PaulaToThePeople<p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/3GoodThings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3GoodThings</span></a> or quite a bit more actually.</p><p>Lately things are going quite good for me personally.</p><p>1) For my education in animal assisted intervention I'm writing a paper about animal assisted climate communication, combining two of my passions. And I think it will be really good.</p><p>2) I want to work in animal assisted education later, but since animal assisted intervention is more of an advanced education I want to get a basic education in education too. My plan is to start both social education and environmental education in the fall. Social education is, I believe, the thing that most people working in animal assisted education have in their curriculum, so it's probably a good thing to have, while environmental education is rather rare, so it might give me an edge for job applications. But mostly I'm just convinced that both will teach me a lot of great skills and knowledge.</p><p>3) I've started taking my dog Platon to work (personal assistance for a woman with MS) and since its going well I think I can take him with me every time in the future and that means I can work more (because my mom can't always take Platon) and might finally get out of the monthly red numbers that I'm in for many years now.</p><p>4) We're also close to getting the house ready to rent out a few rooms for a little side-money.<br>That will be another relief financially, but mostly I hope it will mean I have some cool roommates. And maybe some people who can take Platon sometimes.</p><p>5) I came out of a depression more than a year ago and kept still taking one of the meds, as its supposed to help the brain get used to how the internal chemistry should be. But it really messed with my memory. Now that spring is coming I'm reducing and eventually getting rid of the medication and I can already tell that my memory is getting a bit better again.</p><p>6) I randomly met a friend from school the other day and we started going on walks together regularly and have great talks. That's a kind of friendship I've been missing for a long time.</p><p>7) I'm quite proud of what we accomplished at the :FediverseFoundation: lately. We finished 2024 almost in the black figures, finally created an account (<a href="https://fedi.at/@FediverseFoundation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">fedi.at/@FediverseFoundation</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>), are regularly posting on our blog (<a href="https://fediverse.foundation/en/blog/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">fediverse.foundation/en/blog/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>) and will launch a Pixelfed server tomorrow (<a href="https://instapix.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">instapix.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>).

PaulaToThePeople<p>Be honest.<br>So far you understood <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCommunication</span></a> as...</p><p>a) any communication about the climate.<br>b) any communication about the climate by someone who is on the side of mitigating the climate crisis, like an activist.<br>c) any factual communication about climate backed by climate science.<br>d) communication about climate that has a higher chance of not driving the target audience into defense mechanisms (denial, false hope, greenwashing,...) because its backed by climate psychology.</p>

If you get diverted, say "good question" and then bring it back to climate change. </p><p>If asked about probabilities and if this could be non climate related, the answer is a simple "no". Do not let them open the "uncertainty" door. State "no" first, then if you must, you can hedge with "the odds of that are so low...."</p><p>Every single question, go back to climate change. </p><p>If you can, throw in "start with banning private jets" or whatever snazzy statement you feel like but stirring the pot for live interviews is the best. You won't get many chances to get your message out.</p><p>Stay United. Do not undermine other researchers. They will ask leading questions and try to trap you into saying something they want printed. Do not be afraid to take control. "I think you've misunderstood, let me rephrase that to..."</p><p>Serious offer for any scientist about to do media, ping me, I'll be happy to do some basic media training before go time. Make sure you know what to expect and most importantly, any traps they may try to lay. </p><p>When poor people are getting devastated by climate change, nobody cares. This is hitting extremely rich people so this is as much media as climate change will get.

