The air over the huge Tanguro Farm is on average 5 degrees Celsius hotter than in the forested reserve that adjoins it. Deforestation creates what one scientists calls “a giant change to the water and energy balance. The climate shifts.” #ClimateCrisis e360.yale.edu/features/amazo…

I’ve cried in front of a big crowd, begging for our lives too. It’s really scary to be real with people, especially lots of people, to let everyone see our pain. Why do they watch us + clap? Show us w their actions how sorry they are! It’s like they’re watching a movie. 🥺

What the queer community brings to the fight for climate justice

Queer and trans people are on the frontlines, and their wisdom is essential to a growing, diverse movement.
