And just for fun, here is our 2019 list: #30EarthMonthHeroes
1) One of our #30EarthMonthHeroes is our previous president @brooke2cents. Beyond the leadership she provided us, Brooke trains conservationists on how to design outreach plans that motivate action. Check out her work on sustainable fishing in Mongolia: brooketully.com/making-sustain…
Today a big (really big!) group of climate leaders endorsed @ewarren 🌎 It’s exciting to see such a diverse & visionary group #WithWarren & her plans to defeat the climate crisis! She’s the fighter we need to win a #GreenNewDeal & transition to 100% clean energy 1/
@ewarren For decades the fossil fuel industry—one of the most powerful and dangerous special interests in the world—has put profits over the heath of our communities. Take it from climate warrior @david_turnbull when he says @ewarren is up for the fight ahead! 2/
@ewarren @david_turnbull Trust climate scientists like @DrAndreaDutton & @hormiga & @bobkopp & @j_zelikova when they say @ewarren’s climate plans are what we need to defeat the climate crisis 👩🔬 3/
If you’ve been watching my twitter stream recently, you may have noticed this but today’s a good day to be explicit: As someone who’s worked on the #climate crisis at the international, national and local levels for 15 years, I’m proud to be a climate leader #WithWarren. (🧵) 
I spend my life fighting for climate justice and I’m absolutely convinced that a President @ewarren would work tirelessly to bring the big, structural change we need to address this climate crisis. Here are a few of the many reasons why I’m proud to be #WithWarren:
.@ewarren understands that corruption lies at the center the climate crisis. That’s why she was the first declared Presidential candidate to sign the #NoFossilFuelMoney pledge and is ready to stand up to the out-of-control fossil fuel industry.
After a long dry spell, today we have a new climate plan! It’s another one from @ewarren, and it’s a Blue New Deal for our oceans. Get ready to dig into what’s in this plan with me, in another edition of my climate plan THREADS! 🧵

@ewarren As @ayanaeliza points out, our oceans are on the frontlines of the climate crisis. They have absorbed most of the warming our planet is experiencing, and a lot of the carbon. Our oceans are stressed by ocean acidification + coral bleaching! 2/

@ewarren @ayanaeliza Our oceans can also be a climate solution! To make that happen, we need offshore wind. Right now, we only have 1 plant in the entire country. The plan to "streamline and fast-track permitting for offshore renewable energy” is great. 3/

We need a #GreenNewDeal to fight the climate crisis—and we need a #BlueNewDeal to protect and restore our oceans so they are a part of our climate solution, and so we can rebuild our blue economy. Read my plan for a #BlueNewDeal: elizabethwarren.com/plans/blue-new…
Climate change has pushed our oceans to the brink. By restoring our oceans and rebuilding our blue economy, we can create good, high-paying union jobs, protect a crucial source of food, and fight climate change.
As we transition our economy to 100% clean energy, my administration will prioritize offshore renewable energy. I'll fight to fully restore America's fish stocks—supporting up to 500k additional jobs—and invest in regenerative ocean farming that will help fight climate change.
A 27 year old doctoral candidate from Northwestern University - scientists at Exxon knew 40 years ago fossil fuels would destabilize the planet. Their trade/industry orgs have waged a decades long campaign of lying to public about the science and now it threatens the human race.
Biden signed no fossil fuel money pledge,but "how can Biden be trusted to hold them accountable for crimes against humanity when tomorrow you are holding a high dollar fundraiser hosted by Andrew Goldman a fossil fuel executive"
Biden immediately says he is not. Andrew Goldman provides Canadian gas to parts of Asia as head of Western LNG.
