Can't be at #COP27 either? I'm going to use my time this week to read Frederica Perera's new book on "Children's Health and the Peril of Climate Change" @CCCEHColumbia to learn about the facts & ideas for solutions. Thanks to @capita_social for hosting this interview about it!

[Corey Zimmerman @ZimCorey]

Excited to tune into this today!

As wildfires, hurricanes, and other climate disasters increase, we must pay attention to the unique needs of pregnant people and infants during, and after, these events. Love this idea of looking to the role midwives can play. @EarlyLearnNatn https://t.co/yrWcBGa63C

[Corey Zimmerman @ZimCorey]

Inspired by the leadership of @bterrylong & @hgse talking about how the education sector can be a key lever for climate action! https://t.co/8l5VDhJ1UM

[Corey Zimmerman @ZimCorey]

I had just been wondering if if someone had created this! New resource from @ChildrenNature & @leagueofcities @ federal funding opportunities for connecting children to nature. Wondering now who in Massachusetts might be working on applications?

Really appreciate these actionable ideas about how we can design early education facilities for the challenge of climate change. https://t.co/v5WB8aqlg4 via @edsource

This isn't just about the world we will leave our children, climate change is already effecting young children's development in significant ways today. Excited to listen to Early Years Climate Action Task Force 1st session @ThisIsPlanetEd @capita_social https://t.co/VXtFw3pkc5

When pediatrician Jack Shonkoff speaks, the #ECE field listens. He’s one of the researchers who brought about the brain science revolution in understanding #ChildDevelopment. Now he’s calling for Early Childhood Development “2.0”. More in @EarlyLearnNatn: https://t.co/u43wWHr6B1

[Corey Zimmerman @ZimCorey]

Fantastic opportunity for cities to apply for TA to accelerate strategies that connect young children to nature more equitably. More info here: https://t.co/VwHX0DfFBo @childrennature @leagueofcities

[Corey Zimmerman @ZimCorey]

Feeling inspired by this call to action and the newest scientific concepts! Let's go ECD 2.0!!

Always learn something from reading the work of @FrameWorksInst & @natkendallt. Love the insightful breakdowns of current narratives and reminder of why anchoring on common values matters when communicating for social change. https://t.co/W6rvscvJPm

Love this! Time outside and in nature is beneficial for young children and their caregivers for so many reasons. Innovation = changing the conditions for children and caregivers to thrive!@CharlestownNS @EarlyEd4All

The anger is there. It is palpable. It is growing. And it is justified. https://t.co/GKKRINFL4a

“We deserve more than a hope and prayer that the child care sector will still be standing when our employers call us back to our places of work. Covid-19 has made clear that child care is a collective necessity.” https://t.co/QHAbv5qIqc

[Corey Zimmerman @ZimCorey]

Love this. 20 questions to ask instead of "how are you doing right now?" Asking better questions enables us to connect and listen to each other more deeply. Going to try "what’s giving you hope right now?" at my next team meeting @elizabethw723 @ideas42 @QuartzAtWork @colehoover

[Corey Zimmerman @ZimCorey]

Grounded advice born of experience from entrepreneurs who have been here before. Really recommend reading this now and using it to decide what you'll do next. Thanks for compiling this @mulagostarr /@MulagoFound!

Thanks @qz! This is a great set of resources specifically for parents of infants and toddlers. Really appreciate the focus on the unique questions and considerations of parenting a 0-3 year old right now @HarvardCenter @innatepromise
