My partner runs a high school health clinic in Minneapolis. She needs help stocking a food pantry for hungry kids. All money will go directly to providing food for the kids. Any leftover money will go to paying down their school lunch debt. Please share! gofund.me/48c19161

With another El Niño on the way later this year, it's increasingly likely that 2024 will be the year that planet Earth passes 1.5°C of warming. In no part of the entirety of the history of human civilization have global temperatures risen this fast. newscientist.com/article/235467

A "climate tipping point" is not something we will wake up to one morning. It's a slow escalation of conditions in which we eventually realize there is no returning to the climate there once was. Every bit of warming we do makes it worse, kind of like an ever steeper slide.

This image from today's IPCC synthesis report is brutal. The existing policy trajectory represents a profound failure of our governments, and of our international political system. We need much more aggressive mitigation and much stronger international cooperation.

💫some personal news💫Over the summer, I got the idea for an all-Black climate essay collection. I told another Black woman about it and she asked, “do you think you could find enough people?” So I went home and wrote the proposal. saw the vision, and it’s happening!
Climate justice writer Mary Annaïse Heglar's 'TIL EARTH AND HEAVEN RING, a collection of essays by Black writers, activists, and intellectuals on topics including the relationship between climate and colonialism, environmental racism, the climate movement as a natural progression of the Civil Rights movement, climate change and hip-hop, and more, to argue that the history and future of climate change are inextricably linked to the Black experience, to Lisa Lucas at Pantheon, in a pre-empt, by Adam Schear at DeFiore (World).

Currently has 50,000+ members. That means there are 10,000's of potential solar leads within our audience alone — and with an average deal size of $20K, that's $200M in potential dealflow. Just a shocking amount of potential solar business & potential carbon emissions saved. 😍

We just completed a brand-new member survey of our audience at in support of a prospective partnership with a major solar company. I was *shocked* to see how enthusiastic our community is toward participating in climate solutions, particularly rooftop solar.
