Don’t think I need to summarize this one. This should be world news right now. This is bad news for everyone.

    I’ve been thinking that we need to create a voting block of people who will vote for climate emergency policies. Similar to how unions have political strength due to advising their members who to vote for, this organization would advise members on who in local elections is the best for positive climate initiatives.

    I think a block of voters is needed because right now climate wasn’t even an issue in the US election. We need to organise so that these policies are a target for politicians looking to obtain votes.

        I figured that something like that must already exist, but I had never heard of it. Probably why they’re not very effective.

        Oh, and thanks for linking them. I’ll check it out and at least sign up for the newsletter.

        Edit nevermind, the newsletter hasn’t had a release since December 2021.

        Go then. There are other elections than these.

        Sorry, re-read The Gunslinger recently.

        I was actually thinking about the Canadian election that is coming up.
