It’s time to stop burning fossil fuels. @RollingStone exposes the toxic greed behind a Canadian oil company exploring for oil in one of the most important places for the wild: the Okavango River Basin in Namibia & Botswana. #SavetheOkavango
“The Okavango Delta is a paradise,” says Namibian climate activist @IMariashikongo. “Why would you want to destroy that?” trib.al/cNOrrzy

Happy to show you the cover of my new book THE HEAT WILL KILL YOU FIRST, coming in July. It's about extreme heat as a force that threatens us all and is reshaping our world, from disease outbreaks to agriculture to how cities are built.

One of the reasons I love writing for @rollingstone is seeing my stories illustrated by the endlessly brilliant @Juhaszillos.
This is one of his best, exactly capturing the mood and character of my story on Manchin.

.@AJentleson had a front-row seat to the last time Mitch McConnell obstructed a Democratic president. Now he's one of the most vocal progressive critics of how the Senate works — and he’s got a warning for his fellow Democrats nym.ag/3muyVEj

"Beating President Trump is just the beginning," says @AJentleson. If Joe Biden wins, "Democrats will be confronted with a more intractable problem: The Republican Party is the party of Donald Trump, and it is not likely to change." nyti.ms/34mVWmv

Book’s done. White supremacists forged the filibuster, turned it into a supermajority threshold and convinced America the Senate was meant to be this way. Now a minority of white conservatives uses it to impose their will on America. Pre-order if you like: analytics.twitter.com/mob_id…

Today’s Republicans have made themselves heirs to a remorseless ideology that sees only the wealth and power that land can produce, and disregards the land’s rightful owners, writes @megankatenelson. So yes, in that way, they're the "party of Lincoln." nyti.ms/2SMQMIK

.@jeffgoodell: "In the long run, the only way to save Venice may be to permanently wall it off from the lagoon. That will kill life in the lagoon and turn the city into a Disneyland-like theme park entirely cut off from the natural world."

Also this from @jeffgoodell, who finds optimism in the unlikely combination of "moral courage and financial panic" driving climate action momentum. + notes "it’s up to us to choose the future we want." Let's make it happen rollingstone.com/politics/po…

"If the climate crisis has taught us anything, it’s that it’s up to us to choose the future we want. I know what I’m fighting for. Do you?"
