Interview with Karin Kirk.Karin Kirk is a geologist, science writer, and professional ski instructor from Bozeman, Montana. Her writing spans topics from Earth science to EVs and often is centered around data-rich visualizations – always with the goal of bringing clear and relatable explanations to confusing topics.In addition to writing for Yale Climate Connections, Karin is a science writer for NASA, where she writes about climate science and current events that shape the planet, such as wildfires, volcanic eruptions, sea ice, and weather events. She uses satellite imagery to track current Earth happenings and describe their significance to the public.But perhaps the most important aspect of Karin's work is that she regularly engages with policymakers and voters about climate and energy issues. These interactions have profoundly shaped her communication skills and helped her develop effective approaches for a wide range of audiences.Karin holds a B.A. in geology from Skidmore College and an M.S. in geology from Montana State University.https://yaleclimateconnections.org/author/karin/Investing skeptically:Can a famouns Money Manager (and CNBC host) beat the market?

This week, Cal Poly Humboldt Assistant Professor Jennifer Marlow and Graduate Research Assistant Alec Brown join Jen Kalt of Humboldt Waterkeeper to talk about the 44 Feet Project, which is focused on the future risk of climate and coastal hazards to Humboldt Bay's spent nuclear fuel site above the town of King Salmon. The first privately-owned nuclear plant in the U.S, the Humboldt Bay Power Plant produced electricity from 1963 to 1976, leaving 37 tons of spent nuclear fuel to be stored indefinitely 115 feet from the edge of an eroding bluff just 44 feet above current sea level.Two recent developments will be of particular interest to residents of King Salmon and other Humboldt Bay communities. In June, the Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury made recommendations for improving disaster planning and emergency preparedness in response to "any Independent Spent Fuel Storage Installation-related emergencies." In September, the California Public Utilities Commission recently issued a Final Decision in which PG&E agreed to update the tsunami hazard assessment for the spent fuel storage site. For more info:The climate threat to California's stored nuclear waste - Yale Climate Connections, Oct. 2023Spent nuclear fuel sits on a crumbling California coastline.

In this episode of The Gate 15 Interview, Andy Jabbour visits with Dr. Jeff Masters. Jeff Masters, Ph.D., worked as a hurricane scientist with the NOAA Hurricane Hunters from 1986-1990. After a near-fatal flight into category 5 Hurricane Hugo, he left the Hurricane Hunters to pursue a safer passion - earning a 1997 Ph.D. in air pollution meteorology from the University of Michigan. In 1995, he co-founded the Weather Underground, and served as its chief meteorologist and on its Board of Directors until it was sold to the Weather Company in 2012. Between 2005-2019, his Category 6 blog was one of the Internet's most popular and widely quoted sources of extreme weather and climate change information. He now frequently writes for YALE Climate Connections. On Twitter: @DrJeffMasters In the discussion we address: Jeff's incredible Hurricane Hugo experience. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Report and going beyond the ‘planetary boundaries of safe operation for the planet.' Jeff's important ideas to understand about climate change. Jeff discusses his two biggest climate concerns - the disruptive threats from sea level rise and drought, including: A potential ‘massive financial threat to the US.' Jeff says, ‘we're not correctly pricing risk…there threatens to be a shakeout in the…market' and he notes insurance company struggles in Florida, Louisiana and California as examples before discussing the potential cascading effects associated with humans fleeing from the coasts. Threats to critical infrastructure, including real estate, water and wastewater, transportation and supply chains. And he explains his concerns about drought impacting food prices and leading to famine. Hurricane season 2023, an anticipated El Nino year, perhaps something that may look like the 2018 hurricane season. Plus! Devo, getting outdoors, watermelon, and the beauty of the Havasupai Canyon. A few references mentioned in or relevant to our discussion include: Jeff's Hurricane Hugo Experience: Weather Underground: Hunting Hugo: The Hurricane Hunters' Wildest Ride, a multi-part story of Jeff's incredible experience in the eye of Hurricane Hugo. Weather Underground: A flight through Hurricane Hugo, remembered 20 years later, 15 Sep 2009 Originally published in Weatherwise magazine, Hunting Hugo was made available in digital form, complete with the many photos I took on the flight, on the web site I co-founded, Weather Underground. A separate account of the flight was written by a reporter from Barbados who was on the flight, and was published in my Weather Underground blog in 2009. There was a 45-minute episode of “Air Crash Investigation” (AKA “Mayday”) on the Hugo flight called “Into the Eye of the Storm” that aired in 2014. Several hundred thousand dollars was spent on the episode, which included CGI effects, a set built in Toronto to simulate the flight, and actors playing the crew and scientists. In 2022, the video was available with a paid subscription to Paramount Plus. The video was also available for free at apparat.com.

