At COP30 in Belém do Pará, more than 50,000 people made history with a clear, unified message:

“It is time to bury fossil fuels and build a clean, just future.”

Today, we symbolically laid fossil fuels to rest. ✊

Brazil is drilling in the Amazon while claiming to be a climate champion! I have just asked Brazil to choose to lead the world away from fossil fuels at #COP30. Add to the pressure👇

Tell Brazil: Lead the World Beyond Fossil Fuels at COP30
Brazil is promising to protect the Amazon while allowing new oil drilling there. Brazil's leaders must choose: help the world move away from oil, or get left behind.

Yesterday, the House Natural Resources Committee voted to erase protections for gray wolves. Now Rep. Boebert's legislation will go before the full House of Representatives.

Tell Congress: No more wolf hunts.

Rep. Boebert’s bill would open the door to thousands of wolves being slaughtered.

Trump is trying to hand billionaires another tax cut — while climate disasters get deadlier and the rest of us foot the bill. The ones who should be paying? Big Oil companies like @exxonmobiloil.bsky.social that caused the climate crisis.

This Tax Day, we’ve got one thing to say: Pay up, Exxon 🧾

🌳🌲It's International Day of Forests! The 1,000-year-old trees in Alaska's Tongass National Forest make it an ecological gem and critical carbon sink — yet Trump ordered that it be opened to logging. It's time to wake Congress up and tell them to save the Tongass today: act.350.org/letter/mar-2...

Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the Paris Climate Agreement — again. But we refuse to feel powerless. So how do we fight back?

By pushing state leaders to step up.

Yesterday, President Biden designated the Carlisle Federal Indian Boarding School National Monument in Carlisle, PA. The designation acknowledges the painful and traumatic legacy of the Indian boarding school era and honors the resilience of Indigenous communities and Tribal Nations.
