  1. There's absolutely nothing they can do, except set money aside for re-building, re-locations & logistics.

  2. 350 knows Tulsi has previously introduced legislation to get us entirely OFF Fossil Fuels and will be reintroducing shortly. I hope 350 will endorse it.

  3. Whether GND or another serious all nations legislative plan/proposal for the environment, seems to me, climate justice will come about from a plan, proposal, or deal. With all the trillions big oil makes, they should be required by laws to come up w/alternatives and still make money w/o changing the earths climate.

  4. lol climate justice….no one can even approach the needed aspect of stopping pollution and we are leaping into climate justice. Do you drive? You are guilty give me money.

  5. The only candidate that will be able to fight against big oil is Bernie Sanders with his plan to keep pushing his revolution to his presidency by building activists all over the country who will put pressure on their local politicians

  6. 1. No candidate has a climate plan, they are all bullshitters, because a serious climate plan involves things that their tiny little scientifically ignorant brains could not even fathom (steady-state economy, population reduction, etc.)

    2. A climate plan does not have to be a "climate justice" plan because the laws of physics do not care about who emitted a given molecule of CO2, its properties are all the same. The effect of constantly peddling bullshit about "Climate justice" is to make sure that nothing is done about the climate, whether that is intentional or not. Those who know their history remember that this is exactly how the topic of overpopulation got successfully excised out of the agenda of the so called "environmental" movement back in the 1980s.

  7. There's no "black and brown" coalition. Everyone betrays black people because everybody else USE black people for their own agendas. This leaves black Americans getting the short end of the stick EVERY TIME!.

  8. Everyone needs to plant 🌳 s, hate to say this but it is time the 🌎 s countries make it law that one child per family. Our planet is grossly overpopulated and which is the main reason why we are in Climate Catastrophe mode. Gas powered cars and trucked should be banned ASAP by all countries and fracking should be illegal. Corporations should be held accountable for recycling with prison sentencing if not complied for their CEOs and board members. Our planet is in crisis.

  9. Addressing overconsumption and runaway consumerism must be a part of any plan. This will be difficult, as the American Way is partly founded on them and much pressure will be exerted to push economic growth full tilt.

  10. It was really hot today in Pennsylvania about 95 degrees and possibly hotter tomorrow. Is there anything we can do to stop this appalling heatwave? We need to cool the earth before we all die.

  11. What needs to be done is every progressive who call themselves progressive, needs to back the candidates running against Mitch McConnell in Kentucky for 2020 and get that a hole outOut!