In this episode we look at climate stories that reveal the impacts of climate solutions. This is a harder story to tell because many of the best solutions are still on the table. In fact, you are working hard to get lawmakers and community leaders to take these solutions seriously and put them into practice. In 25 or 50 years we will be able to tell many stories about the beneficial impacts these solutions will have. But we need to tell these stories today.  There are three different types of Climate Solution Impact stories you can tell. The Current Solution Success Story The Future Solution Success Story The Solution Motivation Story For examples of Current Climate Change Solution Success Stories, we hear from Dr. Anthony Leiserowitz and Yale Climate Connections.  A new solar-powered car designed to travel up to 40 miles on sunshine alone: That's enough to cover many people's daily commutes. Eight states, 30 cities team up to reduce flooding threat along the Mississippi: They've partnered with Ducks Unlimited to restore more than 60 wetlands that will hold floodwaters during storms. To hear and read more of these stories visit Yale Climate Connections.    The Future Climate Change Solution Success Story This type of story relies on our efforts to envision and imagine the world filled with the solutions we advocate. We want to paint a picture of a future worth pursuing. When we succeed, we create a yearning in others for this better world. For examples of these, head over to the Clifi Imaginarium. Allison Whitaker tells us about the ways they take seemingly dry information about solutions, and turn them into compelling stories. Check out With Many Roots to read these Cli-fi solution stories and to learn about the free monthly Introduction to Climate Fiction on-line workshops.  The Climate Change Solution Motivation Story This story reveals why I am motivated to do the climate work I am doing. The story itself may not seem to have anything to do with climate change. Still this story goes right to the heart of my work. I will tell you one of my climate solution motivation stories.  Citizens Climate Radio host, Peterson Toscano, shares one of his motivation stories, and shows us how to then pivot to climate change solutions and specific meaningful action.  What you will learn in this episode We can tell effective climate stories. There are two types of climate change stories.  The climate change impact story--A story that reveals the dangers climate-changed induced extreme weather and other impacts have on our lives and the world.  The second are the climate solution stories. We covered three different climate solutions stories. The Current Climate Change Solution Success Story. This might be a story about a breakthrough in technology, a new important person or group who is on board in pursuing climate change solutions, or it can be about a solution that has been put into action. The Future Climate Change Success Story. This one requires your imagination to envision what the future will look like with solutions in place. This is a form of clifi, or climate fiction.  And finally the Climate Change Solution Motivation Story. This story reveals why you are so passionate about a particular climate change solution.  Once you tell a compelling story about your motivation, the future, or climate impact, you can then do the Climate Change Pivot. Connect your story to the solution you are pursuing.   But don't leave them with just a pivot. Provide your listener with a specific, meaningful, and achievable next step. It might be as simple as asking, “Do you want to get together over coffee sometime next week to talk more about this?” Do you want to learn more about climate storytelling and get some experience in a group?  Join Peterson for a free on-line storytelling workshop January 17th 2023 8:00 PM Eastern. He will share activities and insights, and he will give feedback to participants about their stories. You will walk away with fresh inspiration in telling your compelling climate stories. It will be fun and informative. Click here to register for the training.

David Wallace-Wells (pictured) is known for his book "Uninhabitable Earth" and now, in The New York Times has written the article: "Beyond Catastrophe A New Climate Reality Is Coming Into View ". In The Guardian, Damien Carrington tells readers: "World close to ‘irreversible' climate breakdown, warn major studies". Canary Media has gone live with: "Canary Live New York: Top 3 trends in New York climate and energy". And from Yale Climate Connections it is: "Latina leader wants to build a more inclusive climate movement". Again from The Guardian, it's: "Climate crisis: UN finds ‘no credible pathway to 1.5C in place'". The Conversation tells us: "Farmers need certainty over emissions pricing – removing government from the equation might help". This time Jasper Jolly writes in The Guardian: "Carbon emissions from energy to peak in 2025 in ‘historic turning point', says IEA." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/robert-mclean/message

