Wildfires, like the climate crisis, know no boundaries. Filmed yesterday in our orchard in Michigan. Trump blames Canada-but he's closing the labs that study wildfire smoke. These are Climate Wildfires. Elect climate champions. Elect Democrats. @thedemocratsmv.bsky.social

So far this year we've had: the warmest winter on record in the mountain west, a record-shattering heat wave in Europe, once in a thousand year rainfall and flooding texas and forest fire smoke blanketing the mid west and the north east. Feels like something's going on with the climate!

Everyone knows, or should know, that Steyer is the climate candidate. Some people know he is the only candidate to truly stand with trans folks. Few people know that Tom has worked to: - End cash bail - Close immigrant detention centers - Ensure no kid in CA goes hungry He's the real deal.

I'll say this about Governor Newsom and CARB Chair Lauren Sanchez: At least Governor Hochul had to decency to say she wanted to roll back New York's climate laws in public. Here in California we do the same in private and call it climate leadership.

1/x We’re tuning in to California’s @airresources.bsky.social hearing. Today, Newsom’s air regulators are considering rushed changes to the Cap-and-Invest system that would divert BILLIONS from housing, transit, clean water— and send it straight to Big Oil.

This was foreseeable. In 2000, when gasoline prices hit a record, California recommended several steps it could have taken to lessen dependence on foreign oil sources. The state didn't act. Full story here: capitalandmain.com/as-prices-cl...

As Prices Climb, California Imports More Gasoline Made From Russian Oil
The state’s failure to reduce driving and to stockpile fuel led to dependence on sanctioned oil refined elsewhere.

You are, right now, paying Big Oil's $900 annual pollution tax, in the form of higher home insurance, higher health insurance, and higher electric bills for more air conditioning. These costs disproportionately burden the poor and will keep rising as long as the fossil fuel industry exists.

"If state lawmakers needed a sign that their bill boosting oil drilling to appease refineries was ill-advised, they got it last Thursday night in the form of towering flames." CBD's Christina Scaringe wrote a letter to the editor following the recent #ElSegundo refinery incident ➡️ lat.ms/4qhpM3l
