Residents of Hilltop Reserve Senior Community reached out to Third Act Colorado for assistance in starting a postcard writing project to Get Out the Vote! They’ve met three weeks in a row to write postcards, and are planning a No Kings Rally at their community.

Aaron Regunberg, @publiccitizen.bsky.social:

"The Massachusetts filings, he said, suggest 'that we have seen just a sliver of the evidence that they actually have that they’ve spent decades knowingly deceiving the public about this crisis. How many more reports are they sitting on?'”

This internal 1988 memo shows that Exxon understood climate action as a threat to its business And it supports the argument that any "climate solutions" Exxon promoted (algae, CCS, etc.) were not serious fixes to the climate change problem fueled by the company's core products

A must read from @insideclimatenews.org, reporting on previously undisclosed docs in a consumer fraud case against Exxon brought by Massachusetts, a case that is deep into discovery 👀

To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever. All for a data center.

On Fridays in Waterville Third Actors gather with these signs. We must defeat Republicans across the board and stop public handouts to Big Oil.

We can stop climate change, if we vote for climate over big business interests! Please vote!

@thirdactorg.bsky.social

Third Act Maine member Dick Thomas shares three of his signs protesting big oil. He's wearing read and posting indoors in a white hallway with some stairs behind him. The signs say:
BIG OIL GETS OUR $$$$$$
WE GET (up arrow) PRICES
HONK TO (down arrow) CLIMATE CHANGE