Nicki Hutley (pictured) from the Climate Council said climate change was not yet centre stage, but it was mentioned some 220 times in this week's Australian budget and, that it was argued was a significant improvement over what had existed in Australia for nearly a decade. Read the Climate Council story: "Climate features big in Budget but little relief for cost of living underscores need to hasten renewables transition". And from The New York Times, we read: "Climate Pledges Are Falling Short, and a Chaotic Future Looks More Like Reality". EuroNews.green tells readers: "China is building the world's largest wind farm and it could power 13m homes". The Washington Post has some challenging news for parents: "‘Virtually every child' to face frequent heat waves by 2050, UNICEF says". Writing in The Guardian, Fiona Harvey, says: "Current emissions pledges will lead to catastrophic climate breakdown, says UN". Yale Climate Connections tells us: "Economic benefits of wind, solar in rural Appalachia could top $65 billion". And from Columbia University Climate School we hear about "Giving Tuesday". Writing in The New Daily, Ash Cant warns us: "Prepare for a soggy summer, as La Nina settles in until next year". Guardian readers are told: "Australian governments urged to scrap ‘one-in-100-year' flood standard and update risk maps". --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/robert-mclean/message

Yale Climate Connections has recognised the fact that children are, in a sense, excluded from the climate conversation and so have recommended a book - "New children's book explains systemic nature of climate change". Quick Climate Links is not about pedagogy, rather it's about helping you better understand the climate crisis and subsequently be in a stronger position to make your own choices and decisions. A Melbourne Age story by NIck Toscano - "ExxonMobil fires warning over Victoria's plan to turn off gas" - needs to be read with a critical mind and looked at through a doubting and questioning prism.

Citizens' Climate Radio host Peterson Toscano speaks with public theologian Jayme R. Reaves and public health expert Dr. Natasha DeJarnett. Jayme R. Reaves is the director of academic development at Sarum College in Salisbury, England. She teaches in areas such as biblical studies, and feminist and liberation theology. Jayme discusses the roles that scarcity and abundance play in making sure that those most impacted by the environment in the community around us are cared for. She calls on churches to work in their own communities to make congregations aware of sharing with those who don't have as much. She's the author of Safeguarding the Stranger: An Abrahamic Theology & Ethic of Protective Hospitality (Wipf & Stock, 2016) and co-editor of When Did We See You Naked?: Jesus as a Victim of Sexual Abuse (SCM, 2021). Dr. Natasha DeJarnett is an assistant professor in the Christina Lee Brown Environment Institute at the University of Louisville Division of Environmental Medicine, researching the health impacts of extreme heat exposure and environmental health disparities. Additionally, she is a professorial lecturer in Environmental and Occupational Health at the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health. Previously, Dr. DeJarnett was the interim associate director of Program and Partnership Development at the National Environmental Health Association, leading research, climate and health, and children's environmental health. Dr. DeJarnett emphasizes that more than ever before, people are being displaced as a result of severe weather phenomena caused by climate change. In 2018, 16 million people were displaced due to climate, 1.2 million of which were American. She points out that in 2020, more hurricanes and tropical storms made landfall than ever before, to the point where letters in the Greek alphabet were being used to name them, as the list of hurricane names had been used up. Dr. DeJarnett says that church communities are presented with the opportunity to provide hospitality more than ever by turning churches into cooling centers, and by educating the community about staying safe through weather phenomena. The Art House Joining us in the Art House is Dr. Krista Hiser with The Ultimate Cli-Fi Book Club. The purpose of the book club is to look at climate-themed literature and consider how it can help us engage differently with interdisciplinary topics and existential threats related to the planetary predicament of climate change. In this month's episode, Krista tells us that the protagonist of “A Rain of Night Birds” is a scientist that also relies on feeling to gauge the environmental phenomena around her. With themes of spiritualism and indigenous culture, this “literature of restoration” focuses on the concept of doing no harm, based on the importance of the world around us. Good News Report Our good news comes from Anthony Leiserowitz at Yale Climate Connections. In tune with the theme of hospitality, Anthony discusses a disaster resiliency program geared toward Spanish-speaking residents in Sonoma County, California. Whether people lose power or work as a result of climate and weather disasters, many nonprofits are developing plans and guides to help Spanish speakers in the west prepare. These programs help residents sign up for emergency alerts, prepare for emergencies, and make financial arrangements needed to safely leave during severe weather.

