Climate determines how, when, and where we grow crops â as well as how we allocate water, design infrastructure, plan for risk, and much more.
Climate info isnât optional: itâs necessary. And when itâs changing so quickly, itâs even more vital. Without it, we're driving blindfolded into the future.

Great news! This documentary by Fugue State Films called Cowboy and Preacher was broadcast nationally on PBS World and is now available to watch online for free. The film follows rancher and retired pastor Tri Robinson and explores the space where Christianity and environmentalism meet.

Back in April, my friend Taylor visited. We spent a few days in Wales and Liverpool. While there, we climbed Mt Snowdon.
We parked the car at Pen y Pass, went up the Pyg track and came down the Minersâ track.
It was windy near the summit, but otherwise it was a great day for the climb.
Looking forward to being in the Bay Area May 18-19 to speak at Piedmont Community Church on Sunday & chat with Chris Field at Stanford on Monday.

Who should pay for the climate crisis? A new study names namesâand puts a multi-trillion-dollar price tag on the damage from extreme heat alone.
Good news: A new study offers rigorous evidence to support legal action against major polluters by identifying specific fossil fuel companies responsible for $28 trillion in climate damages.
Not-so-good news: In the U.S., the National Climate Assessment, which provides the essential, localized climate info needed for resilience planning, is being dismantled, with all 400 authors dismissed last week.
What you can do: Itâs student move-out seasonâaka âmountains of stuff headed for landfills.â But it doesnât have to be that way; dozens of campuses are reducing emissions and waste as well as helping local communities through recycling and donation drives.

I've re-written, expanded, and updated my iconic 2018 Twitter thread explaining how we know without a shadow of a doubt that humans are causing climate change.

@dana That would have been a great add to the thread.

Good news for today! The American Geophysical Union and the American Meteorological Society are teaming up to support climate science in the US and fill the vacuum left by the cancellation of the support team and dismissal of the authors of the Sixth National Climate Assessment.
Specifically, they "invite manuscripts for a new, first-of-its-kind special collection focused on climate change in the United States."

What gives me hope? When clean energy alleviates poverty, leaders speak up for justice, and people realize theyâre not alone in caring about climate.
Good news: Pakistan installed 22 GW of solar in 2023âmore than Canada ever has, and more than the UK added in the past five years.
Not-so-good news: The world lost Pope Francis last week. He was a fearless advocate for climate justice, continually reminding us that climate change is a moral issue that hits the most vulnerable first and worst.
What you can do: Two new studies show most people care about climate changeâbut they don't talk about it, because they think others donât. When we speak up, we empower action!

Build solar and wind.
That's the job, don't be distracted.
The job is ending carbon by building the new energy. Don't be distracted.
Climate warming, forest fires, climate storms, tornado clusters, dying on your bed from rhe heat, is carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
Build the new energy, make carbon redundant, un-used, un-needed UNDERGROUND.
DON'T BE DISTRACTED.
BUILD SUN AND WIND.
DO NOT BE DISTRACTED.

If climate justice had a formula, it could be this:
One tenacious lawyer + 2,500 determined senior women = a ruling that reinvents climate accountability
With science, law, and relentless determination, Cordelia Bähr didnât just fight for justiceâshe redefined it.

in reply to Dr. Katharine Hayhoe • • •Wonderfully crafted message and post, hat tipped for clarity, for tone, for reach, and for target audience. Impressive and admirable. No notes, just wishing you the strength, reach and funding to grow your efforts.
As an example to do better its pretty good too. Sheesh.
