@joewynne Thank you for sharing this! Great reminder to all. 🫶

“McKibben: But if we let [powering the whole planet with wind and solar] take anything like 40 years, then the planet we run on sun and wind will be a broken planet. That’s what the climate scientists tell us every day in different ways. So right now is the moment for all of us around the world to seize this opportunity.”

@joewynne One of the climate solutions our city is pushing is “more trees” to reduce CO2! The city of #CambMA has planted so many trees in every available spot in the last several years. There’s also an ordinance that no homeowners can cut a tree without a hearing and a fine. They’re also offering the resident homeowners free trees. I personally love it. I believe the trees are bringing more birds in the city if anything!