We live in a world with stronger and more frequent extreme weather events. As a result, giving and receiving hospitality is becoming the new normal for humans. Citizens' Climate Radio host Peterson Toscano speaks with public theologian Jayme R. Reaves and public health expert Dr. Natasha DeJarnett. What are the risks leading to more displacement? What are the dilemmas and challenges of housing, feeding, and creating more space for people uprooted from homes during extreme weather? And what are some of the creative ways communities provide protection to those temporarily or permanently unhoused?  Jayme R. Reaves is the director of academic development at Sarum College in Salisbury, England. She teaches in areas such as biblical studies, and feminist and liberation theology. Over the last 20 years, she has worked as a consultant, researcher, lecturer, and facilitator in the U.S., former Yugoslavia, Northern Ireland, and Great Britain. Her focus internationally has been on the intersections between theology and public issues such as peace, conflict, hospitality, memory, and gender.  Jayme discusses the roles that scarcity and abundance play in making sure that those most impacted by the environment in the community around us are cared for. She calls on churches to work in their own communities to make congregations aware of sharing with those who don't have as much.  Jayme regularly speaks, leads retreats, conducts workshops, and acts as “theologian in residence” with communities who wish to dive deeper into understanding theological frameworks for social justice activism. She's the author of Safeguarding the Stranger: An Abrahamic Theology & Ethic of Protective Hospitality (Wipf & Stock, 2016) and co-editor of When Did We See You Naked?: Jesus as a Victim of Sexual Abuse (SCM, 2021).  Additionally, she co-hosts the podcast Outlander Soul, which looks at the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon with a theological, religious, and spiritual lens and takes seriously the role fiction plays in fans' lives as a sacred text. Jayme lives in Dorset, England with her partner and two dogs. Dr. Natasha DeJarnett is an assistant professor in the Christina Lee Brown Environment Institute at the University of Louisville Division of Environmental Medicine, researching the health impacts of extreme heat exposure and environmental health disparities. Additionally, she is a professorial lecturer in Environmental and Occupational Health at the George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health. Previously, Dr. DeJarnett was the interim associate director of Program and Partnership Development at the National Environmental Health Association, leading research, climate and health, and children's environmental health.  She also previously served as a policy analyst at the American Public Health Association (APHA), where she led the Natural Environment portfolio, including air and water exposures along with climate change. Dr. DeJarnett is a member of the EPA's Children's Health Protection Advisory Committee, is chair of the Governing Board of Citizens' Climate Education, a member of the Board of Directors of Physicians for Social Responsibility, chair-elect for APHA's Environment Section, member of the Advisory Board of APHA's Center for Climate, Health and Equity, a member of the Board of Trustees for the BTS Center, special advisor to the Environmental Health and Equity Collaborative, and the Steering Committee of the International Transformational Resilience Coalition.

How does an American Hindu approach the climate crisis? What ancient values and teachings apply to modern life in America today? And how does this relate to LGBTQ issues and public health? Hari Venkatachalam connects his faith, work, heritage, and even his sexual orientation to living in a climate-changed world. In the episode Hari reveals how extreme weather, which affects everyone, disproportionally impacts LGBTQ homeless youth. Citizens Climate Radio host, Peterson Toscano, explains, Up to 40% of youth living on the streets in the United States and Canada are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and non-binary. Many of them avoid going to shelters because they assume they will received the same discrimination and hostility they escaped. This is especially true for transgender and gender non-binary young people. This puts them at extra risk during extreme weather events. Hari Venkatachalam also talks about his faith and the principles handed down to him from his father. Hari is an active member of Sadhana: A Coalition of Progressive Hindus, and his activism focuses on environmental justice, LGBTQ+ issues, and public health. He currently works in Tampa, Florida as a public health researcher for the Department of Veterans Affairs. Kathy Baughman McLeod, SVP, Atlantic Council & Director, Adrienne Arsht - Rockefeller Foundation Resilience Center, also weighs in to talk about the dangers of extreme heat. Joining us in the Art House is Dr. Krista Hiser, with the first in a series of an occasional feature called The Ultimate Cli-Fi Book cCub. The purpose of the book club is to look at climate-themed literature and consider how it can help us engage differently with interdisciplinary topics and existential threats related to the planetary predicament of climate change. In this episode Krista reflects on the cli-fi novel, Blaze Island by Catherine Bush, and lets her imagination run wild, as she pulls together some of the greatest minds in climate fiction. Dr. Krista Hiser is Professor at Kapiʻolani Community College. Her PhD is in Educational Administration from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa. She has published on community engagement, service-learning, organizational change, post-apocalyptic and cli-fi literature. You can read a written version of Krista's essay at The Ultimate Cli-Fi Book Club for Sustainability in Higher Education on Medium. You can hear standalone versions of The Art House at Artists and Climate Change Good News Report Our good news comes from Anthony Leiserowitz at Yale Climate Connections. You will hear about a new fund which aims to bring more people into the climate conversation.

