We're voting for a better future for ALL of us.

There’s a lot of talk about men going for Trump, but as a father, I simply can’t imagine voting for someone who would take rights away from my daughter and torch the planet she’s going to grow up on.
I bet a lot other guys feel the same.
Media outlets like Fox News have a history of resorting to racist & sexist attacks against VP Kamala Harris. Enough!
Join me and sign the petition to tell Fox News and media outlets: STOP racism and sexism in your Kamala Harris election reporting NOW! sign.moveon.org/petitions/ne…

#NewYork state prosecutors propose charges against #BigOil for "reckless endangerment" for fueling hurricanes and other climate disasters. Endorsements from elected officials across NY state. #HurricaneMilton theguardian.com/us-news/2024…

There is a bill in Congress *right now* that would fund FEMA and resiliency efforts by making Big Oil pay for climate damages.
The Polluters Pay Climate Fund Act would provide at least $15 billion to FEMA to "address climate related disasters." vanhollen.senate.gov/news/pr…

Climate change isn’t a tragedy, it’s a crime.
In the 1970s, Exxon scientists predicted global warming with “shocking accuracy,” but the company went on to spend millions lobbying against climate action.
Now we’re all paying the price.
Another reason to #DIY your #Halloween costumes! Throwaway costumes contain #BPA and other toxins! Plus they're another example of #plasticpollution !

"The fossil fuel industry continues to pocket massive profits and subsidies.
Meanwhile, everyday people bear the costs of climate catastrophe – from rising insurance premiums to lost livelihoods.
Those who shoulder the blame must foot the bill." @antonioguterres

“The plastics industry has known for decades that ... plastics are not designed to be recycled and therefore do not achieve a high recycling rate. Yet industry made every effort to convince the public otherwise while profiting off the planetary crisis it created," said @enckj.

What we must do immediately:
1) End the use of fossil fuels
2) Build massive amounts of solar & wind
3) Electrify everything
4) Localize
5) Conserve
5) Find solutions for the last hard stuff (planes, cement)
6) Stop cutting down forests
