Wait a bit longer before you clean up leaves and stems in the garden- somebody’s still using them!

I stand with Zelensky. A brave soul hoping democracy can stand against tyranny.

Tuesday Congress will vote on measures to solidify the wealth inequity in the US. I can call my TN congressman Any Ogles (who proposes we give Rump the option of a third term) but maybe YOU have a House Rep. who might listen.

Research shows that we base our perception of ‘normal weather’ on what we’ve experienced in the last 2-8 years. So we forget what was ‘normal’ before that period and keep resetting our baseline of normal.

We all know what happened to that frog.

We need to talk about what is NOT being cut.
This is the definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face- in the worst way.
Cutting off the path to preserving the beauty and wealth that belongs rightfully to our children. To pay oil barons so they will make a man king.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

It’s more important now than ever to know our rights in this country. We cannot allow hate and fascist policy to harm our country. 🇺🇸

It's official - the LA fires were 25% worse because of climate change—but is that enough to convince people?

As new fires erupt, and thousands more are forced to evacuate Christiana Figueres explains why the 'messy numbers' are still a warning we can’t ignore.

🌍 “This is the greatest turning point in history.”
2025 is halfway through the decisive decade for climate action and we're not where we need to be.
Join Christiana Figueres, Tom Rivett-Carnac, and Paul Dickinson to explore how we can turn things around.

I discovered the world of climate comedy thanks to @maxboykoff.bsky.social & @mattywin.bsky.social - and it is so therapeutic!

I’d love to curate a starter pack on climate & humour, but I only have 3 accounts, with @belinaraffy.bsky.social.

Baba Brinkman + Chuck Nice aren’t here.

Suggestions? 🧵

From the “Never Judge nature’s book by its cover” chapter on finding the beauty of nature in every season if you look closely- this is native TN plant commonly known as “frostweed” … often mistaken for trash by the road 😆❄️❤️

I find fall- even cloudy, oddly warm and brown- to be beautiful. A native bee likely tucked itself into the dried purple cone flow stem and goldfinches are snacking on the seeds. Evidence life goes about its usual business and doesn’t care the we’re so f***ed up.
Somehow that’s comforting.
