Aloha: I’m a Hawai’i legislator, labor organizer, and climate activist. I’d love to connect with other elected officials and climate policy thinkers who are trying to make sense of what to do about climate in this new Trumpian age. Thanks! #climatecrisis

Don’t be mistaken: Hawaii 100% has the right to sue fossil fuel companies.
The Trump administration has sued the states of Hawaii and Michigan, seeking to prevent them from suing major oil companies over the role they have played in causing climate change, saying the Democratic-led states were standing in the way of domestic energy production reut.rs/44WDpwe

“At 3C of global heating, climate damage cannot be insured against, covered by governments, or adapted to. That means no more mortgages or new real estate devt, no long-term investment, no financial stability. The financial sector as we know it ceases to function and capitalism ceases to be viable.”

I need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence.

This is a campaign of eradication.

I’m really proud of my senator. I think you’ll find that Hawaii, with our history of dealing with foreign oligarchs and US empire, will play a key role in resisting this new era of revanchist American jingoism. Trump is just another McKinley.

He joins us to talk about how Dems plan to fight back and what climate advocates and clean energy firms need to do for the next four years:

We might yearn for paradise, temporal or spiritual. But to our descendents our habitable planet will look like an almost unimaginable paradise. No tech fantasy, no space station or controlled environment will ever compare.
Fight for what we have. This is our heaven, and there can be no other.
