NYC right now. Rainfall intensity is increasing as the planet heats as scientists have warned. We are heading for irreversible breakdown as we’ve been warned about for decades

“Global olive oil production is expected to fall to 2.4m tons, less than last year’s harvest and well short of global demand of about 3m tonnes, after drought and heatwaves of more than 40 degrees hit production in Spain.” theguardian.com/world/2023/s…
Europe’s olive oil supply running out after drought – and the odd hailstorm

BIG NEWS: Thanks to the hard work of youth activists across the country, President Biden just announced he’s creating an American Climate Corps. I’ve pushed hard for this. A new climate corps will help create pathways to good-paying green jobs!

Love the climate energy in NYC, but time to pick up the pace New York! Your installed wind+PV+battery capacity is nearly an order of magnitude less than two of your peer states (CA, TX). #NYClimateWeek

While we work for zero emissions at home, we can't ignore the emissions we outsource to other countries. NYS gov't must ensure our procurement dollars are not driving tropical deforestation. I urge @GovKathyHochul to sign the Tropical Deforestation-Free Procurement Act.

Deforestation rates are “headed in the wrong direction” despite international pledges. This is why policies like The New York Tropical Deforestation-Free Procurement Act (S.4859/A.5682) are so important. We need @GovKathyHochul to sign the bill! nytimes.com/2023/06/27/clima…

House Republicans are once again putting politics and polluters over people with legislation today that would prevent @ENERGY from finalizing an energy efficiency standard that would lower energy bills, improve Americans’ health, and cut pollution.

It hit 49C (120F) in Iran. Parts of India are 46C (115F). The Arabian Sea is practically boiling. This is all happening at just 1.3 degrees of warming. How many more extreme weather events before we finally do we need to do to address this crisis? No more delays. #ActOnClimate
