We are the storytellers of the climate crisis, sharing what’s real, what’s urgent, and what’s possible.
Hurricane Melissa tore through Jamaica, Haiti, and Cuba and is heading toward Bermuda. How did this storm get so strong? And what can you do to provide relief? Find out in this week's Inside the Movement: itm.earth/editions/202...

Why was Hurricane Melissa so powerful? And did climate change play a role? Renowned climate scientist @katharinehayhoe.com separates fact from fiction. #ThisIsClimateChange

Meteorologists have never seen a storm like this. It took under 2 days for Melissa to grow from a tropical storm to one of the largest Atlantic hurricanes of all time. How did this even happen? Watch this to see how climate change is supercharging hurricanes. #ThisisClimateChange

We've reached the first climate tipping point, but we’re still fighting. Illinois is teaching climate in schools, wind turbines are being developed off of Virginia Beach, and Indigenous leaders are reviving prescribed burns to prevent wildfires. Join the movement: itm.earth/editions/202...

There are some big questions we’re asking this week: Can the oil from your french fries help cut emissions? Why does it still feel like summer in October? And what happens when the EPA terminates the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program? Find the answers to these stories: itm.earth/editions/202...

A study released this week found that cancer risks from #pollutingfacilities in Louisiana’s #CancerAlley are up to 11 times higher than previously thought. Watch the video we produced with the study authors and read more about the findings here! bit.ly/3STi1AP

The federal government has shut down. Key functions at the EPA, like enforcement, inspections, and permitting, are being halted. That pause threatens to leave communities without essential climate support and could enable more environmental violations. Stay updated: itm.earth/editions/202...

Megafires used to be rare, but now it seems like there’s a new one every day. Even worse, they are showing up and burning down places we never thought possible. So what’s really going on? Is climate change to blame? Watch this to find out more. #ThisIsClimateChange

Even if you are nowhere near a wildfire, you can still be killed by one. In the aftermath of a fire, smoke can travel thousands of miles. Hidden in that smoke is something deadly, and it may be heading towards you right now. What's going on? #ThisIsClimateChange

Big deadlines are here: Send a comment on the Roadless Rule by September 19. On September 20, join protests for climate justice. September 22 is the last day to comment on the EPA's repeal of the Endangerment Finding. There’s never a true deadline to act, but start here: itm.earth/editions/202...

For the third video in our collaboration series with
@columbiabusiness.bsky.social, we paid a visit to an innovative company aiming to reinvent how we build our physical world. Check it out!
The cement industry is a massive polluter, but Cody Finke and his team of scientists may have a solution. Follow @columbiabusiness.bsky.social Professor and Climate Economist @gwagner.com to Brimstone's lab to see what’s really going on. To learn more: bit.ly/3I7C7oT www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQXP...

When this 25-year-old suddenly passed away, his family was horrified and confused, but it turns out his death was entirely preventable. Roendy Granillo died of heat stroke while at work, and it’s a massive problem affecting workers across the United States. #ThisIsClimateChange

We're thrilled to release our second video from our collaboration with @columbiabusiness.bsky.social and Professor @gwagner.com, where we're exploring how major industries are cleaning up their climate pollution. Watch the video below and go to bit.ly/3I7C7oT to learn more.

We're excited to release the first video in our collaboration with @columbiabusiness.bsky.social and their Climate Knowledge Initiative, which highlights the leading technologies that will reduce pollution in heavy industry. Check it out!
Cement production is one of the largest contributors to climate change, but scientist Leah Ellis may have a solution. Climate Economist and Columbia Professor Gernot Wagner heads to Boston to see just what Leah and her team are up to.

A 30-foot wall of water hit Texas, killing over 100 people, including children. How likely is this kind of flood to happen where you live? The answer can be explained by rolling the dice. Except these days, the game is getting more rigged.

The land of former slave plantations now houses 200 petrochemical plants that poison the air between Baton Rouge and #NewOrleans. What could a #tourism board possibly say to justify this? This imaginary postcard gives one answer. Sign up for alerts from RISE St. James: bit.ly/3GpPLTX.

The #petrochemicalindustry came to Mossville, and Mossville paid the price. But two longtime friends are not going to let spills, explosions, or cancer stop them from fighting to protect the rest of their Southwest Louisiana home. Go to bit.ly/3HSNFw3 to learn more.

Communities in #CancerAlley are trying to preserve the history of their ancestors who were enslaved at the Orange Grove Plantation. But first they need to take down the #pollutingindustry that now wants to build on the land. Go to earthjustice.org/orangegrove to take action now!
