This heatwave, remember to thank Big Oil.
An extreme heatwave with severe intensity and potentially unprecedented duration is about to roast California over the next week. Sacramento is forecasted to see 5 consecutive days above 109°F. The previous record was 3. San Jose is forecasted to see 5 straight days above 100°F, tying the all-time record. Even San Francisco will not be spared from the heatwave, with temperatures potentially climbing into the low 90s on Tuesday and Wednesday in the eastern part of the city. Redding and the hottest parts of the Central Valley could see 7-10 straight days above 110°F. Redding could hit 117°F on Saturday. Death Valley is forecasted to see 7 consecutive days of 127 °F, including a high of 129.6°F next Monday, just shy of the highest temperature ever reliably recorded on Earth.

Big Oil is running a multimillion-dollar campaign to lie to you about gas prices and protect their profits. They could be using that money to reduce prices. They're not on your side. latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

Two nights in a row - we have found out where @Chevron execs are hosting their rich friends in Oakland, and crashed the party. No Fuel For #PalestinianGenocide . We'll see you at the Richmond, CA refinery on Saturday - info here: actionnetwork.org/events/che…

Last night, we chased senior Chevron leadership out of their private dinner in Oakland. Tonight, they think they can hide from us at the Claremont Country Club -- members' only admission. We're out here NOW blocking the entrance to the CCC to say: Stop funding genocide.

We just chased the @Chevron CEO out of his fancy dinner. They are fueling the #Genocide_of_Palestinians and burning our planet. No fuel for genocide!

🆕Report from @SierraClubCA shows 67% of idle wells are owned by @Chevron @AeraEnergyLLC and California Resources Corporation. California communities are paying the price of idle wells while corporations continue to profit act.sierraclub.org/actions/N… #MakePollutersPay
