BREAKING: the Trump admin is green-lighting Utah's attempt to assert control over 8 million acres of public land without a vote, notice or public input. After failing to seize public lands outright, Utah is chipping away at at public land ownership at large. biologicaldiversity.org/w/news/press...

It’s scientifically and ethically wrong to say, “It’s too late to stop climate change.” At Project Drawdown, we will never give up.

Project Drawdown@projectdrawdown.bsky.social · 8mo ago

The climate headwinds have felt stronger and uniquely destructive this year. However, at Project Drawdown, we are NOT slowing down our work on climate solutions - we are stepping up in a big way. There is no scientific or ethical reason to stop fighting for the future! 💚 if you agree!

@biologicaldiversity.org is suing to wipe Trump's face off the America the Beautiful National Parks pass. By law, the pass must display the winning photo of a federal #PublicLands picture contest. Instead, Trump plastered his own face on it. Trump's vanity pass is not American, beautiful, or legal

We Are Eating the Earth is a must read. There's no viable future on Earth without deep agricultural reform. It's our largest and least talked about planetary impact, especially meat production. @mikegrunwald.bsky.social cuts thru the feel good "regenerative ranching" promos show it doesn't scale.

Author @mikegrunwald.bsky.social explains how good intentions have led us astray. Our obsession with meat, myths about biofuels and regenerative agriculture, feel-good ideas based on bad science — he argues it’s time for a fundamental shift in values. #SEJournalBookShelf www.sej.org/publications...

Donald Trump is extremely mad at @biologicaldiversity.org today for winning a last-minute TRO saving sacred Apache land at Oak Flat from being given to a foreign mining company to destroy. He can choke on his own sickening allcaps bile for all I care. We'll never give up the fight for Oak Flat.
