Methane is a climate change accelerant. Greenwashing can't change the fact that NO methane infrastructure projects can be completed. #CancelMVP @EquitransMid @EQTCorp @nexteraenergy @ConEdison @altagas @DominionEnergy @RGCResources

New article in @NatureClimate provides additional support for our earlier work (@Rahmstorf et al 2015: nature.com/articles/nclimate…) suggesting climate change-induced slowdown of ocean "conveyer belt" circulation already underway, decades ahead of schedule: washingtonpost.com/climate-e…

This is why you have to be meticulous when scrutizing fossil fuel companies. On one hand, MVP claims >90% of the route is completed, while on another they "proposed alternative water crossing methods for about 70 miles of the route". 70 miles out of 303 total is ~25%...

This week's #IPCCReport cast a somber shadow on our future. But the future is not yet written & the outcome is not inevitable. Right now, we need all hands on deck: talk about #climatechange, lobby your reps, join an env group. Find your niche & jump in. Start here 👇 1/9

While families climb into bed for the night, a cement mixer of grout waits on standby in the park nearby In case yet another sinkhole happens overnight in Exton ….. right where highly explosive ethane and propane flow through 90 year old pipelines repurposed for Mariner East.

The climate crisis is amplified by racism, ableism, classism and sexism. Frontline communities can't afford one more apathetic politician or half hearted bill. We need climate protections now.

Democrats in Congress have drafted a plan to tax major oil and gas companies billions of dollars. They say the biggest climate polluters should pay for the floods, wildfires and other disasters that scientists have linked to the burning of fossil fuels. nyti.ms/3ipGvQI
