Yesterday, some of our SR members joined the Rocking Chair sit-in in San Francisco to confront Citibank's bankrolling of the climate crisis.
Citi has more than $200 billion in support for fossil fuel expansion since 2016. Meanwhile we witness record-setting heat waves, wildfires, and floods ravage communities around the world.
Over 100 seniors belonging to Third Act , 1000 Grandmothers, and allied climate action groups staged the sit-in in solidarity with #SummerOfHeat in New York🔥
Dude, you misspelled “cars”.

The IPCC says* it’s unequivocal that humans are responsible for global heating and our GHG emissions are responsible for 100% of the recent warming.
Preindustrial atmospheric CO₂ was ~280 ppm and now it’s >420 ppm, so we’re responsible for 33% of what’s in the atmosphere (not 3%).
*When I say “the IPCC says…”, that’s shorthand for “some of the world’s best scientists volunteered years of their time pouring over tons of peer reviewed publications and summarized their conclusions to say…”.
Summer has not officially started yet and the world's largest economy, home of a large base of #ClimateBreakdown deniers is about to experience dangerously hot temperatures.
The United States is one of the largest per capita polluters in the world.
Their own citizens are suffering for the sake of #FossilFuel greed.
Few countries in the world have the kind of power to do something about #ClimateCrisis the way the US does. They must act NOW

Come to one of our Welcome Meetings to learn more about Scientist Rebellion Turtle Island (SRTI). We are the US and Canada contingent of a global movement of scientists and academics uniting against climate failure. We welcome others, regardless of educational background or identification as a scientist, to participate in helping us get more scientists and academics involved in direct actions. At a Welcome Meeting, you can talk to one of our activists, and get your questions answered about the wide variety of options and opportunities to be part of this movement. You can also click here to sign up for a Welcome Meeting hosted by Scientist Rebellion Global. They offer a meeting in English every Monday at 10am PDT/ 11am MDT / 12pm CDT / 1pm EDT (other languages available). Someone from SRTI may or may not be there (we are usually there on the third Monday of each month). Regardless, if you join one of these global sessions, afterward we will put you in touch with someone from SRTI to answer your questions.
🔥 Our planet is on fire, and Wall Street is fueling the flames. But we refuse to stand by and do nothing. Join us for the Summer of Heat—a relentless campaign of joyful, nonviolent direct action to end fossil fuel financing.
