Our Greenland Fact-Finding Expeditions for July 2025 have been announced. Join us on a once-in-a-lifetime trip to learn about sea level rise from experts, while viewing the melting Greenland ice sheet firsthand. Fill out the contact form for more info: risingseasinstitute.org/greenland-ex...

Some pics from my most recent trip to Iceland and Greenland to teach climate change and sea level rise to political, business, and scientific leaders.

Just had someone knock on the boat. Went to see who it was, and it was a dolphin. My favorite visitors. 🐬

ANONYMOUS speaks -- watch & share! We're in unprecedented danger, and can't afford to "wait and see" www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yjgk...

Billionaires and corporations are the enemy. The idea of keeping the lower classes divided so they don’t unite against the ruling elite has been a fundamental strategy of power throughout recorded history. STOP LETTING IT WORK. We need to unite against them, not each other. youtu.be/trdBXBgwXhM?...

Trump just signed an order creating a sovereign wealth fund. That's how he's gonna channel our money and U.S. assets to himself, his buddies, and his foreign partners. That's it. That's the whole game. Where is the opposition in Congress???

@warren.senate.gov we need you to use cameras and physical bodies. No secrets. Schumer is weak. You, @sanders.senate.gov , @aoc.bsky.social and @jasmineforus.bsky.social along with an honorable mention for my home state dudes @wyden.senate.gov and @jeff-merkley.bsky.social need to band together

This is the best response to RFK Jr that I've seen. www.tiktok.com/t/ZT26pGNFt/

When I hear "drill baby drill", all I hear is: "I don't understand climate change, I don't care about wildlife or ecosystems, it's okay with me if whales die, I'm totally cool with destroying the habitat of deer, bears, wolves, birds, butterflies, and bees."

Congrats to @elianebrum.sumauma.com . Completely agree with her sentiments. I've been trying to get this idea through for a long time. www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/world/enviro...

If you earn under $360,000 per year, your taxes will go UP under Trump’s tax proposal.

Wait, so trump just pardoned all the antifa that stormed the capital Jan 6th? 🤔 It's almost as if they just made up that narrative or something...

Imagine if we truly came to know this ourselves. Imagine if we came to understand ourselves, not as apart from nature observing it, but a part of nature, in fact, nature ourselves together with the rest of the living biome. Imagine the transformation- the awe, the coherence, and even the joy.

Important new study shows that current climate models underestimate the human-caused slowing of the #AMOC (Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation), because they neglect freshwater influx from Greenland melt and other sources. /1 🌊 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Where does everyone think will be the most resilient to climate change and AMOC collapse in the coming decades? Which places are most insulated to the effects? In the U.S. and outside the U.S. I've been researching this but want to check what I could be missing.

Lots of new people joining Bluesky in the clean energy and climate worlds over the last few days. I know there are starter packs, but also why don't people introduce themselves? Reply here to say hi!

For those of you in climate science who know Dr. Robert Corell, he had a birthday this week. Please join me in wishing him happy birthday, and I'll pass on the messages. It's been an honor working with him and learning from him. He's genuinely one of my favorite people on Earth to talk to.
