The agrochemical and petrochemical industries dump chemicals in the water all the time, and in this case killing ~800k fish.
Meanwhile, scientists have a hard time getting permits to put a little alkalinity in the water to research CO₂ removal (CDR).

I think going after Jews for things around the crucifixion points up so many of the weakness of tourist Christianity. 1) It's lazy and a way to avoid imperial critique 2) Jesus comes off as exceptional when it was really written as a form of solidarity--for other Jews!!! 3) And JESUS WAS A JEW!!

All that makes me read the piece with the eyes of . . . yeah, but he is approaching this issue with a ton of cultural overlays that already have him biased against activism. For example, is Greta an activist? Not made a powerful difference? Or is she only an activist when we identify with her?

I hear that. But I operate in the church which already has a bias against activism (don't do political; averse to confrontation) & dealing with a media that regularly de-platforms progressive activism in favor of State messages. Plus, ffi is invested in making us believe that activism doesn't work.

Problem is that leading studies have shown that civil disobedience doesn't work until it does. Told that divestment would not work in South Africa and that it wasn't working. Then it did. Same in East Germany. Same with civil rights. The revolution will not be televised is part of the problem.

@theradr.bsky.social Hi Rabbi Ruttenberg, As promised from the Book of Faces. I saved the document to my Google Drive. drive.google.com/file/d/1CH9r.... I remember the essay for the anthology being tighter. But love “play” (not unlike Sabbath) as an antidote to empire.

It is really frustrating to hear people call "doomers" those who see, in the scientific evidence a trajectory that does not predict human survival. Do the "doomers" then have license to call "romantics" those who still tout hope? Don't we have to do this together recognizing science can know both?

www.sierraclub.org/sierra/2024-... Great article from the Sierra Club which shows the outright lies, disinformation, and campaign to stop wind and solar. The faith community needs to get more hearty with a response.

I just don't know how we ever get back to working across the aisle. It seems absolutely stupid to give over trust to those who want to fundamentally cause harm and take away rights.
