A book that receives an award dedicated to the memory of the incisive and equity-driven Paul Davidoff surely deserves a place high on everyone’s reading list—especially as it engages with justice in a world where justice itself is increasingly under threat.

The media must do a better job of tracing the links between the climate crisis & the many phenomena connected to it—especially where those links aren’t obvious to non-experts. Improved coverage is essential, but by itself it won’t be enough to spur most people to act. That’s the point I was making.

To clarify, I did not mean to suggest that media coverage doesn’t matter. For a poor person, the electricity bill hits closer to home than climate crisis sometimes in the future. We thus need to address the social dimension of the great transition like @kateraworth.bsky.social does with her donut.

This isn’t a criticism, just an observation：“Future-proofing” sounds reassuring, but it assumes we know what the future holds．These days—with so much uncertainty—maybe it’s less about proofing against the future & more about staying adaptable to whatever comes．Empowering communities helps with that.