So the other captains might be waiting to see how that goes.</p><p>And the change at the helm will bring new flexibilty--admittedly, not in physics, but in how to ignore physics with real flare...not that there will be other ships around capable of responding to such flares.</p><p>- - - - -</p><p>In all seriousness, though, while people already sold on the urgency of climate change can see cartoons like this and understand them, I actually think that this presentation promotes a misunderstanding of a serious nature. </p><p>Climate change is not a big event that suddenly happens in one particular moment, like the impact with an iceberg, or an asteroid strike in Don't Look Up. But metaphors like this, well meaning as they are in their intent that you focus on different aspects of the analogy, support the particular kind of denial that the new crew will be using a lot of: pointing to the absence of some singular cataclysm like that is proof none is coming. </p><p>And the picture also makes it look like at any time we could just change course and all would be well. It also supports the metaphor that any single person could be the superhero that swoops in to save us by making that singular, smart course correction in any moment before the cataclysm. Neither the problem nor its possible solutions, if any remain at this point, are as crisp and neat and simple as that.</p><p>Climate change, at this point, is more like an endless array of ever-more-densely packed icebergs with a lot of small boats each having the creeping realization that this was not the path we should be on and that there isn't any easy way out of the maze. We watch as our fellow ships, one by one, crash into less dramatic-looking, yet equally deadly, smaller bergs and tell ourselves that this is not what's coming for us, that icebergs of that size are normal, that historically many boats do not get sunk by icebergs, that we'll be fine.</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateChange</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCrisis</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateEmergency" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateEmergency</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/COP29" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>COP29</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/icebergs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>icebergs</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Election2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Election2024</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Project2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Project2025</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/NOAA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NOAA</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/NASA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NASA</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/FEMA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FEMA</span></a></p>

Kent Pitman<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://climatejustice.social/@breadandcircuses" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>breadandcircuses</span></a></span> </p><p>This is an important message, but messages of this kind need to say the part about the survival, or lack thereof in EVERY sentence that mentions big or rapid past change. </p><p>Syntactically, for people who are barely reading, which is most people, with the eyes glazed over, you are not shocking people but confirming the disinformation, which says this has happened many times before. What makes the message different for people who ARE reading carefull (by which I mean the people who already know climate is a severe threat), is the part about survival rates. </p><p>Even the graphs need to make sure to have a little dotted line of human livability so the spikes can be seen crossing them. Again, blurring things out, a graph with a bunch of jagged lurches looks to deniers pretty much like "we've been through ice ages before", or "hey this is cyclic, get used to it".</p><p>We wouldn't be having to message as hard as we are if people were actually hearing what was being said, so we need to be applying as much thought/science to why people are avoiding the message as we're applying to the original science. Good intentions are fine and soothing, but the message is not getting through.</p><p>I know there's a temptation to read back through the text of such articles and say "but I said that". I'm really encouraging a pedantic reporting hygiene in which no single sentence can be taken out of context (without lopping off half of it) and miss the part about how humans weren't and most animals didn't survive. It's not enough to have said truth, you have to set truth in a way that will reach people who are not listening for it.</p><p>e.g., the headline in the article says "...uncovered a history of wild temperature shifts...". Out of context, this would falsely seem to confirm common misinformation. We need to encourage reporters to, and we who repeat these things need to be careful to, harden the individual sentences to say things like "...a history of deadly temperature swings..." etc. Or "unsurvivable" or "species-ending". The information is definitely in the article, just not in every sentence</p><p>Think of it like writing and performing a song where the main message is in a refrain that is repeated regularly and intended to be the part that the whole audience memorizes and sings along. </p><p>Headlines are perhaps the hardest because they're often written by an editor rather than the writer who spent a lot of time understanding it. </p><p>Just a hunch on my part, I suppose. Maybe this isn't where we're losing people, or maybe there's a better way, but right now it's my best guess for a simple thing we could do to improve messaging. </p><p>Think of it like that game where if you change one letter or one word in a movie title, it turns it into a completely different movie. And then imagine a bunch of paid professionals out there doing that every single climate story.

