New England is significantly more forested now than it was in 1900. Two photos taken looking north in Connecticut River Valley from the summit of Mount Holyoke in Hadley, Massachusetts.

Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it politic?’ But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”

If you want to support #climateaction and mitigation for the global climate crisis use your consumer power. Close your accounts and cancel credit cards with these companies.
“In the space of a month, the six largest banks in the United States — Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Citi, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan — all pulled out of the Net-Zero Banking Alliance.”

Banks are abandoning ESG en masse, says @paulwaldman.bsky.social.

Banks are running scared from climate commitments — for now.
