Z is helping with 2 upcoming #BookLaunch events with #activist authors - 1 on the role of storytelling for resisting empire and injustice and the other a big picture + on the ground detail account of #GND "from below" organizing.

Both these topics are vital in this moment where culture, communication, and organizing strong grass roots movements is urgent. These #webinar s are a great chance to learn and strategize together!

A key problem why *passenger* #EVs are not enough is b/c the worst emitters of #CO2 are *large* vehicles: 18-wheeled semi's, trains and planes.

There has been almost NO push/support for #EV 18-wheelers or reducing air travel by promoting cross-country #MagLev trains.

During the #Pandemic #shutdown when most all travel by planes, trains & automobiles were halted, there was a noticeable drop in atmospheric CO2 levels. #GND #ClimateChange

The Green New Deal from Below focuses on urgent #ClimateAction through local and regional initiatives, emphasizing public and grassroots efforts.

#GND aims to transition to climate-safe energy, reduce consumption, and address social inequalities by creating green jobs.

Departing from neoliberalism, it advocates for mandatory emissions reductions and public initiatives, aligning with the broader shift towards #activist government policies.

I've been saying for about a year now that I believe #China is belching out CO2 from coal plants while investing heavily in #MagLev bullet trains and #EV cars b/c they are trying to speed up #ClimateChange so they can corner the market on #GreenTech before anyone else has a chance to catch up.

Meanwhile, moron #Republicans are refusing to invest in Green Tech until China stops polluting... causing us to fall further & further behind. #GND youtu.be/Y-yJjIoZ11M?si=R7sJ9B
