Deciding what one wants to do and be in life has often been hard for young people in high school and college. Now with a global pandemic in a time of climate change, it is more difficult than ever to answer the questions, What do you want to be when you grow up? Many graduation speeches exhort us to Pursue our Passions, and many a parent worry that such a pursuit will lead their child into a jobless future. Flannery Winchester was not put off by the concerns of others. She wanted to study English literature. She had no idea her skills and passion would lead her to taking on a national role in communicating to people about climate change. As Citizens Climate Lobby's Communications Director, Flannery Winchester trains and supports volunteers to publish written pieces in local media, appear on TV and radio. She also pitches national media, manages and edits the CCL blog, and keeps our volunteers informed and inspired through social media and regular newsletters. Flannery came to CCL after content and marketing roles at an email marketing agency, an international software company, and a local women's magazine in Atlanta. She began volunteering with CCL in 2015 and joined the communications department in 2017. When she's not working, she's probably gardening, reading, or spending time outside with her dogs. The Art House Krista Hiser is back with another instalment of the Ultimate Cli-Fi Book Club. This time she looks at a book that hits very close to home. She dives into the Pandemic and climate change in Emily St. John Mandel's novel, Stations Eleven. You can hear standalone versions of The Art House at Artists and Climate Change Good News Report Dr. Anthony Leiserowitz, and this is Climate Connections shares good news. Electric trucks could save lives: Pollution from diesel trucks is associated with health problems, and it disproportionately harms low-income people and communities of color.

In this episode of The Creative Climate, Perry's CCP colleague Kurt Langer joins as a guest host and interviews two participants from Climate Live Japan. Singer & track maker extraordinaire ermhoi, and Hanae Takahashi, one of the young organizers of the event, join the podcast to discuss climate change, music and how it all connects. Climate Live is a youth organized international concert series that took place online Saturday April 24th, 2021. Concerts were organized in 30 locations around the globe to raise awareness about climate change. The Japan team produced one of the largest of the events, broadcasting it live on YouTube from LOFT in Shinjuku. Climate Live International is planning more concerts around the world for October 16th, 2021. Climate Control Projects has been honored to be serving in an advisory role to the international team since 2020.ermhoi is an Irish Japanese track maker and singer. She creates her own world and expresses it through a variety of languages and musical genres including pop, ethno, dance and improvisation. Her first album Junior Refugee was released in 2015 through the Salvaged Tapes record label. ermhoi, although essentially a solo performer, is also a member of Black Boboi and Millennium Parade. Her latest release Ep, “Thunder” is available on all streaming services.ermhoi fans will love hearing her give (possibly) her first interview in English, though it honestly sounds like she's done it a thousand times before. She discusses her creative process, her connection to climate change, and also allows us to share the title track from her most recent EP “E” as our “Hottest on Record.”http://ermhoi.comInstagram: @ermhoiTwitter: @DooonermhoiSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3kabIShRaQYKg8afAZ1kIcBandcamp: https://ermhoi.bandcamp.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFIfL3l7sKCRQKk4_HINvvAHanae, who in addition to being the country representative of ClimateLive Japan, is also a member of Fridays For Future Tokyo and studies art and media communications at university.

On this episode of The Federalist Radio Hour, filmmakers Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney join Culture Editor Emily Jashinsky to talk about their new movie “My Son Hunter” and how big tech, the media, and political elites covered up the Biden family’s corruption right before the 2020 presidential election.
