The series above has no royalty and although they run a marriage bureau, they definitely are not married themselves. But fair enough!

Have you read the Sparks & Bainbridge series by Allison Montclair? One of my favorites.

It took us a while to determine what they were after, but we figured out that at least the first few rounds of them were trying to get control of large Facebook pages. I’m not sure what the latest iteration is after, but obviously it’s nothing good. 😵‍💫

My husband has received dozens of these over the last year and I’ve had a few myself, including one today.

Too close to my everyday concerns, so reading them is stressful — and any scientific errors drive me wild 😄

why let science stand in the way of a good headline?

I read a lot of fiction, upwards of 200 books a year; but most is deliberately irrelevant to climate, so I didn't recommend any others here. If you want another tho - Victoria Goddard!

(In general I strongly dislike cli-fi so I never read or recommend it. Sorry - just a personal preference.)

We also saw massive under-communication in the benefits & accomplishments of carbon pricing in Canada, similar to what happened in the US with the inflation reduction act.

People aren’t going to natively figure out that it’s working & that it’s a good thing. We need to be informed-and we weren’t.

very useful analysis!

I’m not surprised – in Canada, public concern & willingness to vote on climate related issues plummeted after our disastrous wildfire seasons.

I believe what we are seeing is lack of efficacy which is compounded by massive disasters that make people feel even more helpless.

It is not available yet in the US, but I have pre-ordered!

that looks amazing. Adding to my reading list!

Thank you Adam! Talking Climate is multi-media: newsletter, social media accounts on Instagram & Threads, a podcast and several video series ... where I aspire one day to be as accomplished as you :)
