Puerto Rico is in a water crisis, as a US board slashes the island's social/infrastructure spend to protect corporate bondholders, and a developer tries to build a $2.5B private city on acres of untouched coastline. As one councilmember explains, much of this exploitation can be traced back to NYC.

Somewhere along the way we lost sight of the fact that when we harm nature, we harm ourselves. We need to return to our roots and protect what we have and rebuild what we have destroyed. Nature is priceless.💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚

Green spaces provide a better urban climate, because the soil is not sealed here. The leaves of plants also help to balance the temperature and improve air quality by absorbing and filtering air pollutants and dust. The plants bind CO2 and contribute to climate protection💚🌳🌲🍀

The benefits of privatization are routinely asserted with great confidence, although rarely with any proof. The evidence suggests that privatization costs us dearly while eroding public control over key parts of our economy—and, with it, our collective power and democratic capacity as a nation.

Diesel fuel just hit $6 a gallon nationally, and $6.50—or even $7 if Mideast supply disruptions worsen—is now a real possibility. That would be devastating for the U.S. economy, driving up trucking, shipping, farming and manufacturing costs, and pushing prices higher on virtually everything we buy.
