On either side are their respective logos. In very large font over the main image it reads "We marched. Next, we organize." Underneath it says Friday, April 29 1PMET.

Breaking good news on #EarthDay: Twitter is banning ads that promote #climate change denial. The platform will be relying on reports from @IPCC_CH to inform its decisions on which ads break the rules by contradicting “scientific consensus”. washingtonpost.com/technolog…

Big #climate news: history was just made in Hawaii when a state judge ruled that a lawsuit seeking damages from major oil and gas companies for their climate #disinformation campaigns can move forward in state court.

350.org claims to be pro-worker, but the writing’s on the wall: US program staff was 50 people in 2019, now dwindled to 9. Read our release in response to @350’s public statements. drive.google.com/file/d/19qp…

If - like me - you sometimes feel a bit lost when you hear climate experts talk about "transformative social change," I have a bit of a theory about why. Heartfelt thoughts from a scientist who worked on the new #ipcc report 🧵

If, in the two years of pandemic response, you found the phrase "I am begging you to care about other people" rattling around your brain: I am as a climate scientist begging you, today, to care about other people. It feels like this report is passing by unnoticed.
👂🏽A great and frank convo w @EJ_Toxicdoc on how communities of color are being hit by climate impacts while our government drags its feet on action.
"In a lot of places, racism is still king. Since it's only effecting Black people, only effecting minorities, it doesn't matter."
I really enjoyed our short conversation. Thank you @tavissmiley

Greg Abbot has officially directed Family and Protective Services to begin investigating all trans children in Texas and prosecuting their parents as child abusers.
He has also instructed all teachers, doctors, and caregivers to begin reporting any trans students they see.

Fossil fuel corporations made a big public show of pledging to follow the Paris Climate Agreement. But, today, experts testified to the Oversight Committee that they lied. Their pledges won't keep global warming under 1.5C, avoiding the worst effects of climate change.