Finally hitting the double digits, Episode 10 finds the dynamic duo of Perry Serpa and Kirsten Spruch, after a spell of yapping about Seinfeld, Sondheim and Succession, getting into it with documentary filmmaker, Claudia Rinke. Rinke recently completed work on a powerful film entitled NOW, for which she was screenwriter and creator, that explores the more human side of the Climate Movement with focus not only on its impact, but also the real people behind it all, their personal challenges and struggles with anxiety as they work to make the planet a more livable, breathable place for all of us. In addition to the palpable figures in youth movement, the film features interviews with filmmaker, Wim Wenders, musician/activist, Patti Smith and Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus, and others. Read Claudia's recent piece in Innovators, “What's It Like Being A Young Activist,” here. Our Hottest On Record is a brand new artist named Emma Negrete. Recently featured in American Songwriter, Emma shares her spankin' new track, "Lost In Translation" with the Creative Climate. As mentioned in said publication, "“Lost in Translation,” a song Negrete says set her free, also marks a new beginning for the artist, who has released a handful of singles since 2018. Through her experience and writing the song, she also learned how changing one's mindset can transform everything." One listen will prove the presence of a special artist who we'll be hearing much more from.
For Episode 9 of The Creative Climate Podcast, join host Perry Serpa for some brief, New Year bloodletting on the State of the Union followed by an interview with celebrated visual artist, Nicholas Papadakis- a real treat for listeners who are fellow artists and photographers as Nick gets granular about his processes, recounting his attempts to paint bubbles, utilize a musician's brain scan as a springboard for a series and immortalize a road trip involving a friend with a penchant for wrapping herself around trees while naked. If that doesn't make you curious, I dunno what will. Seriously though, Papadakis makes for a fascinating featured guest and a longstanding champion of creative response. Then, hear Rebecca Hart's gorgeous, "Horses," our Hottest On Record for this episode. The song was one of 9 tracks on her 2018 album, The Magician's Daughter. Rebecca is a Creative Climate alumnus having been featured on our very first episode commenting on her pandemic experience. She is a prolific singer/songwriter/playwright/actress/tarot card reader.

Perry Serpa and Kirsten Spruch co-host Episode 3 of the Creative Climate, Tighten The Beltway, an hour long exploration of the climate discussion within U.S. political forum. Perry interviews Nathaniel Rich, author of Losing Earth, best selling chronicle of the beltway conversation from the seventies to present day, and John Rivera, energy expert/negotiator and veteran of the Federal Energy Administration and the Department of Energy in the 70s and 80s. Both guests shed ample light on the tug o'war around climate and give us some fresh insights as to where the conversation needs to go. Hottest On Record musical guest is critically acclaimed Austin-based singer/songwriter, Rod Melancon who offers us an acoustic version of "Corpus Christi Carwash," his tribute to the late, great Freddie Fender.
Creative Climate host Perry Serpa engages in an epic mind meld with author Antonino D'Ambrosio, responsible for the veritable bible of creative response, Let Fury Have The Hour (and its documentary compendium). D'Ambrosio name drops the printing press, futbol en Mexico and his buddy, artist Shepard Fairey. Musicians Ben Lee, Rebecca Hart, Eli Musser and David Mosey answer the quarantine edition of our One Questionnaire. Producer River Hooks gives us “Mountain,” a brand new track for our Hottest On Record segment. Par Neiburger joins for his Audio Atlas taking cues from his CCP Playlist, “West African Griots And Legends” before he reunites with Dakar-based pal, Hannah Armstrong, Senior Consulting Analyst at the International Crisis Group to talk climate in the Sahel region of Africa.
Max Boykoff is the Director of the Center for Science and Technology Policy Research, which is part of the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder. He also is an Associate Professor in the Environmental Studies program. Through a sustained assessment of research and experimentation into Creative (Climate) Communications, this handbook provides guidance for what works, where, when, why and under what conditions.
Conversations about climate change can be mind-numbing, but movies and TV shows are some examples of looking at the issue creatively, says a CU Boulder professor. Then, a Colorado woman swims the English Channel not once, not twice, not three, but four times. Even amid jellyfish bites. And, a new study says there are fewer birds than there used to be.
