So we're clear: Delhi police arrested 21-year-old climate activist #DishaRavi for making minor edits on an utterly benign clicktivist #Toolkit supporting farmers, which it outlandishly claims is linked to a secret terrorist conspiracy + @Google may have helped the cops target her

Must watch. Laying new fossil fuel infrastructure at this stage in the climate crisis is utter folly - and it should be a crime. Support the water protectors trying to stop Line 3.
The next big climate fight is occurring in Minnesota where an Indigenous-led movement is trying to stop the construction of a tar sands pipeline. Congresswoman @IlhanMN has a message for the Biden Administration: #StopLine3.

Stop complaining about “riots.” Riots gave you 8-hour workdays, gay rights, and free speech.

Your Earth Day reminder that we must not go back to normal after this crisis ends. We should not try to prop up oil prices. We should not bail out oil companies. We should accelerate our shift to solar, wind, and other non-fossil fuels.

"I stood in that voting booth, and I looked down and I saw my name on the ballot, and I thought, 'Wow, kiddo, you're not in Oklahoma anymore,'" an emotional Elizabeth Warren says. "For that moment, standing in the booth—I miss my mommy and my daddy." abcn.ws/3cyNwd9

“I grew up in a world where a woman who looks like me, with my kind of skin and my kind of hair, was never considered to be beautiful. I think it is time that that stops today. I want children to look at me and see my face and I want them to see their faces reflected in mine." 👸🏿

Big love to #ScaffoldRebel "When it has not been our planet under attack, it has been people of colour, it has been women, it has been trans people, it has been disabled people, it has been queer people. [...] & we will not stop, until everybody is liberated & free." 🧡✊🏽🧡
“Scaffold man”. We didn’t know his name but he held Trafalgar Square for 6 hours with his eloquence, his chants and his integrity. The science is clear. It’s time for governments to ACT NOW #ClimateEmergency #ExtinctionRebellion #xrlondon
