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal:

👀 BlackRock just lost another ~$6B mandate after backsliding on addressing climate risk to its clients’ portfolios. NYC pension trustees meet this week and could approve the @NYCComptroller recommendation to shift $42B for the same reason. 🍿

🚨NEW investigation from The Guardian finds the billionaire CEOs of liquified gas company Venture Global bought millions of company shares just days after a meeting with White House officials, who then issued a key permit to expand VG’s fortunes in Europe.

🔥New @ReclaimFinance report endorsed by @SierraClub reveals pension funds are failing to stop their asset managers from supporting fossil fuel expansion. 🤯30 biggest US & European AMs hold $17B in new bonds to fossil fuel developers. Read more 👇

In 2025, much of the financial sector backtracked on climate action — but one major pillar stepped up: public pensions that manage trillions in workers’ savings.🫰 Here’s our @SierraClub campaign year-end review of key developments & what’s next 👉 https://t.co/E2G3hqLETy

"Private equity’s money-extracting playbook isn’t anything new, and the consequences that usually follow aren't either." We share the concerns and criticisms from @SenWarren, @SenSanders, and @SenBlumenthal. Sierra Club is proud to have opposed BlackRock's buyout of

Let’s send the biggest mensch I know to congress! We need leaders who will stand up with moral clarity and courage in this moment more than ever, and @bradlander is that leader. Go to https://t.co/MZuTwhFSjz to join the fight! #fightdontfold #landerfornyc #landerforcongress

Last week, Comptroller Lander recommended NYC’s pension funds drop BlackRock and two other public markets asset managers due to their inadequate decarbonization plans.   After evaluating the pension systems’ 49 managers, only three failed to submit plans that address climate risk

Climate change threatens our economy and millions of workers' retirement security. NYC pensions can set a powerful precedent: asset managers who fail to confront climate risk should expect to lose clients to those that do better. @SierraClub statement ⬇️ https://t.co/rpDDJ48778

👀 If the NYC pension boards adopt the @NYCComptroller's recommendations and move BlackRock's $42B mandate to other asset managers, it could be one of the most consequential climate-related actions ever taken by a pension fund in the US or anywhere in the world.

Now, it’s time for me to hand responsibility off to the next stewards of our shared future – both of the retirement security of our City’s employees, and of the planet we live on. MAGA money managers are trying to burn up both. We must not let them. https://t.co/4ZKN11uF9Q

Today I’m recommending that NYC’s pension funds drop BlackRock and 2 other (out of 49) public markets asset managers due to their inadequate decarbonization plans. Climate risk is financial risk – we need asset managers who will invest responsibly. 🧵 https://t.co/g0kK3Y8qQs

Petrostates and their political allies are doing everything they can to try to stop the world from making progress on solving the climate crisis. They fiercely opposed what would have been the most important step forward at COP30: the development of a roadmap away from fossil

Here’s where we are and what’s ahead 👇 "This work is not only strategic, it is joyful and meaningful, and we will keep working to build a more powerful movement. This is our story to write." 😤

The NYT piece also got it wrong about our broader movement and the moment we’re in 👇

If you read that @nytimes hit piece about @sierraclub and thought it didn’t quite smell right, you were right... Here’s our Executive Director, @Loren_Blackford, setting the record straight — starting with what it got wrong about the organization 👇

The Sierra Club is always evolving, but our mission stays constant: ensure everyone in this country has access to clean air, clean water, affordable clean energy, and public lands. We’re focused on the work ahead. Onwards, together.

This weekend, the New York Times ran a story claiming Sierra Club’s values have diluted our mission. They couldn’t be more wrong. The list of their errors is too long for one social post, but we go over some examples in these slides.

Does Chris Murphy deserve our attention? He certainly wants it. A scholar of Democrats’ failures, Murphy embodies his party’s quest to rebuild its brand. The question is whether an insider like him is up to the task. Six months with @chrismurphyct: https://t.co/QdF4Myje9V