Solarpunk Presents Podcast<p>Season 1 Episode 8: Building Climate Resilience in the Western US, with Prof. Lisa Dilling</p><p>In this episode, we’re talking to Professor Lisa Dilling, of the University of Colorado, Boulder, about building networks of people through which information about regional climate predictions can flow to people and information about the needs, predicaments, and questions of people can flow to climate researchers.</p><p>As the changing climate increasingly disrupts our ways of life, we have three choices: do nothing, attempt to stop or even reverse climate change, and/or figure out how to withstand it. Option one is a terrible idea and the ship has (mostly) sailed on option two. But option three is how we learn to live—and maybe even thrive—in our changing world. Part of this is figuring out how to convey the information that climate researchers have gathered to the people—like farmers, water managers, and urban planners—who need to make decisions now—about things like what crops to plant, where to get water for everyone and how to allocate it, and where to plant trees—for both the near and slightly distant future.</p><p>You can follow Lisa Dilling on Twitter at @LisaD144, and the Western Water Assessment program at University of Colorado here: @WWAnews or visit their website at <a href="https://wwa.colorado.edu/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">wwa.colorado.edu/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://youtu.be/m5Vk8mlBsEE?si=aRza-e3MDspPDM-I" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">youtu.be/m5Vk8mlBsEE?si=aRza-e</span><span class="invisible">3MDspPDM-I</span></a></p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Episode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Episode</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Season1" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Season1</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/YouTube" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>YouTube</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/solarpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>solarpunk</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/SolarpunkPresentsPodcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SolarpunkPresentsPodcast</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/podcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>podcast</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/UniversityOfColorado" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UniversityOfColorado</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/WesternWaterAssessment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WesternWaterAssessment</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/agriculture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>agriculture</span></a></p>
Kent Pitman<p>Climate's threat is not limited to its first-order (primary) effects. There are domino effects. </p><p>Heat kills crops. Lack of crops causes famine. Heat changes the water cycle. Lack of water, changes in water distribution, or failed storage mechanisms (dried lakes or melted glaciers) causes drought. Drought also causes crop failures, too. Lack of food causes civil unrest. Even fear of it can cause unrest. There are many such cascade effects.</p><p>However the dominos fall, it makes the world more volatile. </p><p>A quick web search turned up a PBS article from a few months ago that nicely analyzes a number of my concerns.</p><p>«Beth Bechdol, deputy director of the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization, said scientific evidence is clear: “Climate change is compromising food security, and its impacts are a growing threat to international peace and security.”</p><p>She reiterated a longtime FAO warning: “There is no food security without peace, and no peace without food security.”»</p><p><a href="https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/un-chief-warns-climate-chaos-and-food-crises-threaten-global-peace-empty-bellies-fuel-unrest" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">pbs.org/newshour/world/un-chie</span><span class="invisible">f-warns-climate-chaos-and-food-crises-threaten-global-peace-empty-bellies-fuel-unrest</span></a></p><p>This morning I saw a post here by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://climatejustice.social/@breadandcircuses" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>breadandcircuses</span></a></span> about how reporting often doesn't tally climate effects as climate effects.

It feels like our approach must be wrong, that at the scale we're talking about, you can't solve these things by sending individual human beings out to little bits of the edge. </p><p>Are we producing firemen at the right rate? Are people seeing the need and rushing to become firemen, or are they seeing the deaths and avoiding it. Are we going to run out of firemen? </p><p>Are we going to need more and more airplanes? </p><p>This is like its own little war. And, like if it were a war, I would like to see graphs that show us how much territory has been ceded and how much remains. How much grows back in between onslaughts, and a kind of progress bar until we don't have any more forest.</p><p>Not even to mention a progress bar of our various sources of oxygen. We're deoxygenating the ocean, and that's taking a toll on things. We're chopping down rainforests. How many of these can we bear before we literally start changing the oxygen content of the atmosphere?</p><p>Just looking at these pictures it feels like anyone who's talking what's the world will look like in 2100 it's just plain crazy. Who could possibly be here still to see it? Surely this is diminishing key resources at a rate that cannot sustain us. How could there possibly be 75 more of these summers left in Canada? Or the world?</p><p>And is there an effect here, like the air pollution aerosol effect, where we're getting some perverse BENEFIT from the smoke, such that if/when we put these out we're going to be in worse shape for the lack of aerosols because we've come to rely on the reflectivity, thinking we've got climate under control, only to find we were relying on forest fires to mess up our measurements, and that other getting things under control was mirage.