Don’t ever let anyone convince you that transitioning off fossil fuels means going back to Little House on the Prairie lifestyle. There are so many innovations, solutions, healthy ways to meet peoples’ needs. One small example: check out the world’s first solar train in Australia. lnkd.in/gtwaRqix

What does respect really mean?

Indigenous Peoples protect our forests & biodiversity, yet face abuse, exploitation & neglect.

This #WorldIndigenousDay, we demand more than symbolism.

We demand respect.

People in #Gaza, including UNRWA colleagues, are fainting due to severe hunger. They are being starved.

Meanwhile, just a few kilometers away from Gaza supermarkets and shops are loaded with food and other goods.

Lift the siege.

Allow UNRWA to bring in food and medicines.

Harvard hired a researcher to uncover its ties to slavery. He says the results cost him his job: ‘We found too many slaves’ When the extent of the university’s involvement with slavery was unearthed, a scholar tracking descendants of enslaved workers was suddenly fired

@harvard.edu when will you officially acknowledge your ties to slavery, apologize and do the restorative work?

Thank you @theguardian.com for unveiling such troubling story
