@JeromeFosterII I became an activist because I am connected to the land and water and any extraction and exploitation is a violent incursion on my history, culture, Elders, language which impacts my ability to survive and the next 7 generations going forward.

Everyone needs to know that these fires were made possible by global heating, which is caused by the fossil fuel industry, which has lied and blocked action for half a century. And that this will all get much, much, much worse until we end the fossil fuel industry

For the children of Gaza, the new year has brought more death & suffering with at least 74 children reportedly killed. Urgent action is needed to end the violence, alleviate suffering, and ensure the release of hostages. A ceasefire is long overdue.👇

Everyone’s New Year’s resolution needs to be “I’ll protest about the lack of action to fix our climate emergency,” this year. We’re behaving as if everything’s hunky dory but it really isn’t.

A single gas leak in Pennsylvania vented more than 1.4B cubic ft of methane into the atmosphere. That’s as much climate pollution as 261 coal plants! There’s nothing “clean” about “#naturalgas" We have so many solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate #climate #renewables
