WATCH: Trump, EPA's Zeldin announce end of scientific basis for U.S. action on climate change The Trump administration on Thursday revoked a scientific finding that long has been the central basis for U.S. action to regulate greenhouse gas emissions and fight climate change, the most aggressiv...

Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate changeβ€”all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.

Act today!

This Valentine's season, I'm showing my love for clean water.

We all want to protect our drinking water and waterways from pollution. Will you join me in acting to stop proposed water protection rollbacks by the Trump admin? app.sosha.ai/s/WEABvswN

It’s time to take action on SB 277 AGAIN. This bill has officially moved to the House, so it’s time to contact your Representative! SB 277 makes IDEM's duty to protect Hoosiers from pollution optional. Tell your House Rep to put people before polluters. https://tinyurl.com/bd87nsfx

Today is World Wetlands Day!

Wetlands are often overlooked and undervalued. However, acre for acre, few places on Earth give back to our water, climate, and wildlife more than wetlands.

Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift.

It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

Artificial wetlands can treat wastewater using natural processes like plants, soil and water flow.

In Costa Rica, a constructed wetland is helping keep polluted water out of rivers and sea.

Backed by UNEP & @thegef.bsky.social, it shows how nature-based solutions can #BeatPollution: bit.ly/4qcZf6C

Trump recalls nearly 30 career diplomats from ambassadorial and embassy posts All of them had taken up their posts in the Biden administration but had survived an initial purge in the early months of Trump’s second term that targeted mainly political appointees.

The Trump administration is recalling nearly 30 career diplomats from ambassadorial and other senior embassy posts as it moves to reshape the U.S. diplomatic posture abroad with personnel deemed fully supportive of President Trump’s β€œAmerica First” priorities. https://to.pbs.org/48QSJMF

Trump Moves to End Gender-Related Care for Minors, Threatening Hospitals That Offer It

Threatening to defund hospitals that provide evidence-based, life-saving gender affirming care is cruel and harmful and will destabilize our nation’s hospitals. Decisions about health care should be made by the individual and their health care provider, not by politicians.

Fix Our Forests in Name Only A new piece of bipartisan legislation would erode safeguards meant to protect trees

Lawmakers have framed the Fix Our Forests Act (FOFA) as a necessary response to disastrous wildfires, but critics argue the bill’s solutions are a mirage. They say it would allow officials to push through large management projects indiscriminately, while limiting avenues for public oversight.

Heidi Stevens: After Trump’s β€˜Quiet, piggy’ moment, we’re done asking why survivors don’t come forward, right? If we’re going to become a nation that truly protects children and women, we have to stop giving a pass to sexual abusers, writes Heidi Stevens.

Great piece on Trump's 'Quiet, piggy' moment. This phrase could be the new shorthand way to explain how abusers silence their victims. Keep quiet or be punished cruelly.
