Our hearts are heavy this week as we enter into Shabbat and approach Tu Bishvat, the Jewish birthday of trees.

Tu Bishvat reminds us of roots, resilience, and renewal.

We hold our communities in our hearts. Shabbat Shalom.

Our hearts are heavy as we enter Shabbat and approach Tu Bishvat, the Jewish birthday of trees. Our tradition teaches that even when the world feels broken, the sacred (much like the roots of a tree) continue to grow beneath the surface.

May this be a moment of grounding, reflection, and action!

A good way to celebrate the birthday of the trees!

Join the Jewish Earth Alliance’s Tu Bishvat Virtual Lobby Day and bring a Jewish voice straight to Congress.

Even if coal weren't the dirtiest, deadliest fossil fuel... the whole point is to burn it.
We're gonna burn those googly eyes...

You know what's cute? SUN. And we just collect it. 🌞

Why the government is trying to make coal cute
Trump said that coal needed better public relations. Then Coalie, the mascot of an obscure federal office, showed up.

📣 ICE OUT 📣

The senseless violence at the heart of the ICE invasion of our cities illustrates the dehumanization that is baked into the Trump administration’s handling of every policy it makes – including climate.

"As our communities refuse to comply with the authoritarian horror we face, we must continue to show up for each other in our neighborhoods and in the halls of power."

Read our statement:
As we pray and mourn, we must keep moving into action. And our elected officials must follow.
Democrats in Congress must act as boldly as the constituents they say they represent by halting funding for ICE until the violence, abuses, and deaths in American communities and immigration detention...

Tell your Senators: Vote NO on the Speed Act 🚫✊ dayenu.org/speed-act-action

The Dirty Deal is back, this time in the form of the SPEED Act. This bill would make it easier for fossil fuel and extractive industries to override community concerns and rush to build destructive projects.

"If Europe and China and India are all headed towards renewables, where does that leave America? It leaves it as a flailing state, whose leaders try to intimidate reason."

Also, failing.

We fought for the setbacks law because no one should have a polluting oil well in their neighborhood.

And: the industry dumps projects in places they don't value: Black, Brown, Indigenous, low-income communities.

“If your kid breathes in air pollution from a power plant or industrial source, E.P.A. is saying that they care only insofar as cleaning up that pollution would cost the emitter.”

Oof, we gotta get back to valuing human beings more than corporations.

It's like a playbook to destroy the climate as quickly as possible.

We joined activists in Trenton, NJ in support of the #MakePollutersPay Climate Superfund law ✊ 🌎

The bill passed through the Senate budget committee! With the session winding down, the bill moves into next session.

It has unprecedented momentum, dozens of sponsors and HUGE grassroots support!
