Witnessing Destruction, Feeling the Weight of Inaction As I reflect on the devastation caused by yet another hurricane, it’s hard not to feel a deep sadness and frustration. Homes destroyed, lives upended, and communities left in pieces—yet here in #Florida, our political leaders still refuse to acknowledge the root cause. It’s beyond belief that our Governor has outlawed the use of the words #climatechange, all while the fossil fuel industry continues to thrive. The connection is clear. The storms grow stronger, the floods more destructive, and the suffering greater—yet we pretend it’s all business as usual. I can’t help but ask: how much longer will we let this go on? How many more storms, floods, fires must we endure before we demand real action? In the short term, we can be good neighbors, cleaning up the damage, supporting those in need, and extending our care, but that doesn't solve the underlying problem. We have the power to make things better. The upcoming elections are our chance to choose leaders who will fight for a better future—leaders who understand that protecting our environment is protecting our communities. If it matters to us as #Floridians, this is our moment to speak up, cast our votes, and reject the status quo that props up industries hurting us all. It's time to hold our leaders accountable for the future of our planet, our communities, and our children. Enough with propping up industries that harm our world. Let’s vote for the change we so desperately need. 🌎 #ClimateAction #HurricaneReality #ElectionsMatter #TimeForChange #Helene #climatecrisis #hurricane #flood #insurance
