New @nyccomptroller.bsky.social @marklevinenyc.bsky.social & NYC pension trustees are weighing a $40B+ move from BlackRock over its climate failures — which could set a key national precedent, writes Sierra Club ED Loren Blackford in @crainsnewyork.bsky.social:
Op-ed: City's new comptroller, pension trustees must lead on climate
Comptroller Mark Levine and pension trustees can protect the city and its workers from the financial impacts of climate change.

The Sierra Club is suing the Environmental Protection Agency over its rollback of key climate protections, arguing the move is illegal, unscientific, and harmful to public health.

The Sierra Club is saddened to learn of the passing of Rev Jesse Jackson. Civil rights leader, environmental justice advocate, and a strong tireless voice for those this nation too often fails to hear. We send condolences to his family, loved ones, and all who admired him as we celebrate his legacy.

In a new @newsweek.com, leaders from the @sierraclub.org, @nrdc.org, Environmental Defense Fund, and @earthjustice.org warn that the Trump administration’s latest Environmental Protection Agency pollution policy puts corporate profits ahead of public health.
Trump Doesn’t Value American Lives. His New Pollution Policy Is Proof | Opinion
The Trump administration is poised to throw out the very idea that climate pollution is a threat, too.

On this season of Coal is Blind, the choice between renewables and coal may seem easy, yet Trump can't get enough of his toxic relationship with coal power plants.

Trump just announced $175 million to upgrade six aging coal plants instead of retiring them.

Today, in a brazen assault on the health and welfare of the American public, the Trump administration announced its rule revoking the Environmental Protection Agency’s longstanding greenhouse gas endangerment finding under the federal Clean Air Act.

The Tennessee Valley Authority has announced plans to potentially roll back retirement dates for the Kingston and Cumberland coal plants, locking the region into coal energy for years to come. These inefficient coal plants will only add more burden to our budgets and pollute our communities.

Michigan is now the 11th state to sue Big Oil for its climate lies. 👏 👏

In a groundbreaking antitrust suit, Michigan says the "cartel" of ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, BP, and the American Petroleum Institute conspired to block clean energy, protect fossil fuels, and drive up costs for consumers.

California pension @calpers.bsky.social invested $60B in 'climate solutions'. So why does that include fossil fuels?
