19 detained after rallying inside the lobby of @governor.ny.gov’s NYC Midtown office calling on her to Tax The Rich to defend their medical care. Some spoke with me about why they were arrested, some with chronic conditions defending their own healthcare they’re about to lose. Jail support at 7th.

It’s not news that NY Gov Kathy Hochul wants to gut our state climate law and keep us hooked on fuel fuels at a time when the calamity of such dependency is revealed hourly. Also not news that New Yorkers aren’t into quiet acceptance. Let’s make some news. SHOW UP: www.mobilize.us/fww/event/91...

🧵 My eulogy to Dick Cheney as a biologist who’s been deeply involved for 15 yrs in efforts to ban fracking around the world: More than any other person Dick Cheney is responsible for the veil of secrecy and lies that surround fracking operations, and they are enshrined into law that he created. 1/

Wildlife populations declined by 73% between 1970 & 2020 because of multiple types of pollution, including carbon pollution. Trump is only one of many players in this event which would be happening if he had never been born, and which will continue after he is gone unless we change some things. 🧵

One may conjecture that if the geometry of the thing had been slightly different, if that asteroid had missed the earth and gone on to crash in the sun, the terrestrial dinosaurs might have been good for a few million years more. No dinosaur had any power to make any difference in this matter. 🧵

The Halogene Mass extinction event that we are living in now is triggered and accelerated by the actions of human beings who absolutely have the power to alter its course. This event was well under weigh and well understood decades before Donald Trump entered politics. 🧵

Until people in the climate movement very publicly stop eating meat and flying, we're not going to seem trustworthy. I will die on this hill.

Meat is a blind spot for people who care about climate. When I used to have dinner with my colleague Wally Broecker, the climate scientist who coined the term “global warming”, he would always order a steak.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.
