Comms for changemakers. I don't tell stories, I tell facts. I got Disney to vow to electrify Autopia. Co-founder Nat Drive Electric Month. Dodgers--quit shilling for Phillips 66. Sigma Gamma Rho #onemillionrising

Think of the inspiring climate-solutions stories Disneyland could tell. The Dodgers can ring this bell too. Help make it happen by subscribing to Sammy Roth’s new Substack.
Here's why I left @latimes.com to start a newsletter about climate and culture. The story starts with Disneyland, Autopia and my grandfather, an incredible rabbi who passed away last year at 100. Hope you'll subscribe to Climate-Colored Goggles. www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/why-writin...
Why I'm writing about climate and culture
I never expected to leave the Los Angeles Times and start a Substack. Then a story about Disneyland caught me by surprise.

Pass by a lot. Fun and rare to see the blimp.

Breaking News: President Trump wants $230 million from the Justice Department for investigating him, people familiar with the matter say. Any settlement might ultimately be approved by senior department officials who defended him or those in his orbit. nyti.ms/4hmIi5X

Totress Beasley, 65, paid off her home on Jan 7
On Jan 8, it burned down
Like many Americans, it was her retirement plan, but now she doesn't know when she'll get to stop working.

Climate Disasters Are Destroying Black Retirements and the American Dream

I wish I had a scoop just so we could coffee! Haha, but big congratulations.
My 98-year-old stepmom at #NoKings Sound up. "I love this country!"
We made the news! Big Oil Bankrolls Trump & MAGA! Drive #EVs! Our sign spells it out: Fossil fuels & Trump are inseparable. Fighting Trump, who was elected by Big Oil & is paying the industry back by destroying our planet, is fighting climate change. Fighting #climatechange is fighting Trump.

I just realized. #Hegseth is booting Corporal Maxwell Klinger out of the army! He'd probably--check that--he'd DEFINITELY go after my dad, too, lol. My blacklisted dad, below.
One of Boiling Point’s best. Chock full of data and hard, hard realities, but also candid personal insights into how reporters cope in an over-flooded zone. Some #climatesolutions too.
So many Trump administration environmental rollbacks, and somehow my colleague @hayleysmith.bsky.social writes about (almost) all of them. I talked with her about how she does it -- and what you need to know -- on today's Boiling Point podcast. Listen in! open.spotify.com/episode/3bU6...

Another personal highlight of @sundayofaction.bsky.social: Rudy Villado, whose work necessitates driving a truck (full of tools; he is masterful) got to take a spin in an all-electric Chevy Silverado. Electrifying big vehicles makes a big difference. #EVs #NDEW2025 #StopBurningStuff #DriveOnSunshine

Huge thanks to Bernie for supporting Sun Day from the jump!
It doesn’t matter if you’re working class or a billionaire: climate change will hurt your grandchildren.

That’s why I cannot understand oil executives who sacrifice the planet’s health for their short-term profits

We must transform our energy system away from fossil fuels NOW.
Much to celebrate at Sat.'s SunDay/National Drive Electric Month event in Whittier, but a personal peak was meeting Sigma Gamma Rh Sorority, Inc. sister, Ashley Nettles. She test drove a #ZeroEmission Chevy Silverado #EV truck. Rise Up for a #Solar Powered Planet. #SunDayofAction #NDEW2025

Instead of the angry finger-pointing, can we just for one day agree that it is horrible and monstrous to shoot another human? On behalf of my family, we send love to the Kirks and to all the children, parents and innocents who fall victim to senseless gun violence.

It still is cool and many still know how to challenge power, unflinchingly. See @nytimes.com response to newest law suit.
