My Climate Education Journey
Big sift of information
The climate change learning curve is steep. So much to learn. So many knowledgeable and inspiring people. So many problems and competing agendas.
In talking to people who know tons more about this topic than me, it became apparent that there are quite a few people also looking to become more aware of climate change issues for their next purpose-driven personal or career adventure.
First Slide Deck
My natural inclination is to organize thoughts and research in slides. Decades of practice is hard to break. In late 2020, I created a set of slides that highlights initial findings and summarizes some points of view to use in future discussions.
Doers in Action
People are doing amazing things to address climate change today: from research scientists to manufacturing planners to corporate idealists. Learning their stories of success, failure, and resilience has been eye opening.
Projects in Progress
People need selling tools to be agents of change. These tools come in different forms: research results, policy changes, financial models, or what-if simulation models. Some exciting projects are underway to enable people to be more effective climate advocates.
