Good morning! This one is actually from yesterday evening as I sat on the beach eating my picnic dinner. #OceanDevotion

Climate Action Now@climateactapp.bsky.social · 2mo agoSolar energy supplied more electricity than coal for the month of May in the U.S!!! Despite repeated setbacks from the Trump administration, solar power continues to shine. It's clean, abundant, increasingly affordable. Imagine what we could accomplish if our policies matched that momentum.
Against all odds, and in the face of strong head winds (pun intended), US solar power out produced coal in recent months! Imagine where we’d be with a different / progressive administration..! apnews.com/article/trum...

The International Olympic Committee is pressuring Ukraine because Vladyslav wore a helmet honoring athletes murdered by russia. He knows he may be sanctioned. He did it anyway. This is defiance. This is memory. #UkrainianView

Thank Rep. Maxine Dexter for Speaking Out Against Genocide

Reseearch just found those living near a golf course groundwater supply have 2x the odds of developing Parkinson’s disease. 😳 “The drinking water will be piped to a series of dirt basins beside the Hansen Dam Golf Course, then percolate into the soil and replenish groundwater before pumping out.“ 🌱
