  1. The #NewYork Cancer Foundation just held their annual gala. And the featured honoree was #Trump EPA chief Lee Zeldin.

    The same #LeeZeldin that has rolled back dozens of EPA regulations, including those which address known carcinogens.

    He is LITERALLY promoting cancer.

    How could a Cancer Foundation HONOR this man??

    Luckily, #ClimateDefiance was there to disrupt things. And they filmed it. It's beautiful.

  2. "#ClimateDefiance has drawn the admiration of activists and the ire of government leaders and CEOs. It may be a sign of an appetite among activists for more peaceful but confrontational direct action.

    Most of Climate Defiance’s actions follow the same simple formula executed in Wellesley: go to a fancy event with powerful, important people, loudly and visibly call them out for their fossil fuel ties and then post a video of the action on the internet."

  4. #ClimateDefiance klar strategisch führend im Klimakampf:

    "Wir kennen unsere Ziele & wissen, wie wir mit zerbrechlichen reichen Jungs umgehen. Das sollte ein paar Leute sehr ängstlich machen. Die Aktionen werden jetzt schärfer, größer & effektiver werden. Ihr wurdet gewarnt!"

  5. "New breed of #climate #protesters vows to take fight to ‘cowards’ of #USPolitics

    #ClimateDefiance, trying to make the #ClimateCrisis a top issue in #2024Election, isn’t afraid to anger ‘cowards’ and ‘criminals’.

    A climate protest group backed by a cadre of Hollywood film-makers is preparing to take action against “cowards” and “criminals” of all political stripes as the 2024 election approaches.

    Climate Defiance, which disrupted events featuring a string of #Biden administration officials this year, and targeted Darren Woods, CEO of #ExxonMobil, in December, will consider protesting at events staged by both #Democrats and #Republicans on the #campaign trail after concluding that its “very disruptive” action was bearing fruit.

    In an interview, Michael Greenberg, the group’s co-founder, told the Guardian it will also focus “more and more” on state-level demonstrations designed to deter policymakers from approving #FossilFuel projects.

    Climate Defiance has also interrupted two separate public appearances by the chair of the #FederalReserve, Jerome Powell. It is now recruiting for an organizing director to help coordinate “disruptive, nonviolent direct action to resist fossil fuel #extraction”, according to a job advertisement.

    “If we were a new group asking nicely, we’d be a random no-name group and the White House could just have conversations with groups a hundred times our size who did the same thing,” said Greenberg, 30. “Why would they talk to us?”

    Since demonstrating outside the #WhiteHouse correspondents’ dinner in the spring, its activists have staged protests at events featuring a string of senior federal officials, including the #transportation secretary, Pete #Buttigieg, and the #energy secretary, Jennifer Granholm."

  8. @TurboKitty Climate Defiance are kidding themselves if they think "This huge. This is absolutely monumental." It is just trolling IRL. #Exxon and the other petro-giants will still fuck us over for profit.

  9. @[email protected]: we SWARMED one of the fanciest restaurants in Jackson Hole, the city hosting the world's preeminent gathering of central bankers.

    The 60 top banks have lent $5,500,000,000,000 to fossil fuel companies since the Paris Accord. The Federal Reserve can stop this. They must.

  11. President Biden, who just fast-tracked the Mountain Valley Pipeline, is being honored tonight at the League of Conservation Voters gala in DC as "the most pro-environment president in American history."

  14. Do you want to drive faster off the cliff or keep going at a reasonable speed off the cliff?

    "The Republican Party is definitely much worse than the Democrats, but you know, Biden could fire the fracking lobbyists in his administration, like Special Presidential Coordinator for Global Infrastructure and Energy Security Amos Hochstein and Deputy Secretary of the Interior Tommy Beaudreau, if he really wanted to restore the soul of the nation."

  15. Apparently there’s going to be a #climate action blockading the White House Correspondents Dinner tomorrow. Big opportunity for the Washington press corps to repel the perception that the whole event is a grotesque display of fealty to power! Never too late friends!!
