Earth Day is Monday, April 22! Since 1970, the annual event has brought us together to officially celebrate our home planet and take action to improve and protect the Earth.
If you’d like to explore options to come together with others in your community to celebrate or work in service, check out this handy map of events from earthday.org.

While Earth Day is a great opportunity to inspire collective action, we believe that protecting Earth’s natural resources for future generations requires all hands on deck, every day of the year.
Our ability to eliminate carbon pollution, confront extreme weather, and leave a safer and healthier world for our children and grandchildren depends on just how many of us show up. This Earth Day, the best way to celebrate is by rolling up your sleeves, taking action in your community, and playing your part in the Clean Energy Generation!
Through the Clean Energy Generation movement, we are coming together to create healthier communities and a more secure and sustainable environment. No matter your age, income, zip code, or abilities, you can play a role. You don’t have to have the answers, learning more is a great way to start. Join us, and we’ll share ideas, resources, tools, and practices to show how we can all be part of the transformation, every day of the year.

This Won’t End Well for the Minnesota Shooter
The Trump administration is working hard to protect the ICE shooter in Minnesota, insofar as the entire legitimacy of “border patrol” personnel roaming the streets of cities 1000 miles from the border is at stake.
But they’re going down hard here, based on the video evidence that is available to everyone on Earth.
The murderer of George Floyd is serving 21 years in prison; let’s expect roughly the same here.
And let’s hope that the sentiment of American voters re: ICE accordingly takes a shift.
Unfortunately, this whole legal process is going to take years to come to a conclusion, during which time human rights and rule of law in the United States may have all but vanished.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The following is a statement from Ray Long, President and CEO of ACORE, on Meta’s landmark nuclear energy announcement today.
“ACORE is thrilled to see this major announcement from our member company, Meta, on its agreements with Vistra, Oklo, and TerraPower to unlock up to 6.6 GW of nuclear energy capacity by 2035. As the U.S. faces rapid electricity demand growth, agreements like these demonstrate how private sector leadership can catalyze new energy solutions and reinforce grid reliability for all. These projects will deliver firm, carbon-free electricity while speeding the deployment of advanced reactor technologies, supporting thousands of jobs in the U.S., and fortifying the grid,” said President and CEO Ray Long.
