BREAKING: Complete MAYHEM at @Citibank this morning as climate activists shut down the bank’s HQ for the second day in a row. Lines of employees outside and NYPD everywhere. This is what Citibank can expect if it keeps bankrolling fossil fuels. #CitiDropFossilFuels
BREAKING: We just shut down a gala honoring U.S. Senator Lisa Murkowski. Murkowski is a murderer. She incinerates us to enrich her cronies. As Chevron's top lobbyist gave her an award, we stepped in and stopped the ceremony. Respect us or expect us. 🧵
Your 'moment of doom' for Apr. 17, 2024 ~ Because CO₂ is plant food. "The worldwide surge in wildfires over the past decade is often attributed to the hotter, drier conditions ... the effect of increasing levels of CO₂ on plants may be a bigger factor." news.ucr.edu/articles/2024/…
@MaxRivlinNadler @mkink @erinmdurkin This is exactly why @algore @ClimateReality should NOT have platformed anyone from Adams Administration as some kind of local climate heroes. Begging Big Green to do their homework and stop featuring those actively working against #climateaction.

💥 NEW ANALYSIS: Carbon capture doesn’t work. “Plans to tackle climate change by sucking CO2 from the air and storing it underground are wildly unrealistic.” Wake up. Our plans to tackle climate change with geological carbon storage don't add up newscientist.com/article/242708…
The #NYHEAT act caps utility bills and phases out polluting gas pipelines: ✅saves working NYers money ✅creates jobs ✅fights climate change It definitely also cuts into gas company profits off the rest of us!

So far, every challenge to #LocalLaw97 has lost. This one should too. The @NYCCouncil should put this bill aside and instead protect a world-leading law that slashes emissions, cleans our air, and secures the benefits of leading the energy transition right here in NYC. #greenjobs

IT SEEMS @CarlHeastie runs a corrupt Speakership doing the bidding of @nationalgridNY and @natfuelgas EVEN IF IT BREAKS NYS LAW trashing the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act going against the will of his members. @GovKathyHochul toddies behind. Pass #NYHEAT
An extremely serious threat to NYC's future. If this bill passes, it would gut NYC Local Law 97, taking us back from global leadership on climate/jobs. This bill would lead to: *tens of thousands of jobs lost *millions of tons more pollution *higher utility bills Call your CM!

This is a little thread, composed in the Albany train station, about how I, an introverted biologist who prefers staying home and looking at data, participate in the political process. Today I went to Albany to join legislators and advocates in a letter delivery to the governor.
Just a reminder to @CarlHeastie today – New Yorkers want him to get #NYHEAT done in the budget for cleaner air and lower bills. Most of the Assembly is already cosponsoring the bill. Will he side with NYers and the Assembly? Or with the polluters? bit.ly/440RqXy
Pop open the champagne. Pop open the champagne. Pop. Open. The. Champagne. We just concluded our 1-year bday banger in NYC. $70K poured in over the course of the evening. This is insane. This is wild. We will now be positioned to AGONIZE polluters like never before. Buckle up.
New Yorkers, Did you know we are all paying to build new gas pipelines across our state? Please join me in calling on @GovKathyHochul, @NYSenate @AndreaSCousins & @NYSA_Majority @CarlHeastie to stop pipelines & save you money by passing the full #NYHEAT Act in the budget!
Just look up. We gaze into the heavens today and yet refuse to acknowledge - to fully internalize - that our own planet is on the precipice of collapse. The tipping point is near. The feedback loops are imminent. There will be no return. No second chance. (1/16) 🧵
All the reasons @GovKathyHochul and @CarlHeastie should not pass #NYHEAT in the NY State Budget 🧵(1/13)
BREAKING: we just **took over** a gathering of multimillionaires honoring Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan. This actual mass killer has handed $279,000,000,000 to the fossil fuel industry since the Paris Accord was signed. Trash.
#medicareadvantage is a scam and a horror and needs to be stopped.

Citibank bankers seem to be getting the message this morning--your employer is one of the world's biggest funders of climate destruction.
BREAKING: Absolute CHAOS at @Citibank this morning as climate activists shut down one of the world’s biggest financiers of fossil fuels. Thousands of bankers stranded outside. Arrests starting. We’re bringing the crisis to their doorstep.
@Peters_Glen And there are basic thermodynamic reasons why this is true. CCS is wishful thinking (or maybe just PR?) on behalf of fossil fuel interests that flies in the face of physics and chemistry.
UPDATE: Every single door of @Citibank has been blocked. Bankers locked outside can’t get in. This is what happens when your bank kills people across the globe by pouring $333 billion into oil, gas and coal. #CitiDropFossilFuels #ThePeopleVsCiti

A thing that fascinates me is that elected officials are supposed to be accountable to the public and seek public approval, but the Democratic Party seems to revel in periodically and intensely disavowing its own voters. It almost dares them to not vote for them.
Idk call me crazy but it seems to me an “option” would be to let students protest and not arrest them for it.
