Working to protect trees and urban forests

Night Thoughts Our cities need to go back to being sponge cities with green oases. Trees are and always will be the best way to do that. 💚☘️🌿🌳🌲🍀💚


Elections attorneys and additional campaign staff to protect our interests in the recount cost money. We can't have our public lands fall under GOP control. Can you make a donation to help the campaign with these significant unanticipated expenses? secure.actblue.com/donate/electup…

Just when you thought it was over: VOLUNTEERS NEEDED in every county over many days STARTING SATURDAY to help monitor the recount process on behalf of the Upthegrove campaign. Training provided. Sign up at the link and we will be in touch. Please share uptg.us/observe




Our @POTUS Joe Biden has been one of the most 🌳-mendous leaders in our nation’s history. From Executive Orders to brokering historic forest wins with the Inflation Reduction Act & Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Biden-Harris administration has catalyzed HUGE progress on private forestland conservation, mature & old growth forests, wildfire resilience, reforestation, urban forests & #TreeEquity, forest products innovation, and so much more. 🙏 will never be enough from us here @AmericanForests and all of the partners now putting these forest solutions into action. @WhiteHouse #JoeBiden #KamalaHarris @johnpodesta @alizaidi46 @BrendaMallory46 #Forests4Climate

On this historic day for our country, we thank @potus Joe Biden and the whole Biden-Harris administration for some of the most consequential policy actions in history to protect and restore our trees and forests. #Forests4Climate 🧵⬇️



The SHADE Act, which I've introduced with @RepRubenGallego, would create federal grants for state/local governments & nonprofits to plant trees in overburdened communities. Read more about how this can address disparities in heat-related illnesses here: watsoncoleman.house.gov/newsroom/press…

It was wonderful to join @AmericanForests at the Capitol this afternoon to discuss how we can keep our communities cooler as extreme heat events become more common, and heat-related illness takes more lives. The solution is as simple as planting trees.

Food is not simply fuel. Food is the summation of Earth’s biomass. Every single life form, including humans, is ultimately an item of food for another being: whether raw, cooked, or disintegrated. We are in a situation where all ecosystems are rapidly vanishing, meaning fewer life forms, which means less food, which in turn means even fewer life forms. This is a self-degenerative process which humans began tens of thousands of years ago, and which has reached nauseating acceleration. We have been rolling downhill for thousands of years, but are now free-falling down a biodiversity cliff so steep that, in geological time, this could be over quite soon, and very abruptly #foodinflation #CostOfLivingCrisis #economics #climatecrisis #climate

The Ice Is Melting The Land Is Flooding The Ocean Is Dying The Trees are Burning The Living Planet Is Unravelling It's happening on our watch. We can't solve this emergency if we keep expanding the problem. #ActOnClimate #Climate #energy #renewables #go100re

Night Thoughts When this photo of US cavalry soldiers posing in front of a tree known as the Grizzly Giant was taken (1900), no one of us were born. Let us preserve it for future generations and continue to write the history of this tree which still stands.💚🌱☘️🌿🌳🌲🍀💚
