Climate action has long been associated with preventing things from getting built — and raising the cost of energy in the process. Now, its supporters need to switch gears in a big way #CliimateAction #RenewableEnergy #EnergyTransition https://www.nationalobserver.com/2024/12/10/opinion/climate-activists-mantra-build-energy
Climate activists need a new mantra: Build, baby, build

Unless and until climate policy becomes economic policy, one that reduces costs rather than raising them, it’s unlikely that support for climate action will increase meaningfully. That means climate-concerned progressives have to embrace building — and reducing the obstacles that stand in the way of it — in a way they never have before.

Climate research was used as a #CliimateAction delaying tactic for so long that I'm not sure the climate research community will ever be able to switch over into a direct action mindset to a large extent.

We need to do a better job of highlighting Biden's accomplishments or his opponents are going to win the next election and we can kiss #CliimateAction goodbye. Sometimes in order to get good results they've got to stop letting hope for the perfect get in the way of good progress.
Call it Slow Travel or Low Carbon Birding or any other names you want to think up but this has to be part of the way forward. https://www.discoverwildlife.com/people/opinion/gillian-burke-slow-travel-is-about-taking-your-time-rather-than-packing-things-in/

Lady Chainsaw (roots from #Dakota first peoples) wanted to visit & give support to #OldGrowth #forestdefenders up at ridge camp last July & we got her up the mountain.
