It was so great to meet @revkin.bsky.social in person this spring, after meeting him virtually several years ago to talk about climate data representation. #ShowYourStripes day, June 21st, what do your Warming Stripes look like?
On #showyourstripes day, recalling my Earth Day talk at ⁦‪Marist U‬⁩ in which I called up the @tempestryproject.bsky.social climate knitters! They gifted me this beauty. More on them and @edhawkins.org’s warming stripes here: revkin.substack.com/p/how-imager...

It’s a gray, rainy, basement-flooding day - but working on a batch of color cards always proves oddly soothing.

We will be partnering with the Mid-Hudson Library System and knitters throughout the Hudson Valley to create the biggest Tempestry Collection to date: 130 years of climate data fiber art, to be exhibited throughout the Hudson Valley over the next year. FAQ: www.tempestryproject.com/mid-hudson-l...

Eight years ago this week, the Tempestry Project started on our kitchen table in Anacortes, WA. We didn't have a name for this idea yet, but we knew that we needed to engage with people in an emotional, engaging, non-confrontational way about the cost of ignoring the climate crisis.

You can say, “gravity isn’t real,” but if you step off the cliff, you’re still going down.

And if you convince other people it’s not real, you are responsible for what happens if they make decisions based on the information you withheld.
