@steviedubyu Thank you Steve for your great work! Glad you're happy with my summary :)

[Dr Steve Westlake @steviedubyu]

Check out Kim's substack (and research) - she's a pioneer in the field of low-carbon leading by example... 💫

And thanks, Kim, for a great summary of our article!

[@kimberlynicholas.bsky.social @KA_Nicholas]

Why do leaders fail to lead by example on climate? Two main reasons: support for high-carbon norms, and fear of moral judgments. Read my breakdown of @steviedubyu's new study, + mixed climate emotions and how to be a climate🐧not a🐺:

@steviedubyu Huge congrats Steve on getting this important work out there! Excited for your forthcoming paper too. I hope it will include a figure that summarizes the main findings? It's SO much easier to share widely that way. I could see a "Discourses of delay" style figure working well!

[Dr Steve Westlake @steviedubyu]

Super-happy to share the first paper from my PhD, published in ERSS🧵

We explore how UK politicians view their responsibility to lead by example with low-carbon behaviour (or not)

TLDR: some MPs lead by example on the quiet, but fear being "extreme"

I have just read this again, by @KA_Nicholas.
And it resonates.

Great to discuss my concept the Polluter Elite @NPR show @1a

@MattGoldberg100 It’s hard to know what to do! I’ve been far less active on social overall, but more time on Substack and LinkedIn. It’s a different audience and pace/conversation though - pros and cons. Good luck!!

[@kimberlynicholas.bsky.social @KA_Nicholas]

@MattGoldberg100 @kristiansn89 @YaleClimateComm @YaleEnvironment But I'm happy to see your very cool work!

[@kimberlynicholas.bsky.social @KA_Nicholas]

@MattGoldberg100 @kristiansn89 @YaleClimateComm @YaleEnvironment (Hi Matt! I found that once you (nearly) leave, you can't come back-- I believe low engagement is because the algorithm ensures no one sees your posts, + few people are still here!)

@lolaannamendez Just saw this, sorry to miss you but glad you got the piece out!

@nytdavidbrooks Thank you David for this stirring and provocative essay. Pondering now over front porch coffee and I will return to it and share further.
FYI, your bio at the end of this piece still says “forthcoming” for HOW TO KNOW A PERSON (which I also enjoyed!)
