Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public.

He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit.

Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

Good morning, Blue Sky.

Being resilient is easier when you're surrounded by the right people.

Build communities that make you smarter and tougher for the battles ahead.

Never give up hope. Never stop fighting for what is right. And just.

Whatever comes our way, we will face it together.

🌍 The collapse of nature’s carbon sinks worsens health inequities. Rising CO2 levels drive global heating, pollute air, and increase respiratory diseases in marginalized communities already lacking healthcare access. Climate action must center equity to protect the most vulnerable. 🌱 #HealthEquity
