I just signed this petition to stop a waterway project in the heart of the world’s largest tropical wetland. Join this fight to pressure the Brazilian government to protect this ecosystem before it's too late: share.eko.org/882246668t?ref…

Loved working with accomplished adult students from four continents. We celebrated cultures. We explored the possibilities of worldviews with diverse elements coming together for healthy people, communities and the planet.

A climate scientist: #Food costs more when crops fail & heat blisters early fruit and late frosts kill the seeds before flowering...#water levels from global heating strand freighters and disrupt the supply chains, still faltering after COVID. Who wants to connect the dots?

Senate Republicans just blocked our Supreme Court ethics bill. Our bill was plain and simple—the highest court in the land must also have the highest standard for ethics, and they must be held accountable if they break Americans’ trust.

Thousands of students have been arrested protesting for Palestine. If this had happened in Cuba or China, the UN would be calling for sanctions against such a repression of free speech, says Manolo De Los Santos @manolo_realengo

Listening to a #RoyalRoads University panel exploring COP and #climate change. Data mentioned included the Keeling Curve, tracking CO2 concentrations.

Just heard amazing presentation/dialogue led by Eriel Deranger. At COP in Dubai she is hearing many techno-fix conversations, which uphold #colonialism when #Indigenous peoples have contributed so much to biodiversity and ecosystem health.

When I was a young adult, I realized I knew almost nothing about #Indigenous and settler histories, cultures and issues. And I had #biases. Fortunately, I set out to learn. A lot. If you are biased or angry and white, consider that path.
