Our soon to be president loves harping on Mexico, a country that not only provides an essential form of migrant labor essential for our way of life, soon to be our biggest import county, and now they sent their firemen to help our burning state. ¡Gracias Mexicanas!

My son and I went to Costco and filled the car with non perishables and went to the Pasadena evacuation area. We ended up helping the sheriffs and volunteers unload other cars. We saw organizations dropout of cases of masks and individuals dropping off so much to help. We even met Jose Andrés!

as LA is burning, a swath of the country is recovering from an ice storm, Alabama is preparing for up to 6” of snow and I’m praying for the TX power grid, a reminder:
we don’t need climate action just for future generations, we need it now.
the climate crisis is here, all around us
