If you are complacent, you are complicit.

#equity & #sustainability wonk. All views are my own.
So pleased that the @startribune.com ran my Letter to the Editor today about cities providing transparency to their residents about entertaining a relationship with #ICE.

Welp, according to this model, even if we manage to go #carbon-negative, centuries from now the Southern Ocean will burp its accumulated heat and warm the #atmosphere all over again. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Duh, it's not EITHER but BOTH re: systemic vs individual #climate action: "people more willing to engage in hi-impact climate action themselves, & who believed these actions to be more effective, showed more support for systemic solutions & a stronger perceived need for structural change."

Get out and ... well, maybe not smell the flowers, but watch the leaves fall, there's poetry in nature.

Do you really need more evidence that government oversight is CRITICAL for protecting people? This example is from the 2018 shutdown, but I don't think coal plants have gotten more ethical since then.
Coal plants emitted more pollution during the last government shutdown, while regulators were furloughed
As soon as the 2018-2019 shutdown began, coal-fired power plants started emitting more particulate matter pollution. And when the inspections resumed, the levels dropped back to normal.

Hundreds of people detained at the Alligator Alcatraz immigration processing center west of Miami, Florida, appear to have vanished. They have disappeared from the ICE online database, and their lawyers and families have been unable to locate them.
