It's getting hotter outside but just how hot? Too hot to do even the bare minimum of activity, the stuff we need to do day-to-day. Where's this all leading to? #ThisIsClimateChange

Why are we being forced to pay for grid updates for data centers when we have more than enough power available already? Here's what they don’t want you to know.

The West relies on mountain snowpack for its water supply. But this year, there's hardly any, and the problems are starting to mount. #ThisIsClimateChange

The bromance between Big Tech and Big Oil is only heating up and it's causing climate goals to be thrown to the wayside.

Atlanta was just hit with major flash flooding, but the damage will be anything but brief. With much of the city underwater, recovery could take weeks. Climate change is making flash flooding events more powerful and longer lasting than ever before. #ThisIsClimateChange

Microsoft once had a goal to be carbon negative by 2030. Is their new data center walking away from that promise?

What happens when an El Niño event is supercharged by climate change? We’re about to find out … #ThisIsClimateChange

The war on Iran is wreaking havoc not only on the world's oil and gas prices, but also the price of food. And today's crisis is leading to a far bigger one in the months ahead.

The war on Iran is unleashing more pollution than you might imagine, making the climate crisis even worse than it is. #thisisclimatechange

Can you imagine the pollution created by a million cars running for an entire year? That’s how much pollution the war on Iran produced in just the first two weeks. #ThisIsClimateChange

When the planet warms, shrubs take advantage. Here's why that's a problem. #ThisIsClimateChange

One of the scariest weather disasters is something you’ve probably never heard of, but it could make your life hell. Watch this to see why. #ThisIsClimateChange

The war on Iran is sending the world economy into chaos and oil and gas are to blame once again. While oil executives line their pockets, thousands have died and millions are struggling to bear the cost. Is this the world we want to live in?

If allergies already make you miserable, wait until you see what happens in a thunderstorm. When high voltage lightning and pollen mix, look out! #ThisIsClimateChange

Tens of thousands of acres have already burned because of wildfires in Georgia. Will there be more? #ThisIsClimateChange

Extreme heat, a lack of snowpack and drought conditions across the country are leading to a wildfire season like none other. #ThisIsClimateChange

Do your allergies feel worse than normal? You’re not alone. Allergy season isn’t just longer than ever before … it’s more powerful. Find out why. #ThisIsClimateChange

From March 19th to 23rd, parts of Hawaii received two entire years’ worth of rain in just one week. #ThisIsClimateChange

Google claims they want to operate on 100% carbon-free energy by 2030, yet the company is now investing in a massive methane gas plant in Texas. Watch to see why Google is making a big U-turn on its climate progress. #ThisIsClimateChange

Google is backing a massive fossil fuel project in Texas to power its data center expansion. The data center campus, called “Goodnight,” marks a sharp U-turn from the company’s climate promises. #ThisIsClimateChange

From March 19th to 23rd, 2026, more than 5 feet of rain fell on the north shore of the Hawaiian island of Oahu, completely destroying communities and washing away homes. #ThisIsClimateChange

We all know Phoenix is often hot, but not this hot now, earlier than ever before. It’s over 100ºF and it’s only March. That’s not supposed to be possible. What’s going on? #ThisIsClimateChange

More than 90% of Nebraska is in moderate to extreme drought. It's led to the largest fire in the state's history and one of the top 20 largest fires of the last century. #ThisIsClimateChange

This week the U.S. saw wild temperature swings 25ºF below and above average. There was record snow, rain, winds and heat. These extremes, all in one week, aren't normal. They're a sign of what's to come. #ThisIsClimateChange

Millions of Americans are losing power, but does it need to be that way? Find out how to keep your lights on.

An unusually early heat wave is gripping Los Angeles and much of the Southwest, putting California’s already fragile snowpack, and therefore its water supplies, at risk. #ThisIsClimateChange MAP SOURCE: Climate Central Climate Shift Index® Global Map bit.ly/4siSiSo

We don’t need to repeat history when clean energy is the future.

Why is your electric bill so high? Maybe it’s because you’re footing the bill for AI data centers that run on coal and gas. But there’s a way to power data centers for basically nothing, so why aren’t we doing it? See the easy solution here.

