Just a human hoping for a better future. These are terrifying times. Hopefully, with enough community and empathy, we can build a better, more sustainable world.
Earth is now warming faster than at any point in recorded geological history - around 10 times faster than the extreme warming event 56 million years ago and 20 times faster than at the end of the last ice age. We are almost certainly in a new extinction event.

David Attenborough, the voice of Our Planet: “Things are going to get worse”
The voice of some of the most stunning nature documentaries ever made is pessimistic about the future of wildlife on earth.

An unusually strong heat dome will scorch much of the western United States this weekend, bringing the hottest temperatures so far this year to tens of millions from California to Canada.

It's no longer just a passing #heatwave; it's a persistent state, made more than five times more likely by the impact of human-driven #climatechange. @climatecentral.org
Shout out to Colorado Springs residents pushing back at a 16 hr plg commission hearing on a new AI data center near the Garden of the Gods. Despite the backlash, the commission upheld the previous approval of the plan. The fight isn’t over - residents have 10 days to appeal to the City Council.
NEW: Mayor Mamdani announces that he has looked at all options and has determined he does NOT have the legal authority to arrest Netanyahu under the ICC warrant if he comes to New York, but the feds do, and he encourages them to do so. He adds that Netanyahu is NOT WELCOME in New York City.

"Profit above all else" is not a sustainable economic structure
What they don't teach you about heatwaves: It's not just heat. It's: • Your crops dying • Your river drying (Rhine is low again, disrupting shipping) • Your lungs burning from wildfire smoke • Your power grid collapsing It's everything at once.
Trumpy dumbbell and his cronies made another mistake when they tried to "Punish Canada with tariffs due to wildfire smoke". The U.S. is currently one of the biggest climate crisis contributors relative to our population on the planet. If you want clean air, you have to start with renewable energy
The world is literally burning… 🔥 This is not normal.
A reminder: The US, by being the largest historical CO₂ emitter, has caused $10 trillion in global climate damage since 1990. A quarter of this impact is felt domestically, but it disproportionately affects poorer countries.

I think one reason data center outrage is so pronounced is people spent decades recycling and composting and otherwise scrimping to offset energy use and protect clean water, and the second we hit an inflection point for cheap electricity the banking industry said we’re taking all of it, fuck you
Yeah, genuinely, this is why you can't innovate your way out of the crises capitalism causes. Clean energy could be a pathway to abundance for all but instead it's "let's indulge the whims of the richest dickheads the world has ever produced."
Home ground of the Mets is enveloped in wildfire smoke tonight. The World Cup final is happening near by on Sunday…
Air quality has reached unhealthy levels in parts of NYC due to smoke from Canadian wildfires. Poor air quality affects everyone, but some people are more sensitive to it than others, including people with heart or lung conditions, older adults, pregnant New Yorkers, and infants and children.

The dinosaurs couldn’t do anything about what happened to them. Are we really so stupid that we are going to kill ourselves?
Its funny how everyone's idea of heaven is a complete untouched paradise, crystal clear waters, lush green forests, enough food for everyone, classless, moneyless, stateless, a Utopia of peace, unity and happiness. But here on earth it's considered a leftist ideology.
Everybody! Please let’s always remember to keep digging shit out of the ground to burn, even though it has never been necessary. And more data centres, please! The top is a fiction map used in a video about global warming and its affects on France. The bottom is a recent French weather forecast.
This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has announced that Mexico is taking legal action against the United States in regards to the cold blooded murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo by an ICE killer in Texas. They’ll pursue justice for the mistreatment of Mexican nationals. Good. 💙👊
