Americans have really got to unlearn the propagandist indoctrination that socialism is bad.

It means that everyone has what they need, resources are shared, and we care for the earth & those around us.

We've been taught to hate it so capitalists can keep exploiting us and working us to death.

It really is remarkably quieter!
NYC’s congestion pricing is a policy miracle: Less traffic, less noise, faster transit, more business sales, more transit revenue. And it hasn’t produced the negative effects outside the cordon zone we were afraid of.

If you don't feel safe saying what you mean, it's your job right now to find the places that are safe. If that's an affinity group, find that. If that's a neighborhood assembly, find that. If it's you and one friend and you have to find the rest, do that. Don't let their repression be the end of it.

Today, the House GOP censured me for speaking out for the American people against @POTUS’s plan to cut Medicaid. I accept the consequences of my actions, but I refuse to stay silent in the face of injustice. #WeShallOvercome x.com/repalgreen/s...

Funny how DOGE hasn’t cut these credits completely.🧐
Apparently Tesla isn't selling any cars which also means it's not selling carbon credits. It made 2.7 billion in carbon credits last year. Carbon credits is largely what has kept the company afloat
Tesla's Sales Are Falling So Much That the Cash It Rakes in for Carbon Credits Is Under Threat
An important source of carbon credit revenue could quickly dry up for Tesla. And the pressure is on, experts warn.

Yes this! And stop selling praying mantis too!
Can we please leave lady beetles to hibernate in peace instead of scooping them up and selling them to well-meaning gardeners who want to use them as ‘pest control’? Such irony that this interference is a threat to lady beetle numbers … 🐞

More Hochul climate fuckery
Absolutely disgusted to see Governor Kathy Hochul approve today the devastating Iroquois fracked gas pipeline expansion today.

The science and reality is clear. If we want to act on climate, we CANNOT build new fossil fuel infrastructure.

Shame on Governor Hochul. Do better.

I hope they tell us the correct names of areas surrounding it also!
The Indigenous People of North America have decided to go back to calling the Gulf of Mexico, “Chalchiuhtlicueyecatl”. It is what the Nahuatl People originally called it as it is the domain of the goddess Chalchiuhtlicue, who is assoc w/water bodies, including the Gulf of Mexico.

Louder for the folks in the back
Total global energy demand must decline to effectively address the socioecological crisis. Simply decarbonizing our system for converting ecosystems into products/services/waste is not sufficient.

Important lawsuit by LIPC BLAARG and Sierra Club to force the NY DEC to fulfill its duty to enforce the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act! “We need DEC to be better regulators. They need to be the ones to enforce the law.”
