It’s good to be with you all virtually
We live on a different planet from the one our parents grew up on, says American environmentalist Bill McKibben.
It's kind of like doing a powerful documentary about lung cancer and leaving out the part about the cigarettes ... There's no scientific mystery here: the poles are changing because we're burning so much carbon.
Wiser.org has helped advance the efforts of leaders who are well-known, and those who still deserve wider recognition ... Some names you may recognize include educator and storyteller Simran Sethi, ‘Story of Stuff’ creator Annie Leonard and activist Bill McKibben.
This is terrible, but I’ve forgotten where I was last Earth Day. I fear that was 400 or 500 speeches ago, not to mention a few nights in jail. My memory is starting to fade. My favorite Earth Days have been spent out in the woods in Vermont building trails.
We were inspired by a letter from 350.org founder Bill McKibben announcing the event in which all around the planet people will gather to express their anger and hope about climate change, and then take a photograph of a giant dot representing a local climate impact that will be electronically displayed...

Today’s vote was a temporary victory and there’s no guarantee that it holds for the long run
The reason this fight has been so hard is because of the financial power of the fossil fuel industry, so that’s what we’re going after now. We’ve been playing defense for months, now we’ve got to quickly go on offense ... Going forward, we’ll be working with the huge majorities of Americans who want to ...
These tar sands in Alberta are a big deal
Even though this doesn’t bring new oil in from the tar sands
Even though this doesn't bring new oil in from the tar sands, we stand with our allies across the region who are fighting to keep giant multinational corporations from condemning their lands
we stand with our allies across the region who are fighting to keep giant multinational corporations from condemning their lands. This fight is uniting people, from environmentalists to Tea Partiers, in all kinds of ways
Transcanada's decision to build its pipe from Oklahoma to Texas is a nifty excuse to steal some land by eminent domain.