Creative (Climate) Communications [starts at 7:40] As a climate scientist Professor Max Boykoff is part of a community that has been persistently making the case that global warming is a serious problem, with severe and widespread consequences and that human activity is contributing to the problem and significant changes in human behavior is instrumental to addressing the problem, and averting disaster. Despite advances in the realm of science, the effort to change attitudes, habits, beliefs and ultimately behavior and policy, has not been nearly successful enough. And so Max Boykoff, as Director of the Center for Science and Technology Policy Research, studies, specifically in the realm of science, how opinions are formed, why arguments are believed or dismissed, what really works to motivate individuals to change habits and what really works to impel societies and governments to switch policies and priorities. With global warming the stakes could not be higher. And so this sets the stage for his latest book released just last month from Cambridge University Press: Creative (Climate) Communications.

I interview 6 complete strangers on their creative experience.
Creativity is the phenomenon by which something new is created and the newly created creation is somewhat of a value to either the receiver or the creator. The new creation could be intangible like a song, a theory, an algorithm, or a software. it can also be tangible like a painting or an invented device. According to numerous authors, we are currently in a creativity crisis because first of all, creativity decreases with age, and secondly our new generations are turning out to be less creative when compared to their parents at the same age. We are getting smarter every decade and our IQ levels are rising but creativity is declining. In 2005 Dr. KH Kim conducted a study where she analysed all the studies published between 1965 and 2005 that presented any relationship between intelligence and creativity. And she concluded that there was a very negligible relationship between creativity and intelligence. Even though you have a high IQ that does not make you a creative person. To get further clarity and confirmation reagrding her findings of this 2005 study, Dr.Kim gathered a total of 272,599 TTCT scores from Kindergartners to adults. Torrance Tests of Creative Thinking (TTCT). the most reliable creativity test that has been translated into 40 languages around the world. She even included scores of participants from Canada. Dr. Kim’s objective was to analyze each element of creativity. The elements of creativity are: Fluency score: represents total number of ideas generated Originality score; explains how unique those idea are Abstractness of Title score: explain how symbolic and abstract the ideas are Resistance to Premature closure score: describes how receptive and open minded the subjects are After a rigorous peer-review process Dr. Kim’s study results were published in the Creativity Research Journal in November 2011. And the results are as follows: Fluency score had declined since 1990. Fluency score is really important because in order to come up with a unique or good idea you have to be able to generate many ideas first. Originality score had also declined since 1990 indicating that we are less able to generate unusual ideas. Originality is one of the most critical elements of creative thinking. Rationale for this decline is Psychologically, most of us are uncomfortable with the change, uncertainty, new ideas, challenges, and risk that accompany creativity and creative behavior. In order for thinkers to present original ideas, the climate needs to be receptive, or at least not hostile to expression and consideration of unusual and wild ideas. Abstractness of title score also saw a decline since 1998, this is what allows some people to recognize and describe patterns and the essence of problems without distorting the information. Resistance to Premature Closure scores are on the decline as well since 1998 and it indicates that better solutions require keeping an open mind in order to take the time to understand the problem and to consider all of the potential solutions to the problem. Keeping an open mind about different people and what they have to offer broadens the scope of potential resources, which also leads to new and better solutions. Accepting and celebrating diversity is one way to foster creative thinking because considering different points of view or putting seemingly different things together helps us with solving problems or inventing. This study along with many others provides ample evidence of an era of continued decline in creativity. Acknowledging these declines in areas like creativity, self-awareness and social bonding. This why we decided to start this podcast in order to bring the community of like minded rebels together who want to make an impact on this world. Now here is the how to: First, if you are a creative or consider yourself one or even if you are intrigued by this study please send us an email right now at hello@jolsid.com with a request for Creativity test and we will forward you the test along with the instructions for free. Try to create CAT in your daily routine or identify people who can. If you would like to know how to select those individuals in your life please listen to our yesterday’s podcast or blog by clicking this link, for further details mentioned there along with the research. Now back to Creativity, so creativity requires CAT, not actual cat, I think that wouldn't be bad either but this CAT is an acronym for : Creative Climate, Creative Attitude, and Creative Thinking. Displaying Creative Attitudes requires an encouraging Creative Climate. As the Climate becomes continually antagonistic to creative expression, Creative Attitudes will diminish, Creative Thinking will diminish, and creative potential will be lost.