</p><p>In my mind, I keep wanting to see that they've carved gaps into the forests, dividing them into a grid, with something flame proof in between, so that the fires can't spread more than a certain amount before hitting a firewall. Yeah, I presume that would really hurt animal life. Lots of stuff needs to migrate across those boundaries on a regular basis. So probably not a practical solution. At some point though, you have to ask whether the fires are going to hurt them worse. I don't see discussion of these kinds of things. </p><p>We need people trained with career specialties in these areas, how many not to burden them with debt. The points to how badly we as a public need education, if we are going to survive things. We need to stop treating education like it is a personal indulgence. We should have whole schools for people we're going to solve these problems, or think tanks. </p><p>Instead we have think tanks for how we're going to make people believe these problems are not here. Let's just make that illegal, a crime against humanity, sieze the money they've taken orchestrating this fiasco, and use it for better purposes.</p><p>I don't know if these are even the right questions. They are the things that occur to me when I look at pictures like this, but I'm just one random person. We need a more robust discussion among more people to make sure that things are not being overlooked, both problems and suggestions about how to solve them. </p><p>I feel like the media is failing us by just seeing these things, shrugging, and moving on to hockey scores or some other trivial matter. I wish that the world could be about trivial matters, but I can only do that with a firm foundation. And right now there's a war going on that is not being adequately talked about, and therefore also not adequately prioritized.</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/fires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fires</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/wildfires" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wildfires</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCrisis</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/collapse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>collapse</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/education" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>education</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>research</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateResponse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateResponse</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/media" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>media</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journalism</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/JournalismFail" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JournalismFail</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/society" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>society</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/LateStageCapitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LateStageCapitalism</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateMetrics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateMetrics</span></a></p>

I know Fahrenheit is not a popular scale, but a lot of serious badnesses happening in the US or due to us politics, and we reason in Fahrenheit degrees, so the numbers would look slightly larger if expressed that way. </p><p>But anyway you cut it, regular people here 1.5° or 2° and they think about the fact that the temperature is going to change by 20° between daytime and night, so it sounds pathetically small and not like an existential threat. More like something that doesn't even affect whether to wear a sweater or click on the air conditioner. </p><p>We need a scale of badness that is not followed by a little raised circle, so that it doesn't evoke familiar and comfortable senses of small temperature differential. It's not that I don't understand the difference between global average temperature and local temperature variation, but I am convinced that the populace does not grasp why this matters so much.</p><p>People do understand about the Richter scale, even though many of them don't understand log scales at all. They got that one digit numbers are scary because the only time they hear these one digit numbers are to measure earthquakes, so they don't try to compare them to other things in their lives. The same for category of storm. </p><p>We need to label the kind of quality of life we're talking about. It needs to simple and understandable things associated with it. Things that will be lost. Ready availability of food. The ability to fly places without dangerous turbulence. The ability to spend time outdoors. </p><p>Watchers of Star Trek understand this. They understand that a class M planet, even though nobody knows what the other letters are, is habitable. They understand that other letters probably aren't. They don't bargain with this classification. </p><p>Another property of the use of Celsius is that we measure it in decimal gradations. No one talks about category 4.2 storms. They just fall over from category 4 to category 5. That loses some nuance, but it also makes it sound like a bigger deal and not something where you say "well, maybe 4.1 isn't that much worse than four", which I mentioned because you hear a lot of people bargaining about small increments like 1.5 versus 1.6°C. it sounds small, but worse than that, it tolerates bargaining and delayism. </p><p>Denialists like to point to dire predictions that didn't come true because they're looking for the end of the world and the world goes on. We don't have any nouns that name the end of a lifestyle, or various kinds of stabilities that we care about. Scientists keep naming these by itty bitty fractions and assuming that it will have consequence to listeners on the evening news. But we have done insufficient training for people to be able to hear that.