Dr. Krista Hiser is teaches at Kapiʻolani Community College and is currently serving as the Director of the Center for Sustainability Across the Curriculum in Hawaii. Her research uses focus groups, interviews, and reflective writing to learn more about student and faculty perspectives on climate change and sustainability. To share the findings she and her colleague Matthew K. Lynch co-wrote the paper, Worry and Hope: What College Students Know, Think, Feel, and Do about Climate Change. It appears in the Journal for Community Engagement and Scholarship. This study is being replicated at universities in the USA and reveals how students are feeling about climate change and where they are learning about it. With this data, Kr. Hiser leads workshops to help faculty expand their teaching strategies in order to help students manage complex emotions related to our climate predicament. Dr. Hiser has published on community engagement, service-learning, organizational change, post-apocalyptic and cli-fi literature. She is also the author of Field Notes: Teaching Climate Change in Higher Education, a blog available through Medium.com The Art House Sarah Jaquette Ray is a professor of environmental studies, a writer, and a mom. She doesn’t necessarily see herself as an artist. In taking on climate change though, she recognizes the essential role of the arts. On Earth Day 2020, in the midst of an urgent Coronavirus pandemic, she published a book that is helping people navigate their strong feelings about climate change. A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety: How to Keep Your Cool on a Warming Planet, provides practical insights and proven techniques for keeping focused on pursuing solutions for a complicated and challenging topic.

They show how racist housing policies of the past have left residents more vulnerable to the impacts of climate change today.   Mingoya says the maps show how the impacts of redlining persist, and provide an important tool for local residents, “to sit down with their local government, with elected officials, with leaders in their community and say, ‘You need to explain why this is still the case and you need to explain what you’re going to do to make things look a little bit different.’” If you have good news to share, leave a voice mail at 518.595.9414.

Citizens Climate Education encourages bipartisan support for climate solutions. While people on the Left, Right, and in the Middle might disagree on many issues, Climate Change is one that can bring us together. But this is not always easy to do. It requires listening deeply to others who hold views on issues and policies that differ from my own. Bob Inglis is the Executive Director of republicEn.org. He was elected to the U.S. Congress in 1992, having never run for office before and he served a pair of six-year terms (1993-98, 2005-10). In 2011, Inglis went full-time into promoting free enterprise action on climate change and launched the Energy and Enterprise Initiative (“E&EI”) at George Mason University in July 2012. In the fall of 2014, E&EI rebranded to become republicEn.org. republicEn.org is an online grassroots community of over 10,000 Americans educating the country about free-enterprise solutions to climate change. Bob shares some of his own journey about how he got into the climate work, and he tells us about the lessons he learned in reaching out to fellow conservatives. He also reveals to us his thoughts and feelings about the January 6th storming of the US Capitol by supporters of then President Donald Trump. The Art House In the Art House we feature song leaders Annie Patterson and Peter Blood. They are liberal Quakers in New England who have been leading singing for over 30 years. They talk about the songs that motivate and inspire climate advocates. Some are protest songs and others are beautiful ballads. They discuss the role of music in social movements as they offer up their own tiny desk concert.  Annie and Peterson are the creators of the Rise Up Singing and Rise Again Song Books. These songbooks take on social justice issues like racism, poverty, inequality, and sexism. See them in action on the Rise Up and Sing YouTube channel. https://riseupandsing.org You can hear standalone version of The Art House at Artists and Climate Change. Good News Report We partnered with Yale Climate Connections to bring us good news out of Hammond, Indiana. After a coal-fired power plant shut down in 2012, the city had to figure out what to do with the site while also replacing the lost tax revenue the plant closure created. They came up with a creative solution. https://yaleclimateconnections.org

