One of my fondest memories with President Carter was joining him at a Habitat for Humanity project in Atlanta. Jimmy, your dedication to public service is an inspiration. Thank you for all that you’ve done for our country in your 99 years.

The awe-inspiring “Blue Marble” photo was taken 50 years ago today, yet each time I see it, it serves as a fresh reminder of our planet’s beauty and fragility. This is humanity’s only home, and we must do our best to protect it.
My earliest lessons on the environment were at my family farm. Learning about the fragile balance of life on this land inspired my work to protect it. This #EarthDay, let us appreciate the natural world around us and renew our commitment to safeguarding humanity’s only home.

The fossil fuel industry’s hold over our political and financial systems blocks ambitious action on the climate crisis at every turn. We can’t afford to put their false solutions ahead of a just transition to clean energy. Learn why in my latest @ted talk. Link can be found in the bio.
The decision at #COP28 to finally recognize that the climate crisis is, at its heart, a fossil fuel crisis is an important milestone. But it is also the bare minimum we need and is long overdue. The influence of petrostates is still evident in the half measures and loopholes included in the final agreement. Fossil fuel interests went all out to control the outcome, but the passionate work of millions of climate activists around the world inspired and motivated delegates from many nations to loosen the industry’s grip. Whether this is a turning point that truly marks the beginning of the end of the fossil fuel era depends on the actions that come next and the mobilization of finance required to achieve them. We must ask ourselves how much longer will the world have wait before all nations summon the political will to overcome these narrow special interests and act on behalf of the future of humanity. It is up to all of us to hold our leaders accountable to their promise to transition away from fossil fuels once and for all.

I was delighted to speak at the #COP27 @unclimatechange #Together4Transparency Opening Ceremony, along w/ Donald Cooper, Riham Refaat, Marianne Karlsen, & Mariana Castaño. We must work together to usher in a new age of radical transparency, or else our climate goals will just be words.
Last year, fossil fuel subsidies doubled, hitting an all-time record of $1 trillion in 2022. At COP26, global leaders pledged to rapidly scale down these subsidies. Now is the time to live up to those promises & shift investments toward climate solutions.
