Seeing reports on Twitter that SB253 passed the California state Assembly (it already passed the state Senate) and will be heading to Gov. Newsom's desk for a signature or veto.

If the governor signs the bill, it will require big corps to publish their greenhouse gas emissions, including scope 3.

Bill text is here: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=202320240SB253

Statements like this tell us that Biden is thinking about climate policy more than anything. Here's hoping we see another big decarbonization measure in the near future.

Three years worth of rain fell in two days in Greece, another manifestation of the intensification of the #climate long predicted by climate scientists. #water risks are among the worst. 💦

Its going past uncomfortable, to deadly, next year, and it is redacted time to build sun and wind like tanks and ships for war. Like we did when we needed to build tanks and ships for war or be destroyed.

We have been lead to the brink by reassurances, it is time to build all thats needed to END CARBON.

End the injections of carnon dioxide, as fast as if for war.

Because we at war, the alarms are screaming.

26 billion trees burned so far in Canada. The Brink.

Japan sank the US fleet at Pearl Harbor.

We built a new fleet, we built it. FDR said, double assembly lines, filled with ships and tanks, we face an existential crisis.

And while fighting a world war on two fronts against two fascist powerhouses, the tanks were built, the ships launched. We won.

Now all THE ALARMS are ringing, we have been reassured to the brink, its here, its bad.

No waiting, all demanding, louder and calmer.
Build it all or we shut it all down.

You know you've made it when you stumble upon your #climate YouTube Short you didn't know existed next to Amy Poehler's.

Hers, by the way, has 62k views, mine 121.

Not 121k. 121. :)

Artists looking to fight back against Oil's War On Life.

Time to imagine, time to fight back, time to clarify and its time to art.

Lets make some beauty.

"Private equity firms are increasingly profiting from cleaning up climate disasters in the US, while failing to better protect workers and often also investing in the fossil fuels that are causing the climate emergency, new research has found."
