As #Meta pours hundreds of billions of dollars into energy-intensive data infrastructure, it continues to frame AI expansion as visionary. In reality, the pursuit of #AI dominance is accelerating global emissions, and deepening ecological instability.

We disrupted live Fox Weather broadcast, declares "Fox Lies – Rebel or Die" in Midtown Manhattan. Opening umbrellas painted with "FOX LIES" and "REBEL OR DIE," activists called out Fox News and Fox Weather for misleading the public about the climate emergency!

Since 2019, Google’s emissions have surged over 50%, driven by energy-hungry AI data centers. At the same time, its CEO stood front and center at Trump’s 2025 inauguration, endorsing a regime reopening coal plants and gutting climate policy. #BoycottBigTech #TexasFlooding

The United States government is no longer able to protect us from real hazards, such as flash floods, because it’s shifting funds to fake hazards, such as a non-existent immigrant crime wave. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/05/u...

We spray painted “Boycott” and “Tim + Trump = Toxic” on the Apple store’s iconic glass entrance on 5th Ave.

Why? Because Tim Cook showed up smiling at Trump’s 2025 inauguration— but hasn’t said a word while this admin dismantles climate protections. This is climate betrayal.

🧪 Re-upping this story for scientists. The man in the photo and interviewed in the story—is physiological ecologist Nathan Phillips at Boston U. Among other topics, he studies urban gas leaks. He’s also my friend.

Dr Phillips’ own research findings inform his activism.

"Imagine if instead of a movie telling my story, I'd gone to jail. That's essentially what has happened to Steve Donziger."

@realerinbrockovich.bsky.social

We did a thing with Theater of War back in the Summer based on a play we disrupted earlier in the year. Bill Murray performed. Peter Kalmus spoke. It was a whole lotta fun, and now Timeout NY called it the best pop up of the year.

Here's to more public performance and debate!!!
