Oh my goodness I'm starting to see the most amazing stories of climate actions people took, inspired by @how2saveaplanet podcast. And I'm getting all teary. Dropping a few below. Reply with more!
We may not have been raking in ad revenue, but how great is this! "I think there are worse legacies than a bunch of college students using information gleaned from the show to stop Exxon." – @KendraWrites
🧵/ Spotify canceled @how2saveaplanet, the climate solutions podcast I used to co-host. Spotify invested zero in building the show's audience, then forced us to go exclusive to Spotify, and then cancelled it b/c it didn't build a big enough audience... 😖 hollywoodreporter.com/business/digit…
And they did it in the whackest possible way. With great episodes half finished (that will now never be released) they laid off the whole incredible team – @KendraWrites@waldholz@DAckermanNews Anna Ladd – effective immediately. Hire these rad folks! hollywoodreporter.com/business/digit…

In a devastating blow to the planet, Senator Manchin informed Dem leadership last night that he will not support the climate, justice, and clean energy portions of the legislative package that has been mired in negotiations since December 2021.

Now @POTUS must use executive action and existing regulatory authorities to address the climate crisis. And #OceanClimateAction must be part of the solution.
Ocean-based climate solutions can provide up to 20% of the emissions reductions we need to reach climate goals.
