#OurStoryIsOne we have learned that from our fellow Bahai citizens. Their unspeakable ordeal in the Islamic republic of Iran has become the miror in which we, ordinary Iranian citizens, look at ourselves and see our shortcomings. With magnanimity they tell us #OurStorylsOne , we know why their story has become our story: for we stood as indifferent bystanders when it all started.

One of many pieces of art received for the #ourstoryisone campaign honouring 10 Baha’i women executed 40 years ago on this day. Join us in remembering them and all Iranian women who continue to struggle in the path of equality. #OurStoryIsOne #داستان_ما_یکیست

Great reporting about the impacts of holiday shopping on frontline communities: “‘This is a time when warehouses are really flooded,’ says Joaquin Castillejos, a community organizer for the nonprofit Center for CCAEJ”
Justine Calma@justcalmajourno

Communities near ports and warehouses pay for Americans’ holiday shopping with their air quality and health. Online shopping and broken supply chains during the pandemic have made pollution even worse theverge.com/22800410/black… via @Verge

"We are people too," said south-central #Fresno resident Panfilo Cerrillo. "We do not want all of these factories in our backyards." The actions of @CityofFresno have real impacts on the lives of real people—and they are suffering from its decisions. abc30.com/south-fresno-i…

Decision-making that consults & is led by the community is the most impactful. We must plan toward a process that allows residents to participate in government in more transparent and democratic ways. Join us in the next ECV People’s council meeting. Tomorrow at 5:30pm via zoom

"The climate crisis is an inequality magnifier." Please spend 20 min with this short and incredible doc about the climate gap and these powerful community truth tellers in the Eastern Coachella Valley:
Leadership Counsel@LCJandA

The fight for housing from Juntos Por Un Mejor Oasis is a story of resilience, climate justice, housing, accountability, & community power. This is just the beginning. With community leading, we can eradicate stark inequalities in rural communities in CA. #1103200" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">propublica.org/article/postca…

1/ Decision makers at all levels have lacked political courage to act boldly. The #IPCC report confirms: ✔️ The time for urgent action was yesterday ✔️ The time for false solutions is over ✔️ The time to protect vulnerable communities is past due nytimes.com/2021/08/09/cli…

Despite the dire predictions, hope, unified action, and a collective vision on true justice will be lifesaving. These are not naive or extraneous; they are requisites for learning to live sustainably together and building resilience through the harm already underway.
Emily Cunningham@emahlee

If you read one thread on the IPCC report, read this one: "the report is equal parts depressing and galvanizing. To face something like this, we need courage and solidarity. ...if we believe this report, the next 20-30 years is the most important time of our whole lives."

The @IPCC_CH's report on climate change projections is here. In all projections, worsening impacts and 1.5 degrees is a reality. The dangerous scenario we're living now-and the corrective, collective emission reductions needed-are clearer than ever.
