Lucky enough to meet Jane Goodall three times in very different settings. This was the first, hosting her at the Wilson Center in 2003 when she made the case to donors for meeting the diverse needs of communities sharing the same biodiverse ecosystem rather than a species specific approach.

Working with a great new group of students this fall! Having fun at a Teas of the World event, part of the launch of Ohio University's new School of International Studies & Languages. Interesting research in the works: aging & climate resilience, climate & mobility, and environmental peacebuilding.

More on extreme weather events and risk communication in Central Appalachia. Challenging new realities on many fronts not making it easier despite better understanding. Great team of researchers & students engaging with public health & emergency response partners www.ohio.edu/news/2025/09...

Super excited to get Sadie's @sadiebabits.bsky.social new book Hot Takes from @islandpress.bsky.social. So much experience to feed into a guide for covering climate change. I know it will be a great resource for our students learning the ins and outs of science communication as well!

A thrill (and challenge) to keynote Ohio University's Earth Day program. Talked of 2025 losses in personal terms with the Wilson Center & U.S. Global Change Research Program, but spent most of my time on sources of inspiration from students, faculty, staff & community partners near and far.

Terrific to have Danielle Arigoni, author of Climate Resilience for an Aging Nation, beam in to talk about practical responses to the twin trends of aging and warming. Great opportunity for students to ask questions about a neglected area so ripe for collaboration. Advancing our Grey Green Alliance!

Talking Grey Green Alliance grad students Veneranda Gweliwo and Teslima Jallow doing a deep dive on rural to urban migration in West Africa. Key foundation for better understanding the challenges older adult especially women face in a warmer world given gender roles in agriculture.

Big congrats to newly minted Dr. Azmat Khan with PhD from the School of Communication Studies at Ohio University. Outstanding deep dive on climate policy communication in Pakistan. I was lucky to have Azmat twice in class and I've learned so much from him. Will share when research is published
