Snagged by my confirmation bias!
Great reminder that everyone - always - needs to check their reflexes when snagged by content that suits their dispositions as much as they check their engagement when trolled. #sustcomm
@ClimateAudit helpfully alerted me to another instance after Hurricane Harvey. More tips for #thrivingonline (really): https://t.co/FQIuBt8YpB
@Revkin This is from a cleverly disguised “satire” account.
Fun to look back at my older #sustcomm talks and see what holds up, and doesn't. Certainly in 2013 the up side of Twitter - and social media more generally - was far clearer than it is today. (It is still there but takes more work to extract!). But this cartoon by Kathy Zhang illustrating a point I've made for 15 yearas still holds up!

Researching creative ways to communicate climate for my media start-up @Izwi_Voices
came across this 👇🏿talk by @Revkin done years ago, but still insightful, with 40 years of prize-winning 🌎 journalism he must know what he is talking about
New communication technologies and trends, and how they can positively (or negatively) influence the human-climate relationship.

It takes a village to sustain the functionality of Twitter, which endures beneath the polluted surface of X. Helping @CostaSamaras helps everyone. #sustcomm Ain’t nothing like the real thing baby: https://t.co/c2E1Iyh9er
A really neat variant on #warmingstripes. Temperature month by month over year by year. #sustcomm Time to do a fresh #showyourstripes webcast building on this one on the evolution of these #climatechange visualizations - and efforts to assess their impact if any, with @ed_hawkins @alxrdk @UlrikePaula @TempestryProj: https://t.co/J8AylJu7E7
It equally stands out when we look at absolute global temperatures over time:
Crowd-gathered biological data is such a boon, both engaging wider communities with the wonder and value of ecosystems and driving new science. This is #sustcomm A 🦎 example: https://t.co/uBPSJHKb1s

This should be of interest to anyone interested in the current online media environment. #sustcomm
I've been making good progress on my book manuscript on belief signaling (The Signaling Mind). For anyone who is interested, I now have uploaded Chapter 1, which offers a substantive introduction to the book. I certainly welcome any feedback as I progress.

Those seeing @x /Twitter as a dead-end street should look back at how this platform, for all its issues, brought together @ed_hawkins and @alxrdk in a leapfrogging #warmingstripes innovation tango that ended up influencing @IPCC_CH graphics and more. #sustcomm #xmatters... https://t.co/J8AylJu7E7 I can't imagine that happening on any other platform, can you?

Halfway in and one of the best Lex chats yet. @harari_yuval: “Democracy is a conversation.” If you flood that zone with artificial humans trust collapses and the rest goes with it. (Co-opted social media are just an appetizer) #sustcomm
Here's my conversation with Yuval Noah Harari (@harari_yuval) about human nature, intelligence, power, war, communism, fascism, origins of human civilization & the dangers of AI. Yuval also responds critically to my conversation with Benjamin Netanyahu. https://t.co/14IbtRwe9I
So long @Columbia and @columbiaclimate. I taught at @columbiajourn as an adjunct in 1989-90 and again in 2003, then developed my #sustcomm initiative through four years focused on climate and sustainability communication impact. Lots of fun ahead! https://t.co/shfoJuuGvc
Get ahead of misinformation if you want to avoid having the truth in a perpetual and futile losing race with culturally-tuned fakery - as Jonathan Swift warned around 1710... https://t.co/VwLhzPKdMd #infodemic #sustcomm #sustainwhat
Since March 2020, ~2.8 million people have popped in through ~400 solution-focused conversations, song & poetry swaps, author & filmmaker interviews, student "friendly takeovers," even a play reading on my #SustainWhat webcast as part of my #sustcomm initiative at @columbiaclimate. But I leave Columbia 6/30. Pondering other homes for it - radio, web.... Ideas welcome! msg or below. https://t.co/5Zn6kuc0gf

I run a #ChatGPT test on my webcast with @evan_greer & @andrei_codrescu. The @OpenAI experiment produces three very different responses to my request to write a country song about Vladimir Putin: https://t.co/u6pTxmphNl #sustcomm #AIforgood (with a bias update from @DavidRozado)
What I learned after drawing 150+ bugs is they're amazing and complicated! Thanks for the opportunity @SimonScarr . Incredible experience. Sharing some of my fav in thread. @ReutersGraphics https://t.co/toZWOOWjhg
"We demonstrate..videoconferencing hampers idea generation because it focuses communicators on a screen, which prompts a narrower cognitive focus. Our results suggest..virtual interaction comes with a cognitive cost for creative idea generation." Same for my @ohyayco office? ⤵️
