Some firefighters battling the Palisades fire in LA are reporting that hydrants are coming up dry. Southern California has gotten approximately .1 inches of rain since this past May. We need urgent climate action now. latimes.com/california/story…

Appreciate the heads up on this site but can you update the website for others that don’t use X. Neither the snow team or DPW web sites reflect this info. Both refer to each other and neither has info.
Mayor Muriel Bowser has declared a snow emergency for DC through Tue., Jan. 7. Trash, recycling & food waste collection services will not occur on Mon., Jan. 6. A Snow Emergency Collection Slide will be in effect through Sat., Jan. 11. Visit SNOW.DC.GOV

@MatthewCappucci⁩ - why no mention of fossil fuel induced climate change? It was the hottest year on record. Clear link between hurricanes and rising temps. Seems hard to skip over. washingtonpost.com/weather/2…

Such a dumb assumption that is is or should be about a football team versus actually creating solutions for economic development, our housing and budget crises and the needs of all District residents with amenities that build a better city. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…

JUST IN: NJ State Senator suggests the federal gov. is hiding something so massive involving the drones that they are forced to cover it up in fear of all-out panic from the public. The comments were made by State Sen. Jon Bramnick on NewsNation. "There must be something going on that they can't tell us because they're so fearful of what the public is going to do when they hear what the drones are doing."

Man it’s been a week, and it shows.
Highlights from @COP29_AZ 14 November - #MoveTheMoney to Fossil Free Banks The International Energy Agency, IEA, calculates that investments in clean energy need to triple to $4.5 trillion annually by 2030. We have this money, but we are currently investing it in problems instead of solutions. The world spent $7 trillion subsidizing fossil fuels in 2022 alone. At the same time, pension funds and other institutional investors hold investments in fossil fuels totaling $3.03 trillion. How can we shift these investments from supporting problems to financing solutions in time and at scale? How can banks and other financial institutions rid themselves of oil, coal and gas and offer fossil-free banking? This session builds on the impactful global Move the Money campaign, launched by We Don’t Have Time together with the United Nations Development Programme, UNDP, Exponential Roadmap Initiative, and the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty. Speakers: @DCIvan , Chief Sustainability Officer, Amalgamated Bank Jacco Minnaar, Chief Commercial Officer, Triodos Bank Anderson Lee, Research Associate, World Resources Institute @ErielTD, Executive Director, @Indigenous_ca ‍ Organizers: @WeDontHaveTime Global Alliance for Banking on Values Watch the full session here: app.wedonthavetime.org/posts… or Follow all sessions on: wedonthavetime.org/events/co…

It took me almost 6 hours to go from DC to NY today. At least it will be infrastructure week for the next 200 weeks starting in January. 😥
