Remember us? 👋

If you were following along in 2021, we ran a #ClimateChats campaign to encourage people to #TalkClimate for @COP26.

We've now gathered what we learned for @ClimaticChange_ ➡️ https://t.co/elNvAeHV2F

From classrooms to communities, our educator guide and conversation prompts empowered participants to engage in climate dialogues. Experts, scholars, and activists joined forces, offering practical strategies for fruitful discussions. https://t.co/Uq6ebhsvLE

If talking about climate change "politicizes" the weather, so be it. The politics of climate denial and delay affected this summer’s weather, and our current decisions will shape our planet for thousands of years.

[Dr. Josh Ettinger @JoshEttinger]

Why are climate conversations important? How do we empower more people to talk about climate change? What research do we still need?

In an article for @SocialMedia_Soc I reflect on my PhD journey with @JamesPainter61 and offer thoughts on these questions

BREAKING: the White Cliffs of Dover have been illuminated with the UK 'warming stripes' for #ShowYourStripes day!

These stripes represent the UK average temperature from 1884 to 2022 with blue colours for colder years and red colours for hotter years.

Let's go beyond hoping that extreme weather "wakes people up" to #climatechange – if you're experiencing smoke right now, speak with a family member/friend about it (and check that they are staying safe)

Then add your discussion to our climate chats map: https://t.co/98lOZerFtq

BREAKING: @MWCOG has issued a CODE PURPLE for DC area. "The D.C. region has not previously recorded a Code Purple day for fine particle pollution." Code purple means air is unhealthy for all people. Limit time outside and/or wear mask.
