The deadly wildfires in Maui are heartbreaking. Our thoughts are with everyone impacted by this climate-fueled tragedy.
If you’d like to support the response + recovery, here is a list of local organizations from @StarAdvertiser that are providing aid:

We can’t responsibly transition our nation to clean energy sources, like offshore wind, without @NOAA. The House approps bill would sink funding for NOAA and harm communities, ecosystems and wildlife. #YesNOAA #CleanOceanEnergy @AppropsDems @SenateApprops
We must ensure our ocean is the home of climate solutions, NOT polluting fossil fuel industries. 🌎
But clean ocean energy projects, like offshore wind, can't happen without @NOAA. 🌊
📢 Join us and call on lawmakers to say #YesNOAA!

See my STATEMENT on the first of its kind #OceanClimateAction Plan. The Biden Administration is reorganizing often siloed agency efforts into a concrete action plan that puts the ocean at the forefront of climate policy where it needs to be. oceanconservancy.org/news/st… via @OurOcean
It was an honor to see @POTUS announce whole of government commitments to my two FAVORITE ways to achieve conservation: wildlife conservation corridors & #OceanClimateAction!!
Team @OurOcean past and present was there in full force to celebrate ocean wins at the Conservation In Action Summit! @amyetrice @ReggieParos @addietime @WBOceans

The IPCC Synthesis Report released today has a clear message: to avoid the worst impacts of climate change, we need to drastically cut emissions: ipcc.ch/report/ar6/syr/
Climate change is the single biggest risk facing our ocean. We need #OceanClimateAction now.

Keep green hydrogen green and don’t let the #fossilfuel lobby convince you we have pollute to advance technologies that can meet our climate goals. Check out my #LTE in @washingtonpost @OurOcean washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
Exxon Mobil’s growth plan relies on increasing virgin plastic production. “They are the biggest single-use plastics producer in the world, but it is still quite a small part of their business. I think they are holding this up as the big hope.” eandt.theiet.org/content/art…

If you want to get out of a hole, first you have to stop digging. #climatechange #GHGs #cleanenergyfuture #oceanclimateaction
@ClimateEnvoy Reminding delegates #OurOcean2023 that we must accelerate the transition to a clean energy future. The extremes of last year could be the best case compared to years ahead if we don’t reduce GHGs polluting our ocean and driving the #climatecrisis #oceanclimateaction

Congratulations to #Panama for expanding its marine protected areas to cover 54% of its EEZ, an example for the world. #OurOcean2023
Powerful kickoff speaker from @geoversity at #OurOcean2023 calling for an end to fossil fuel subsidies and addressing the climate crisis head on to save the ocean! @OurOcean couldn’t agree more! 100% Clean Ocean Energy by 2050 cleanoceanenergy.org

Let's finish the job. Let's take #OceanClimateAction and mitigate climate change once and for all.
By delivering on a clean-energy future, we can responsibly develop offshore wind—all while ensuring the communities where power is generated have access to good jobs. 🤝 #SOTU

America is facing climate disasters. With the IRA, we're rebuilding for the future. Climate change is an environmental justice issue through & through. Low-income communities & communities of color on our coasts bear the brunt of this crisis. We need #OceanClimateAction. #SOTU
