“NPR's Ailsa Chang talks with Anthony Leiserowitz (@ecotone2) with the @YaleClimateComm about what the climate disasters this summer mean for society's perception of climate change.” https://t.co/vcyqxBTMPt

Some good news! Progress is being made - we just need more and faster…

(TLDR I’ve highlighted some key things in the article)

“It’s up to everyone else to demand climate action right now,” Ms. Thomasson said. “Not in a year, not tomorrow, but right now. Actually yesterday.”

For unhoused people in America’s hottest large city, heat waves are a merciless killer https://t.co/M5Vl3mofuR

[Covering Climate Now 🦋 @coveringclimate.org @CoveringClimate]

How media and politicians frame extreme weather shapes how people view climate change.

Let's not call it “the new normal,” says @ecotone2 @YaleClimateComm. “We're on a roller coaster. This is the new abnormal. And it's getting worse.”

Can't believe I left this to the end - if you want to know which group you are in, just take this short test! https://t.co/sGA9DEwRqa

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

On climate change, we often assume people are either believers or deniers.

I don't like either label, because climate change is not a religion.

Instead, I prefer the 6 categories identified by @YaleClimateComm for the US. https://t.co/mxGR45pA65

Great visuals @ClimateTrendsIN!

[Yashwant Deshmukh 🇮🇳 @YRDeshmukh]

Almost 82 per cent of Indians are alarmed or concerned about global warming and change in climate patterns. The next wave of @YaleClimateComm and @CvoterIndia report has many findings worth exploring.

[Rewiring America @rewiringamerica]

This is a big deal, folks. It shows that an electrical appliance is WINNING the race against a fossil-fuel based counterpart. And every time a household chooses to electrify another aspect of their life, we get one step closer to a #RewiredAmerica. ⚡
