It’s a great time to consider going vegan. No need to worry about the cost of eggs either.
Trump's USDA will roll back safety regulations to “streamline” meat processing.
This will boost corporate profits at the expense of worker health and food safety.
Last year's listeria outbreak tied to Boar's Head killed 10 people.
We need more regulation, not less. Hello?

Trump & Musk's reckless and totally arbitrary mass layoffs are already putting our energy grid at risk to save taxpayers ZERO dollars. Hear it from Katie, who worked at @bonnevillepower.bsky.social for 10+ years before being suddenly laid off by Trump & Musk without cause.

This is what America's conservative "Christians" are doing to the planet's most vulnerable children.
I know this is brutal to look at, my friends, but we all need to face reality and bear witness to what happens when greedy billionaires cut off aid to the world's poorest children.
How callous do you have to be to let children suffer and die to line the pockets of the wealthy and well-connected?

Termination notices going out this afternoon to more than 300 employees of the National Cancer Institute. Access likely ends today. Four weeks paid leave and that’s it.

Cacao trees are highly sensitive to temperature. More heat stress can reduce growth, lower yields, and impact the quality of cocoa beans.

There is a lot going on right now and it’s normal to feel overwhelmed. Just remember the 20-60-10 rule!
After 20 minutes of work, take a 60-minute stroll through the forest and hug 10 trees (at least). They need love too!
