“Turning Back the Clocks”

a climate poem

Set in my San Fernando Valley childhood home in November of 1971. Centered around my remarkable mother, radiant in her hopefulness.

Preaching to The Choir, by Rebecca Solnit

Goodness, every time I find some piece by @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social that I have not previously read, I get to have that amazing experience all over again -- appreciating the prose, the insights, the deep and abiding humanity.

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social: Based on the group chat texts, it's not clear that the Commander-in-Chief made the final decision.

"The core thing that was supposed to happen in these decision-making procedures clearly didn't happen," says Hayes.

Text poster with two sections. On the left, "HANDS OFF!" with a list including Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. On the right, "WE MUST STOP TRUMP'S ILLEGAL, BILLIONAIRE POWER GRAB. SATURDAY APRIL 5." The background is textured like aged paper, and the text appears as if stenciled in black ink.

We’re building the largest one-day mobilization in years.

Nothing stops authoritarians in their tracks like organized people power — and we’re organizing it in communities throughout the country.

Global economy could face 50% loss in GDP between 2070 and 2090 from climate shocks, say actuaries Exclusive: Report by risk experts says previous assessments ignored severe effects of climate crisis

You know who understands risk? Actuaries. And guess what they're saying: "... the plausible worst-case hit to global economies would be 50% in the two decades before 2090."

I'm bad at budgeting, can someone tell me whether 50% is a lot?

This is the shape of the crisis: to prevent cataclysmic climate breakdown, we have to RADICALLY cut carbon pollution at a completely unprecedented rate. All prior climate policy has failed.

Any university without a massive, cross-disciplinary program to inform this task is part of the problem.

What Is the Color of the Sky Tonight? If you think the climate movement will save you, you are mistaken.

What is the color of the sky tonight?

It is the color of denial…
