This is me at the age of 2 in 2005. Since then about one third of ALL our fossil fuel CO2 emissions have occurred. Over half of our CO2 emissions have taken place since 1990. That sort of gives you an idea of how fast we’re racing in the wrong direction. #FaceTheClimateEmergency

The country is exhausted, but the virus is not. ... It spreads opportunistically wherever people let down their guard and return to more familiar patterns of mobility and socializing. When communities tighten up, by closing bars or requiring masks in public, transmission drops.

Umm, @GovBillLee we need rapid tests in Knox County, 12 day wait is unacceptable and now our tests are shut down as we need a new location. We really need a mask mandate as our ICUs are at 91% capacity. TN is one of the 2 highest states increasing cases. Time to lead.
