The depth of the shame of a country this wealthy and abundant allowing its people to go hungry is impossible to measure. The fact that a handful of people could fix this by paying their fair share of taxes while still remaining obscenely wealthy makes it even worse.

Live update from war-torn Portland: KATU (local channel which, note, is owned by Sinclair) is doing a "24 hours outside of ICE" live stream. They're just over 12 hours in. Largest crowd so far has been about 5 people with signs walking quietly. The reporters look really bored. Antifa strikes again!
24 hours outside ICE: What is really going on in Portland
Starting Thursday, Oct. 9 at midnight, we will begin a 24-hour livestream outside of the Portland ICE Facility. Our aim is to show the public everything we see.

The federal government is arguing that the facts on the ground in Portland actually don’t matter and the White House should be able to do whatever they want without any possible restraint.
Here’s the link to the live video feed of today’s 9am Ninth Circuit stay motion argument in our National Guard case:

Complying with Trump’s order to suspend the retirement of old coal and gas plants is going to cost billions of dollars per year.

Federal regulators just cleared the way for utilities to add that cost onto ratepayers’ bills. www.utilitydive.com/news/ferc-do...

Niche question for #energysky 🔌💡- does anyone have:
🔹a case study of a transmission line corridor that's being purposely maintained as a fire break (for wildfire)
🔹a case study of a time that a transmission line corridor has acted as an effective fire break during wildfire

would love to chat if so!

⚠️Portland's climate movement needs your help!⚠️

@350pdx.bsky.social is in a financial crisis—it's hard out there for nonprofits right now. We need $150K by Aug 1 to keep the doors open.

We believe in our community to get us through this. Can you chip in? 350pdx.app.neoncrm.com/forms/save35...

Due to major grant shifts, we’ve lost half our projected budget. We organize at the root: capitalism, white supremacy, colonialism. It makes us powerful—and vulnerable when it comes to funding.

Please help, to avoid closure we need to raise $150,000 by Aug 1.

what, respectfully, the fuck is this? coming from a medical doctor, no less? Democrats, is this really the best we're doing right now? @repdexteror.bsky.social, it's not too late to delete this, promise!
RFK Jr. is not wrong. We are failing to keep our communities healthy. This message resonates with many.
 
But I have serious concerns about his ability and expertise to lead such a sweeping overhaul of the HHS workforce. We need accountability, not just rhetoric.

I learned a few lessons from 2016-2020, and one of them is that it helps no one and very negatively affects my mental health if I spend too much time doomscrolling. And also that I shouldn't pay too close of attention to [most] things that I can't have some role in pushing back on or trying to stop.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder:

we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now.

the climate crisis is here, all around us

A friend described the current Democratic response to the political moment “bringing a strongly worded letter to a knife fight” and I can tell that’s one of those phrases that’s going to be sticking

350 PDX and Breach Collective have been busy this year causing trouble for the fossil fuel industry.

Come join us at Worker's Tap on Dec. 7 at 7 PM to celebrate the wins from this past year and get ready for what is to come.

I promise at least one round of Dan Ryan climate caroling!

Lots of new people joining Bluesky in the clean energy and climate worlds over the last few days. I know there are starter packs, but also why don't people introduce themselves? Reply here to say hi!

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

have any of you energysky 🔌💡 / greensky / climate people made a starter pack or feed for climate justice movement folks specifically?
