Regenerative practitioners are able to hold multiple and often conflicting ideas as true, and find reconciling routes forwards which evolve conflicing ideas into something wholly new. They span disciplines and boundaries, joining unexpected dots to accelerate new perspectives.

This is me. I confronted Manchin because I want to live

More green growing plants means more captured carbon dioxide, which means more water, more production, more biodiversity, more profit. We need more perennials on our land. bit.ly/2FjZVjj #perennials #regenerativeag #regenag #climatechange

"Regenerative agriculture can reverse climate change if we shift our society's focus from degeneration" bit.ly/2ynAPkX

Good stuff here: "All social issues are systemic and must be understood and acted upon that way" bit.ly/2usuqCx #socinn

Thinking wrong about all that carbon in the air. #carbontech #cleantech bit.ly/2IJc1bC

New companies are seeing an opportunity to use salvaged plastics from the ocean to create new products. Talk about a regenerative economy. bit.ly/2FlSfNo

Time to familiarize ourselves with these 12 principles of Environmental Justice and start centering them in everything we do. bit.ly/3fmXaBr

We're on track for warming of more than 2ºC above average, and that makes for a not habitable earth. To make sure we can keep growing food and living comfortably on this planet, we need to make big changes fast. bit.ly/2ULPkIf

Have you tried the En-Roads simulator yet? With this fun tool, you can try out your own climate policies and see what the impact will be on global temperatures for the next 80 years. Super fun & informative, great tool from @climateinteract ! bit.ly/393Jbzj

From direct air capture technologies incubated @ DOE to USDA programs supporting carbon sequestration on farms, federal agencies will play a pivotal role in making it all happen — & importantly, ensuring that equity & justice live at the 💘 of that change: carbon180.org/reports

Massive investments in direct air capture (DAC) technology to remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and sequester it underground are necessary to avert the climate crisis. And the time to do it is now. bit.ly/39thj7t #climateaction #carbonremoval #climatetech

"Historically, the average time to develop a new vaccine was 10 years—far too long for our current emergency. Then the White House & Congress created Operation Warp Speed & started plowing some $18 billion into it." Now it's time for Climate Warp Speed. bit.ly/3pys3ai

Check out Carbon 180's report on the recommendations for the next US administration. Nice bold marching orders for @JoeBiden & @KamalaHarris from @carbon_180 bit.ly/36WyuvZ

Musk is funding a competition for the best solution to draw carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere or the ocean, where it has already accumulated, and safely contain it for at least 100 years #CarbonTech #ClimateAction #SustainableDesign bit.ly/37pibbZ

"the U.S. power grid is not prepared to handle the hotter heat storms, more frigid cold snaps and stronger hurricanes of a changing planet." @Sammy_Roth tells us the truth. lat.ms/2M3ytjm

Today we want to introduce you to Henrietta Moon, the CEO & Co-founder of @CarboCulture, one of the leading producers of biochar, & find out what is so exciting about this innovative #CarbonTech. 🎧 Listen to our newest episode (40 min) at bit.ly/3p2g7wn #biochar

Even if we stop emitting heat-trapping fossil fuel pollutants tomorrow, we'll still warm the earth past our current chaotic 1.1ºC above average global temperatures. That's because CO2 stays in the atmosphere for centuries. Time to talk climate restoration. bit.ly/35SoLat

It's all hands on deck to design a better world — that's why I'm going to #ThePartyProgram from @clmtdesigners. If you are a designer (in any field!) or a creative who who works for climate action, you don't wanna miss this event. Grab your ticket today: bit.ly/3aMduez

DESIGNERS CREATE CULTURE. It’s time to raise the roof. Imagine if every creative you knew was working for climate action, together. There’s no more *moving the needle*, we’re here to blow the speakers. 🎉 bit.ly/3a1kwvg #CDPartyProgram #ClimateDesigners
