We need a fossil fuel non-proliferation treaty (FFNPT) See the initiative that Pacific Nations are working on. Councils can be involved.

Encourage councils to endorse the initiative. Scroll down on the cities page to "want your city to do more?" to access a tool kit. There are plenty of printable resources to inform councils.

Stop worrying about mineral shortage. #China is shuttering factories because of lack of demand for #solar #wind #batteries #EVs Instead of lighting cash on fire (#genai #fossilfuels) use that to help folks buy #clean #energy all over the world. We have a LONG way to go before those minerals come up short. Sheesh...

Contrarian #climate assessment from #US #government draws swift pushback
Researchers say #DOE cherry-picks data to downplay threat of #greenhousegases
Department of Energy released its own climate assessment, as part of a campaign by the #US EPA to overturn its landmark endangerment finding from 2009, which found that burning #fossilfuels endangers #publichealth and established #carbondioxide as a #pollutant #EPA could regulate.

This is #greenwashing by #Exxon & #Shell oil companies. The plastic "recycling" primarily gets turned into fuel and then greenhouse gases

Summer Maxwell: Bay Area town turns on recycling project. Resynergi says it can address the plastic waste problem. Neighbors say it's toxic.
