What's wrong with us? Pretending something isn't true won't make it go away. Turn to @news.rte.ie @theguardian.com & @aljazeera.com. I get more relief there than from the milky statements by @mark-carney.bsky.social. The truth can galvanize action such as this www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Like I said, I'm so glad we are so rich and can keep funnelling $ to the O&G industry and that we are so big that we can leave a big mess. Let's face it, other countries can't do this tidily as we can. @stevenguilbeault.bsky.social @liberalparty.bsky.social

Total scam: “oil and gas producers and some other large consumer countries have insisted the continued use of fossil fuels will be required to meet global energy needs, bolstered by… Donald Trump’s [likely doomed] fossil fuel push on his return to office.” Listen here www.youtube.com/watch?v=6X5M...

Nearly every panel I spoke on this year ended with the same question: "What gives you hope?"

My friends, that question expired years ago. (If you need receipts, my book Saving Us is literally a 300-page answer.)

The real question is: How are you PRACTICING hope?

Because Greta is right ..
