There are wind turbines in this picture…
Anti-renewable voices will say:

  • they destroy the view (how many can you see here?)

  • they kill whales (disproven by recent research)

  • rescue operations will be hindered (the UK has not had any rescue related issues with their offshore Wind farms).

Check out the shoreline change along the southeast coast of Nantucket.

-Sheep Pond Rd is no longer a through road.

  • Several houses were demolished or moved landward.

With the #ClimateEmergency stronger storms and rising sea level increase the threat of erosion.

@eccentric_econ yes - sorry. Only 20 years.

For many across the Great Lakes and Northeastern US it has been the warmest (or top 3) winters on record.
With the #ClimateEmergency you can see the clear trend - average temperatures have warmed by more than 5°F since 1970!

Tuesday, you’ll see the new way the #ClimateCrisis is being covered. Thanks to the vision of everyone at Yellow Dot Studios!

Two of the Hohonu overland water sensors in Boston showing flooding.
Sunny day #flood events will become more common with the #ClimateCrisis. Multiple high tide flood events in the last 48 hours.

The air mass that brought record warmth across New England was made 2X times more likely because of climate change. This can have devastating consequences in introducing invasive species, on agriculture and on winter sports. #ClimateEmergency #ClimateActionNow

The daily average sea surface temperature literally just went off the chart...😑

Top 10 latest first 1" of #snow in #Boston:
7 out of 10 have occurred since 1994 (records began in 1891.
This year will likely be tied with 16th latest first 1" - one month behind the average. #ClimateCrisis

In the US, for many, 2023 was a top-5 warmest year on record. Globally it was the warmest year on record (warmest in 125,000 years).
Let's make 2024 a year filled with meaningful #ClimateAction! #ClimateCrisis

How it started -> how it’s going…
I guess when you can’t rally more than 10 people at a Walgreens, it’s time to ✌🏻

Karma hit Kayleigh McEnany right after she said Biden was confused when he was off-prompter… Ope!

Gosh darn those climate protesters who shut down (one or two) roads a couple weeks back… 🤬😏

It is important to look at the socioeconomic and environmental justice indicators for the region facing the brunt of #idalia. It’s important to understand that evacuation isn’t easy for everyone. This region has a high number of disabled, low income & generally underserved population.

@benbloodworth they’re national percentiles of low income. So they’re on the 90-100th percentile of low income households.

@benbloodworth correct!

15 billion dollar disasters in 2023. We are outpacing 2020, which totaled the greatest number of billion dollar disasters (22 that year). THIS is why that lack of #climateaction is so costly.

Are you sweating in NYC? This heat is about 4 time more likely because of the #ClimateCrisis. With attribution science we can help illustrate how much of an impact climate change is having on day to day weather.

‼️Looking for help finding a publisher or literary agent! Looking to build off my story and take a deep dive into climate change coverage in the news and our climate literacy (or lack thereof) in the form of a book. Any help/advice would be hugely appreciated! #climatechange #ClimateCrisis

Billion dollar disaster count..

2023 only outpaced by 2017…
Price tag so far: $32.7 B.
Adaptation, mitigation & resilience to #ClimateCrisis is far more cost effective…

Always impressed by how Maddow and her team research each interview meticulously, produce each segment to perfection and come up with such engaging content.

Tonight, I was honored to join her & talk about my journey and the #climatecrisis.