</p><p>There's a lot we cannot change about the climate trajectory that we're on, but even now we can still change the terminology, make it more concrete, make it more qualitative than quantitative, tie it to things that people care about. Regular people on the street do not care about numbers. That sounds almost nonsensical because they use them all the time, but they also have jokes about how little algebra classes helped them, how little they've used math in the world.</p><p>It's not that I think people are stupid. They actually do math in order to calculate all kinds of stats about sports, because they care about sports, and they understand how these numbers relate to things that they care about in sports. But they don't see that as a general concept, as the same kind of thing that goes on in climate science. It's a special case that they've been taught matters. They've been telling how to think about it. </p><p>We did not teach people why any of this stuff matters. They have a general sense of foreboding, but no one is giving them the time on TV or in schools to really link up enough to understand it. </p><p>I think a change in the terminology, something to acknowledge our qualities of existence, would be helpful. The NatGeo TV special is what I always come back to on this, Six Degrees Could Change The World. It was a god attempt. But an isolated event, so ephemeral and underappreciated for the insight it had in how to conceive the problem and how to express it. We need more like that. </p><p><a href="https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EU5tUY3W3WI" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">m.youtube.com/watch?v=EU5tUY3W</span><span class="invisible">3WI</span></a></p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/terminology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>terminology</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateDenial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateDenial</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/celsius" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>celsius</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/fahrenheit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fahrenheit</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/measurement" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>measurement</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/perception" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>perception</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/temperature" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>temperature</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journalism</span></a></p>
PaulaToThePeople<p>My current theory about <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCommunication</span></a>.</p><p>Very simplified of course.<br>Communicating the urgency is a tactic that works with fear and (in extreme cases, which are not rare) leads to petrification and denial.<br>Communicating the doability works with hope and (in extreme cases) leads to apathy.</p><p>The first tactic is I believe the main tactic used in activism ("march now or swim later").<br>The second is sometimes used by the media ("Scientists say there is still hope for the climate"). This lets people believe they don't have to do anything anyway.</p><p>And I believe the combination of the two has the worst effects. People believe "if its really that bad, I can't do anything about it anyway and if it's not, there are people working on solutions".<br>So they distract themselves.</p><p>The third tactic however - communicating a positive vision, which inspires people to act - is used by nobody or way too little.</p><p>I admit, I'm not doing a good job either. I mainly communicate the urgency too, to process my own fear.<br>I'll try to learn more about <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimatePsychology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimatePsychology</span></a> and do better.</p>

That's how the media covers it.</p><p>Political power is a complicated beast but the most malleable element is speech. We aren't completely hampered in our ability to communicate, and we must learn to speak about this system as a connected thing.</p><p>It isn't sufficient to take action on climate if we also take inaction (non-action) or unaction (undoing action) on climate because we aren't helping anything by isolated ceremony, only by net change.</p><p>The notion of a carbon credit, for example, is a metaphor. The idea that it's OK to mess up the climate if you also do a dance elsewhere to unmess it. Then you've just done nothing. That might seem harmless to some, but we need to do more than nothing. We need to be applying the positive side of that WITHOUT the negative side because neutrality will not save us, only the aggregation of many positives will save us.</p><p>Every time someone does something they think cancels, they are saying they think it's possible to stand outside of the system, to have done their part and to be able to safely wait for others to do their part. </p><p>Like trying to save a burning building by saying it's OK to light a few matches if you also pour a few cans of water elsewhere in the building. Like you can pour water on the part of the fire that is your own apartment and then sit comfortably in your wet living room waiting for the people downstairs to put out their own apartments, as if somehow you on the twelfth floor need only to put out your own apartment and will be safe from the building falling.</p><p>We cover the news as if these actions occur in isolation, not as part of any coherent whole. We need to cover it like the war that it is, like the war that we are losing, so that we are not surprised when in fact we do lose, as if no one had told us.</p><p><a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>climate</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/media" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>media</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journalism</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ClimateCommunication" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ClimateCommunication</span></a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/EarthDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EarthDay</span></a></p>
