Today, Nov 5, is Election Day in the US. Climate is on the ballot 🌎🗳️‼️
It’s time to vote AND. Vote + continue to organize. Vote + push our leaders on climate policy. Vote + build grassroots leadership. Vote + reshape culture. The list goes on…
But VOTE. The climate needs us.

Check out Kim's substack (and research) - she's a pioneer in the field of low-carbon leading by example... 💫
And thanks, Kim, for a great summary of our article!

Super-happy to share the first paper from my PhD, published in ERSS🧵
We explore how UK politicians view their responsibility to lead by example with low-carbon behaviour (or not)
TLDR: some MPs lead by example on the quiet, but fear being "extreme"

No matter how you feel about the outcome of COP28, you can stop financing fossil fuels today with your own money.

Last stop before lunch: the Climate Science and Policy oral session! I particularly appreciated @KA_Nicholas’ talk on assessing the climate policies of Swedish political parties and her emphasis on the importance of voting for climate action.
Climate science and policy - come hear this great lineup in Moscone West 2020 starting 10:20!
I’m on at 11:12 with “Scientists, assess your politicians’ climate policies!” #AGU23
