“The backlash against women's rights would be just one of several powerful forces creating a harsh and painful climate for women at work. Reagonomics, the recession, and the expansion of a minimum-wage service economy also helped, in no small measure, to slow and even undermine women's momentum in the job market. But the backlash did more than impede women's opportunities for employment, promotions, and better pay. Its spokesmen kept the news of many of these setbacks from women. Not only did the backlash do grievous damage to working women C it did on the sly.” Would BeJobsOpportunityForcePowerfulPayEconomyRightsCreatingNewsClimatePainfulEmploymentDamageJust OneDishesWomens RightsMinimumHarshExpansionPromotionMomentumSetbackRecessionsMinimum WageSlyBacklashWorking ManWorking Women Author:Susan Faludi

“As for climate change, it's by now widely accepted by the scientific community that we have entered a new geological era, the Anthropocene, in which the Earth's climate is being radically modified by human action, creating a very different planet, one that may not be able to sustain organized human life in anything like a form we would want to tolerate.” WantHumansMayDifferentAbleActionEarthFormCommunityPlanetsCreatingClimateClimate ChangeAcceptedErasHuman LifeOrganizedTolerateHuman Actions Author:Noam Chomsky
“That's why we call for a New Deal prototype. Which means we are creating the jobs - nationally funded program but locally controlled - with guidelines to achieve 100% clean renewable energy through wind, water and sun by 2030. Also to create a sustainable food system, since this is a major portion of climate emissions, and also calling for public transportation as well as infrastructure restoration including in that ecosystem restoration.” WellsMeanJobsEnergyWaterDealsSunAchieveWindCallingCreatingMajorsProgramCleanClimateIncludingControlledPortionsInfrastructureRestorationTransportationEmissionsEcosystemsRenewable EnergyGuidelinesPrototypeNew DealPublic Transportation Author:Jill Stein
“Green is not just about renewable energy. It's also about creating a new direction for the whole economy. This requires government to step up, not step back, creating the kinds of mission-oriented public organizations that will enable us to tackle climate change - as ambitious as those that got us to the moon. It also requires the financial sector to be less short-term since we know that short-term finance has distorted incentives and directions in areas like biotechnology.” KnowsKindWholeGovernmentEnergyTermStepsEconomyMoonCreatingAreasOrganizationGreenClimateClimate ChangeFinancialMissionsFinanceAmbitiousIncentivesShort TermStep UpRenewable EnergyNew DirectionsBiotechnology Author:Mariana Mazzucato
