The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs β€” including nearly two million children.

The move would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war.

Priorities.

Reaching net zero by 2050 β€˜cheaper for UK than one fossil fuel crisis’ Climate change committee finds move to renewable energy would also bring health, economic and security benefits

Our dependency on fossil fuels makes us vulnerable. Wars across the world are pushing up prices for households in the UK.

Why keep waiting for the next crisis? We need to transition to clean power as fast as we can to protect people and our economy.

Now feels like a good time to remember that Big Oil is the reason why we're still hooked on dirty, dangerous fossil fuels.

The industry's lies have essentially stolen a generation’s worth of time that we could have used to transition to cleaner, safer energy sources.

It’s time for accountability.

Solar power surging in Michigan, Midwest as renewables rapidly gain ground A new report finds that despite Trump administration efforts to push coal and natural gas, renewables are still gaining market share at a β€œblistering” pace β€” especially in Michigan and the Midwest.

β€œ'Michigan is actually going to be one of the leading states for new solar over the next couple of years,' he said, with more than 3,600 new megawatts in the pipeline and scheduled to come online by 2028. That total 'is the largest of any state in MISO.'” #EnergySkyπŸ”ŒπŸ’‘

What a US$ 345 million judgment means for Greenpeace - Greenpeace International A US court has just sided with fossil fuel pipeline giant Energy Transfer and ordered Greenpeace International and Greenpeace entities in the US to pay US$ 345 million.

So let’s be clear: this type of corporate bullying is designed to rob us of our rights and freedoms.Β 

But we will not be silenced.

Trump said the US is doing very well militarily, better than anyone could have dreamed. He said he rebuilt the military in his first term and is using it in his second. The so-called β€œPeace President” has also suggested the US could force regime change in Cuba.