Florida is suffering a horrible drought. It’s making Florida a tinderbox. #ThisIsClimateChange

A federal court ruled that groups in #CancerAlley can proceed with a lawsuit seeking a moratorium on new toxic plants in two majority Black districts. The case argues current land policies are a vestige of slavery and violate the 13th & 14th Amendments earthjustice.org/orangegrove @earthjustice.org

Winters are vanishing quickly, and soon they could be gone for good. So what’s the point in having the Winter Olympics when it’s too hot for snow? #ThisIsClimateChange

Park City is one of America’s best ski resorts. So why is there no snow? #ThisIsClimateChange

Climate change is killing the Olympics and we’re running out of time. #ThisIsClimateChange

Natural disasters aren’t so “natural” any more. See what’s really going on. #ThisIsClimateChange

More than a million Americans lost power this week. But it didn't have to be this way.

Millions of Americans suffered through the most dangerous storm of the year. Why was it so bad? #ThisIsClimateChange

Winterstorm Fern caused massive power outages for over a million Americans … but not for everyone. They were fine. Watch to see who stayed warm and safe.

This Toyota owner used to think of Toyota as a “green” car company, but was shocked when she learned what it's been doing behind the scenes. Now, Toyota's chairman has gone “Full MAGA.” What could possibly be next? Watch this video to find out. #toyota #teamtoyota #letsgoplaces #ev

They were Toyota’s biggest fans ... until they learned the truth about the company. #teamtoyota #toyota #letsgoplaces #ev

The Pacific Northwest is drowning under immense climate-driven rain. The phenomenon is called an “atmospheric river” and it’s making the region’s normal heavy precipitation look like a gentle mist. What does it mean for the future of weather? #ThisIsClimateChange

It may seem that the worst is over for Jamaica following Hurricane Melissa. But the aftermath will be felt for years to come. Find out how the storm will be even deadlier in its wake. #ThisIsClimateChange. Support Jamaica's recovery here: supportjamaica.gov.jm

Do you ever wonder why your #energybill is skyrocketing? You’re not alone. Energy costs are one of the biggest issues facing Americans today, but does it have to be? See the cause and solution to America’s energy crisis.

Why was Hurricane Melissa so powerful? And did climate change play a role? Renowned climate scientist @katharinehayhoe.com separates fact from fiction. #ThisIsClimateChange

Meteorologists have never seen a storm like this. It took under 2 days for Melissa to grow from a tropical storm to one of the largest Atlantic hurricanes of all time. How did this even happen? Watch this to see how climate change is supercharging hurricanes. #ThisisClimateChange

Megafires used to be rare, but now it seems like there’s a new one every day. Even worse, they are showing up and burning down places we never thought possible. So what’s really going on? Is climate change to blame? Watch this to find out more. #ThisIsClimateChange

When this 25-year-old suddenly passed away, his family was horrified and confused, but it turns out his death was entirely preventable. Roendy Granillo died of heat stroke while at work, and it’s a massive problem affecting workers across the United States. #ThisIsClimateChange

A 30-foot wall of water hit Texas, killing over 100 people, including children. How likely is this kind of flood to happen where you live? The answer can be explained by rolling the dice. Except these days, the game is getting more rigged. #climatecrisis #100yearflood #texasfloods #climatedisaster

The land of former slave plantations now houses 200 petrochemical plants that poison the air between Baton Rouge and #NewOrleans. What could a #tourism board possibly say to justify this? This imaginary postcard gives one answer. Sign up for alerts from RISE St. James: bit.ly/3GpPLTX.

Heat wreaks way more havoc on your body than you might realize. This is climate change.

When it gets too hot to play sports, you know something is seriously wrong. This is climate change.

The #petrochemicalindustry came to Mossville, and Mossville paid the price. But two longtime friends are not going to let spills, explosions, or cancer stop them from fighting to protect the rest of their Southwest Louisiana home. Go to bit.ly/3HSNFw3 to learn more.

Communities in #CancerAlley are trying to preserve the history of their ancestors who were enslaved at the Orange Grove Plantation. But first they need to take down the #pollutingindustry that now wants to build on the land. Go to earthjustice.org/orangegrove to take action now! @earthjustice.org

When #JohnsHopkins scientists drove their air testing van to #CancerAlley they didn’t have a lot of pre-existing studies to compare to. And the #petrochemicalindustry self-reports to the EPA. What they found astonished them. What does it mean for the people there? Go to bit.ly/3STi1AP to learn more.

Louisiana has some of the highest rates of #lowbirthweight, #pretermbirth, and #infantmortality in the nation. Black mothers and their children fare the worst. So what's going on? Go to www.beyondpetrochemicals.org/mothers to learn more. @heathermcteertoney.bsky.social #petrochemicalindustry
