Ok educators, let's continue to get the word out. We need you to text or message any and all teachers you know. Send them the link to our bluesky or send them the info graphic below. What's important is that everyone knows we'll be out in force for educators as educators. #nationalteacherwalkout

Voting & Democracy (SDG 16):
They want to make it harder to vote & take control of the government to weaken international climate cooperation.
Clean Energy & Jobs (SDG 7 & 8):
Project 2025 = No funding for solar & wind, massive tax breaks for oil execs. While the world moves toward clean tech, Trumpβs plan leaves us behind.
Education (SDG 4):
Banning climate science & diversity education means our kids grow up less prepared for the real world.
Healthcare (SDG 3):
Slashing Medicaid, banning reproductive care, & defunding public health programs = More sick people, fewer resources, and less access to care.
Water & Food Security (SDGs 2 & 6):
By cutting climate programs, Project 2025 makes droughts and food shortages worse. Your grocery bill? Itβll skyrocket.
Climate Change (SDG 13):
Trump pulled us out of the Paris Agreement & wants to kill clean energy jobs in favor of coal/oil. Expect worse wildfires, hurricanes, & higher energy bills.
THREAD: Why Trump & Project 2025 Are a Threat to Our Future
Project 2025 is a blueprint for dismantling progress. It will gut climate action, sustainability programs, and global cooperationβmaking life harder for working people. Letβs break it down.
Withdrawing from the Paris Agreement is reckless. "Saving trillions" ignores the far greater costs of inaction: economic collapse, environmental destruction, and human suffering. Climate change demands global action, not shortsighted decisions. History will judge this failure. #ClimateAction
