I’m a scientist who studies how climate change impacts our lives and the places we love.
Most of us are worried, but many feel stuck on what to do. If that's the way you feel, check out this list below!
We can’t fix it alone, but I know we can together. 💚

On Jack Smith deposition, now released:
100% obvious why GOP refused to allow this as open testimony, aired live. It's damning.
Testimony from John Dean or Alex ("wiretaps") Butterfield in Watergate days would have 1/10th the impact if just in print.
What Smith says is far more incriminating.

Talking with people at a holiday gathering here in Toronto last night, and when it came up, most of us nodded that we likely won’t ever visit the United States again.
It’s a weird feeling, and weird to acknowledge in a group.

Last week, Marco Rubio and the State Department revoked visas for five Europeans—including Imran Ahmed, a legal permanent resident in the US married to a US citizen—because they don't like their speech about disinformation. The State Department's justification? This form of speech suppression is necessary to protect free speech. This is merely the latest episode in what will go down as the most anti-free speech, censorial presidential administration in history.