While people on the Left, Right, and in the Middle might disagree on many issues, Climate Change is one that can bring us together. But this is not always easy to do. It requires listening deeply to others who hold views on issues and policies that differ from my own.  Climate advocates are wondering: In a time of tense partisan divisions, how can I learn to listen to someone from a different political party? How might I identify shared values and common ground?  In this episode of Citizens Climate Radio we will get some practice in listening. We will hear from the political the right and the left.

"Extreme Heat, Climate Change and COVID-19 Pandemic" features Bob Henson, Meteorologist of Yale Climate Connections, and Dr. Laalitha Surapaneni of The University of Minnesota Medical School. Bob Henson breaks down the definition of extreme heat, the variance in different parts of the country, and the danger of heatwaves. Bob continues to speak about awareness and planning for heat, after a heatwave in 1995 that truly alerted our populations to the consequences of our warming planning. Extreme heat has changed the way we live and our habits, in small and large ways, from water bottles being as common as our wallets, and more concrete cities planting trees. September 2020 was collectively the highest temperature month on record. Bob reminds listeners to take little steps to understand our weather patterns and "stay cool!" Dr. Surapaneni explains that heat is one of the most direct impacts of climate change on health. There are various ways to look at heat's impact on health, from looking at the numbers of people exposed to extreme heat worldwide, to the number of workforces and laborer hours lost as a result of health. Health costs are also rising with temperatures. Dr. Surapaneni also notes heat impacts pre-existing conditions in her everyday patients, such as a crisis in sickle cell anemia. When we think of extreme heat we must expand our understanding of how it impacts our overall health. Dr. Surapaneni urges listeners to protect themselves by speaking to their primary care physicians, especially during the overlapping crisis of rising temperatures and the COVID-19 pandemic. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/healthy-radio/support

What You Need to Know is it’s time to demand a refund from our schools! More and more schools are choosing distance learning this fall. If they can’t open except to teach remotely then parents should demand a refund. Parents deserve the freedom to decide what’s best for their kids. Yes, we do need to watch out for the health of kids, teachers, and administrators but we have to be realistic. The reality is that schools are failing, the system is broken, and the teachers are out of control. Our parents are paying the price, so let’s give them the freedom to choose what’s best for their kids — and give them their money back! Catherine Engelbrecht, founder of True the Vote, talks about how to get involved in the next 3 months before elections. This year voting is not enough! You still need to vote and register others to vote — but this year more people are needed working in absentee ballot reviews and as poll workers. Find out how you can get involved at TruetheVote.org. Mark Schneider, founder and president of Gen IV Nuclear, Inc., talks about Yale Climate Connections article on “We've been having the wrong debate about nuclear energy.” Mark explains that it’s time to sit down and discuss what advanced nuclear technology is and really break down the anti nuclear narrative. Wrap up: 1) What’s going to happen with sports? More and more players test positive for COVID-19. 2) Expect the announcement next week that Kamala Harris will be picked as the Democratic VP.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He lives with his wife, Sandra, in Midland, MI, where he works out of his home. It’s been over a week since mid-Michigan was hit with catastrophic flooding that washed away and damaged homes, wiped out an entire lake and displaced residents. On Tuesday, May 19, the Edenville Dam collapsed and shortly after, water flooded over the top of the Sanford Dam following heavy rains. The dams, both based in Midland County, sent rushing water down the Tittabawassee and Saginaw rivers. Thousands of Michiganders are still picking up the pieces from the flood’s aftermath. /// State of Water is a program of the Michigan-based non-profit organization Title Track, and is powered by the Clean Water Campaign for Michigan.

