BREAKING: we just fully shut down a fundraiser headlined by U.S. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. Schumer took $283,200 from NextEra. In exchange he greenlit the Mountain Valley Pipeline. This is a death sentence for us. So we shut down his event. And we did not apologize.

We tell it as it is. Approving the Mountain Valley Pipeline is an act of ecocide. Full stop. It would have the climate impact of adding 19,000,000 new passenger vehicles to the road. It would drive 89,000,000 metric tons of climate pollution. Yearly. This is not ok. (2/12)

We need to cut emissions in half this decade to avert catastrophe. Approving brand-new fossil fuel projects in the Year of Our Lord 2023 is madness. Pure madness. Don’t you see? (3/12)

Let’s talk about Schumer’s role in rubberstamping the pipeline. He didn’t speak up when the President put it in the debt ceiling bill. Worse, when Senator Tim Kaine (no radical) filed an amendment to remove the pipeline from the legislation, Schumer voted no. (4/12)

It gets worse. The pipeline would carry methane. Much of it will leak. When methane is burned, it goes into the air as carbon dioxide (bad enough). When it leaks, it enters the atmosphere as pure methane, which is ~80x stronger than CO2 as a greenhouse gas over 20 years. (5/12)

We have a fund explicitly dedicated to making life absolute hell for people in power engaged in - or complicit in - our destruction. We aim to crowdsource $15K so we can turn up the heat to the next level. Chip in here: (7/12)

This is just the warmup. Tomorrow the President of the United States will be in Chicago for a fundraiser with millionaires and billionaires. You can bet we will be there, too. Signup to join us in Chicago tomorrow. (8/12)

We don’t have much time. An ice shelf the size of Antarctica just broke off NYC. The ocean temperatures are very, very literally off the charts. Tipping points are imminent. We are writing to urgently ask you to take direct action in your community. (9/12)

Disruptive direct action is uncomfortable but we MUST create generative, purposeful discomfort to move the needle. Petitions are not enough. Coalition letters are not enough. Phone calls are not enough. We need a peaceful uprising like we've never seen. (10/12)

We are a group that relies on people power. We don’t have lobbyists. We don’t have whiteshoe Beltway consultants. We have our bodies and our spirits and we know how to use them. We cannot do this alone. Signup to join our movement. (11/12)

We aim to ratchet up our intensity to the next level. We will sow CHAOS til we get what we need. Follow along here for live updates about how to plug in. (12/12 END.)

PS to clarify: an iceberg TWICE the size of NYC broke off of Antarctica. This is the SECOND such calamity in as many years. Island nations could drown. Ocean circulation currents could shut down. Coral reefs could disappear. Many already have. This is a five-alarm fire.
