Today we lost of the most truly soul-beautiful people I've ever met, Miranda Harris. The faith-based conservation organization @arochaint she co-founded with her husband Peter has been my spiritual home for the last decade. arocha.org/en/people/mira…
@arochaint .@arochaint also lost their dedicated director, Chris Naylor, and his wife Susanna. arocha.org/en/people/chri…
@arochaint The accident that took their life left Miranda's husband Peter and the driver in the hospital. If you are able, your prayers for them, their family, and the @arochaint organization in the wake of this horrific accident would be greatly appreciated. arocha.org/en/press-state…
@arochaint If you support faith, climate, and conservation, please consider a donation to @arochaint projects - clean water, fruit trees, and more - in Miranda and Peter, Chris and Susanna's names. shop.arocha.org

This week I'm heading to Iowa for another carbon-minimising bundle of events! It won't quite break the record set by Alaska this past Sept (30 events in 6 days) but it does make every hour count. I'll be in Cedar Falls on Thurs, Dubuque on Fri, Cedar Rapids on Sat. Details below:
Thurs 7pm I'll be speaking at @northerniowa in Cedar Falls on "Climate change and faith: Why facts are not enough" guides.lib.uni.edu/leopold-lectur…
@northerniowa Fri 12.15pm I'll be giving the lunchtime keynote address at the "Growing Sustainable Communities" conference hosted by @CityOfDubuque cityofdubuque.org/1079/Growing-S…

As you may have heard, my non-Cdn friends, the Liberal government returned to power last night but with a minority rather than a majority. What does that mean? The two best articles and explanations I read today come from a woman's magazine + the CBC kid's section! Here they are:
A million kids across Canada took part in a mock vote. Their results were notably different to those of the adults, but both resulted in a Liberal minority government. What does that mean? CBC explains: cbc.ca/kidsnews/post/…
Last night, Canada elected 98 female MPs including our @CanadianGreens leader @ElizabethMay and our minister of environment and climate @cathmckenna. Five top takeaways here: chatelaine.com/living/canadia…

My fellow Canadians - when it comes to climate change, one of the most important things each of us 18+ can do is VOTE, and our election is TOMORROW. If you have any q's or doubts, pls use the resources in this thread to inform your strategic vote. Onward! #canpoli #ClimateAction
🇨🇦 is uniquely vulnerable to climate impacts. From sea level rise that threatens coastal cities to bigger wildfires, more intense floods + thawing permafrost, we're all affected. And our cumulative carbon ems? We're the 9th biggest emitter in the WORLD.
But one party couldn't care less: the @CPC_HQ. Their climate plan has all the right words in it and it looks very nice. But when you get down to brass tacks, as @MarkJaccard shows here, their plan will actually INCREASE emissions rather than decrease them. policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/augu…

Yovanovich believes she was unjustly fired despite the fact that she was an Obama holdover,was speaking out agst @POTUS Trump & she was colluding with the DNC & Hillary Campaign to undermine the US presidential election. POTUS CAN CHOOSE WHOMEVER HE WANTS & DOESNT IN HIS CABINET
@POTUS ..John Solomon told Lou Dobbs about the fired ambassador’s links to a radical Soros grp operating in Ukraine. On March 20th Solomon published his interview with Ukrainian Prosecutor General Yuriy Lutsenko alleging Yovanovitch gave him a “do not prosecute list,” back in 2016...
..According to Redstate – Lutsenko told Solomon that in April 2016, Ukraine’s Prosecutor General’s office was investigating a nonprofit called the Anti-Corruption Action Centre (AntAC). The concern was that $4.4 million the U.S. had sent to help fight corruption in Ukraine had..

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

So, the past few weeks has seen a growing public awareness in the UK of how the far-right, especially the religious far-right, in the US likes to operate, and likes to use willing, if witless, pawns to do their bidding.

The name that's been making the headlines recently...

1/n
is The #Heritage #Foundation. But what, exactly, does The Heritage Foundation espouse? What is it's driving ideological foci?

And the answer to that, if you care one iota for women, or for LGBTQI+ people, is grim to say the least.

This is an organisation that states:

On SOGI (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity Laws):

"SOGI laws are about forcing all Americans to embrace—and live out—certain beliefs about human sexuality. They are not about protecting the freedom of people to live as LGBT, but about coercing everyone else to...

Beautiful
(A microburst Twitter essay--to be finished before I'm done with my cough drop)

I just had an epiphany: #beautiful has become my new favorite word. That may seem strange given my circumstances. In June 2017 I was diagnosed with incurable stage IV #lungcancer.
I naively thought that maybe my lifetime of being a health and fitness junkie would insulate me from such a medical fate. Wrong. And So here I am, fifty-one years old and not sure how much time I have left on earth. I know I could, or maybe should, feel angry, cheated, jaded.
But I don't. I have this epiphany that my new favorite word is beautiful and I'm not sure why. There is nothing beautiful about what I've gone through since my diagnosis--lots of physical and emotional distress to be sure. But yet, I keep find

#EuropeanParliament is questioning #Zuckerberg about #Facebook. I hope they ask about the following events. ❓👇 Thread on #Russian #oligarchs investments. @WendySiegelman @dcpoll @grantstern @patrickLSimpson @TrickFreee @J_amesp
1. Zuckerberg and Milner are good friends. Zuckerberg attended Milner’s wedding in California late in 2011. They also advise each other on philanthropic ventures. theguardian.com/news/2017/nov/…
2. One of the major investors in Facebook is a Russian company run by two oligarchs close to Putin. In 2009, Digital Sky Technologies (DST Global) was set up by Yuri Milner and Alisher Usmanov.

Today I started #conservation work on the Gjermundbu helmet - sometimes refered to as the only #Viking Helmet. The process will entail disassembly, micro-sandblasting, detailed photos of all parts, X-ray, 3D-scan and a new mounting. Photo: Jessica Leigh McGraw @Kulturhistorisk
The #Gjermundbu helmet presented in this tweet is from a rich equestrian grave from the second half of the 10th century - a cremation burial that involved destruction/'killing' of the weapons. C27317 @Kulturhistorisk
