Words fail. Words fail. A new paper from University of Exeter just found that coral reefs have hit their tipping point - the precipice from which there may be no return. This is a calamity. This is a disaster. This is code red for humanity. (1/11) 🧵
Chuck Schumer is a joke. He bent the knee to Trump. Gave MAGA everything they wanted and received not a single concession in return.
This is one of our first ever Climate Defiance actions, where we snuck into the Harvard Club to publicly condemn Schumer in front of his multimillionaire donors.

We won in NY. Billionaires spent MILLIONS trying to override us. We won anyway.
But now they’re regrouping. Seething in their penthouses. Spilling champagne on their Hermès ties. Calling emergency donor meetings.
They’re going to hit back. So here’s what we're NOT doing: going back to brunch.

We Won. And Now The Oligarchs Are Regrouping. Don't You Dare Go Back to Brunch.
Mamdani's victory proves the people can win. But now Trump, Bloomberg, the establishment? They're all BIG MAD and will hit back with all that they have. NOW is the time to organize.

If billionaires can buy NYC's mayoral election even after voters rejected their candidate in the primary, they can buy ANYTHING.

Can Billionaires Buy New York City? Tuesday Will Tell Us
New York City votes Tuesday. The question isn’t who should run the city – it’s whether billionaires get to own it.

JUST IN: We just disrupted this vile, vulture capitalist lovefest. David Rubenstein, Governor Youngkin, and Governor Moore all on stage together, plotting how to profit from our extinction. They were having such a nice time. We ruined it.

When the powerful treat our future as collateral damage, direct action becomes a moral fucking imperative. We just exposed the soulless Joe Manchin at the launch for his book, "Dead Center: In Defense of Common Sense", while he sat blinking on stage like a malfunctioning robot.

While you've been trying to live your life, the planet has been busy setting itself on fire. Last year became the hottest year ever recorded; atmospheric CO2 hit 422.8 parts per million; and the U.S. alone saw $27b in climate disasters, killing 568 people + causing $182.7b in damages.

We disrupted #EnerCom again, while these joker attendees yelled "We love wildfires!"
Do they really think their money will save their homes from the next wildfire? Or that their privilege will save their grandchildren's lungs when we can no longer breathe the air?

20 years ago today, Katrina made landfall in Louisiana, resulting in the death of 1800+ people. Today, survivors are still unhoused. Still fucked by systems that forgot them the minute CNN stopped filming. Still remembering banks who promised help but delivered foreclosures. Still living with PTSD.

These corporate executives were literally playing poker while the planet BURNS. While communities get poisoned. While we inherit a dying world.
