Riding horses. Spending time with horses. Volunteering time at a π rescue and getting to groom horses and feel their breath on your hands. Feel them exhale and sigh when you curry them and give them scratchies. This is saving me right now.
Second that!
A vote here for Hope Matters. As a professor who teaches about climate in humanities courses, this has been an important book for me to read.
My starter advice: Follow Katherine Hayhoe and mine her starter packs. It is worth joining Bluesky just for her feed.
What a great review and I loved your 15 highlighted sections. Can't wait to read the whole thing. Thanks!
And even worse, when you decide to use your time β which is the most valuable resource you have β to attack people who are saying there is something we can do about it.
Thereβs a non-zero number of men on this platform who do this to me regularly. Including today.

What a great piece by @dkthomp.bsky.social in The Atlantic on our increasing isolation and its disturbing ramifications in the digital age. Just added this to the syllabus for my spring term "Religion and Media" course at Northwestern. Looking forward to discussing this with my GenZ students.
I discovered the world of climate comedy thanks to @maxboykoff.bsky.social & @mattywin.bsky.social - and it is so therapeutic!
Iβd love to curate a starter pack on climate & humour, but I only have 3 accounts, with @belinaraffy.bsky.social.
Baba Brinkman + Chuck Nice arenβt here.
Suggestions? π§΅
Ah, now I see why I did not find you at first. π Welcome to Bluesky, and interesting article on AI. A ray of hope, perhaps? For now, at least.

physics of climate impacts 101:
- Stuff gets hot (worse heatwaves)
- Hot air holds more water vapor (heavier rainfall)
- Hot air is thirstier air (higher drought risk)
- Warm water is hurricane food (stronger storms)
- Hot water expands and hot ice melts (sea level rise)
Are you guys okay? We are watching the news and worried about you and your family.

News coverage detailing the mind-boggling ubiquity of cameras in tracking the current NYC fugitive is a stark lesson in the realities of the dystopian surveillance state & βthe invisible cageβ model imported from China now in the U.S. Yikes. Those who tried to warn us failed. Thanks for trying. π
Wow. Fascinating piece. This group reminds me of the group "God's Gardeners" in Margaret Atwood's novel, MaddAdam.
If you are near Santa Barbara this Monday, please come by UCSB and join us for a lively conversation! Much gratitude to the Iris Committee, the Nature, Ethics, and Technology Program, Lisa Sideris (@lsideris.bsky.social), and the Walter H. Capps Center. π
Folks working in the Eco-Space -- heads up on a climate conference you won't want to miss this June at UCSB: "Crossing Borders, Transgressing Boundaries: Religion, Migration, and Climate Change." See you there! πhttps://www.issrnc.org/conferences/2025-conference/
βBluesky is an echo chamber!β
Our Reply: Echo chamber? Nah, we prefer to call it surround sound for facts.
Join us this Friday night for the Religion, Nature, and Ecology reception at AAR!
