Currently in San Francisco — October 9, 2023: Overcast Monday with chance of showers

Plus, on Indigenous Peoples Day, #landback for climate justice

The weather, currently.

Rain possible Monday after midday

Who else is relieved our San Francisco weather is back to the cloudy, cool standard we know how to navigate? Monday will not only be somewhat overcast; there’s a chance of rain from late morning until Tuesday. Highs will be in the mid-60s, and overnight lows will drop to the high 50s.

What you need to know, currently.

One of the best climate strategies is returning stolen land to Indigenous people — this is what climate justice looks like.

This year, in advance of Indigenous Peoples Day, the NDN Collective has launched a Just Transition fund to help build technical capacity for frontline groups to continue the #landback fight.

Indigenous people already protect the vast majority of the world’s biodiversity, with technologies such as prescribed fire and responsible resource harvesting. It’s time for the rest of society to follow their lead.
