I just got a call from an "AI recruiter" at Luxus recruiting and let me tell you, that is a sure-fire way to make sure I'll never ever work with you.

From street marches to court battles to the ballot box - we’ve challenged the power of this exceptionally unpopular president.
The lesson from each success we've had is that we need to ramp the political pressure up, always up, not back down, now more than ever.

This a big deal: "China’s carbon dioxide emissions have been flat or falling for 18 months"
China's economy has grown by ~5% in the last year, so this comprehensively debunks the idea (again) that emissions are tied to growth. So yes, faster progress needed, but this is how you turn the corner.

Stop threatening us with a good time
Mike Johnson: "Imagine a scenario where they were in charge and they didn't have the filibuster. We would have nationalized elections, they would infringe on our 2A rights, they'd pack the Supreme Court, and they'd make Puerto Rico and DC states."

Pritzker: "I sent a letter to Kristi Noem and to DHS leadership asking them to pause all of their federal agent operations for the entirety of the Halloween weekend. I'm asking for basic human decency. I think their response will be revealing. Give the children and families of Illinois a break."

I think about these words from Teddy Roosevelt often. Let his birthday serve as a reminder of the generational fight to protect our public lands and waters from being stripped and sold off for greed.

In writing 'Women Changing Cities', it was critical to not just share stories of leaders in the limelight, but also those quietly working on the ground to realise urban transformation. Responsible for Paris' "sweet revolution" of 300 school streets, Priscilla Benedetti is one of those unsung heroes.