Special Guest Expert: Mary DeMocker I remember, as a child, learning that you turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth. You close the refrigerator quickly and turn off the lights when you leave the room—little things- and they needed to be taught because otherwise, I admit, I hadn't thought much about leaving the tap on, standing in front of the open fridge for minutes figuring out what I wanted to eat or leaving on the lights in every conceivable room. I've needed to teach it to my kids too- but of course, they sometimes forget. Sometimes protecting the Earth isn't the first thought that comes to mind when you're standing in the shower, letting the hot water fall on your head and back. For some, climate change might feel distant- like something happening elsewhere but not right here at home. Although this seems to be changing a bit- many families, all over the world have found that climate change has begun to touch their lives. Deadlier wild fires, increasingly crazy weather, additional information of melting ice caps on the nightly news- information coming to us through news anchors as well as out of the mouths of younger and younger activists that are demanding awareness and action. My own children have quoted information from Weird But True books and nature documentaries about what's going on with the polar bears and tropical forests. The truth is, we are all feeling the effects and we are all contributing to the effects of climate change-- AND we are also able to help solve the problem. Of course, this means we must have the discussions that can bring about the change. It starts with opening our mouths and our hearts so that we can lay it all on the table. How do we give our children the facts about climate change- from discussions of fossil fuels to fluctuating animal habitats to sustainable and destructive energy sources so that they are in the know? And how can we, as families, alter how we live our lives, in small consistent ways, that will help create a healthier future for our loved ones? We need a climate revolution—and it starts at home, with us. Our special guest today is Mary Democker. Mary DeMocker's book, The Parents' Guide to Climate Revolution: 100 Ways to Build a Fossil-Free Future, Raise Empowered Kids, and Still Get a Good Night's Sleep is a finalist for the 2019 Oregon Book Award and has been featured on Yale Climate Connections and recommended on NPR and in The New York Times. Mary writes and speaks widely about parenting in a changing climate, helping parents, educators, clinicians, and young people find a positive role in the global transition to a clean energy future. She lives in Eugene, Oregon with her husband and sometimes her son, a freshman in college. His sister older graduated from college last year and is a teacher.

The Citizens Climate Lobby’s push for a carbon fee and dividend system to reduce climate change Members of the organization Citizens Climate Lobby stopped by the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette offices to visit with our editorial board about their hopes for federal legislation to establish a fee and dividend structure to encourage the reduction of carbon-producing activities. Editorial page editor Greg Harton visited with two members in our Fayetteville podcast studios for the latest edition of “Speaking of Arkansas.” For additional information about the Citizens’ Climate Lobby’s stance, visit the organization’s Carbon Fee and Dividend Policy and FAQs at https://citizensclimatelobby.org/carbon-fee-and-dividend/ For a sampling of other analyses about the merits or lack of merits for a carbon fee and dividend system, visit: Yale Climate Connections - https://www.yaleclimateconnections.org/2016/07/pros-and-cons-of-a-carbon-tax-key-issues/ The Congressional Budget Office report on the “Effects of a Carbon Tax on the Economy and the Environment” - http://www.cbo.gov/sites/default/files/113th-congress-2013-2014/reports/44223_Carbon_0.pdf The CATO Institute - https://www.cato.org/publications/policy-analysis/case-against-us-carbon-tax Wharton University of Pennsylvania - https://publicpolicy.wharton.upenn.edu/live/news/1519-why-a-carbon-tax-is-good-for-the-us-economy The National Review - https://www.nationalreview.com/2017/02/carbon-tax-dividend-plan-conservative-case/ Other editions of “Speaking of Arkansas” as well as other podcasts from the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette can be found at nwaonline.com/podcast

Biz and Theresa discuss how confident we feel in our parenting choices…that is until someone else is suddenly there, watching! Maybe it's at the dinner table or in the car, we have worked hard to make these places the perfect balance of controlled chaos with minimal amounts of soul sucking. It works! It makes sense! Then a friend or relative comes to visit and even if they say nothing, their presence alone can suddenly makes us feel like a weirdo. Great!

Sara Peach, the senior editor at Yale Climate Connections has only 90 seconds to tell a compelling and inspiring climate change related story. She sits down with show host, Peterson Toscano, to discuss the kind of stories that move people closer to climate advocacy. Based on extensive research from the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication, Sara and her team have produced hundreds of short radio pieces. She brought two of these stories with her to share on this episode. Sara also talks about where she is finding hope these and what she does when she hears discouraging climate news. Art House Singer Song writer Dan Dewald produces music as Hayride Casualties. His album Fossil Fuel Kid is all about climate change. The songs explore how climate change affects us. They point to the complications of feeling complicit in contributing to the pollution. In addition, they have songs that point to the fierce passionate response needed to address our growing fossil fuel problem.
