Twas the night before No Kings,
When all through the land
All the froggies were stirring,
So everything will go as planned.

The protest signs were made with care,
In hopes that rights and freedoms would be restored everywhere.

States like Alaska, New Hampshire & Connecticut with solar and wind shares of less than 10%, all have an average price of over 20.5¢ compared to 9.9¢ in states like New Mexico 💸

The Trump administration has put forward a plan to roll back rules that require corporations to disclose the amount of greenhouse gases they release. If approved, the change would prevent both the government and the public from knowing the scale of emissions contributing to climate change.
Rise up✊ and shine🌞! Join a Sun Day event near you.

Did you hear the joke about fungus?

You may not like it at first, but it will definitely grow on you.
If you’ve been thinking about going solar, buying an electric vehicle or upgrading your home with cleaner, more affordable energy...Now is the time.

These are the federal clean energy tax credits that are still available!
Wow, that's officially a tough nut to crack!
Gosh, I'd come if I lived nearby! If it helps with ideas to try... We meet at a coffeehouse a couple of times a month. We have also done 'Pints and Purls' at a local brewery. Some folks prefer the evening/weeknight brewery setting to a midday Saturday at the coffeehouse.
Do you have a social knitting meet-up near you? During stressful times, my local group is one of my restorative places. Take care.

The only reason we have thousands of gigawatts of clean energy across the world is because people like us have worked for it. When politicians attack clean power, our movement will keep shining on. 👇🧵
I go to Field's Fabrics. Do you have any of those near you?
Trump has gone too far. Michiganders are ready to move on from dirty, expensive coal.

Way to show up today, Muskegon area!

And I'm looking for an opportunity to say, "Call Bob Loblaw." Unfortunately, I don't want a reason to recommend an attorney.
Summer is just getting started, but #ExtremeWeatherSZN is year-round. Climate pollution is making severe weather more frequent, intense and dangerous, and without critical climate protections, our communities will suffer. app.sosha.ai/s/QP2qUM76

🚨 We need to talk about J.H. Campbell 🚨

This mega-polluter power plant was supposed to stop burning coal on May 31 in the culmination of a carefully executed 3-year plan. But in the final hour, Trump ordered to keep it open. 🫠

Let's get up to speed ⬇️
