Paperback is here! RT if you’re interested in winning a copy. I’ll randomly select someone by Friday.
Was recently profiled in Bostonia magazine alongside several colleagues around campus about folks combining activism and their academic work. Honored to be included among their ranks. bu.edu/articles/2023/…
I've launched the updated Environmental and Climate Justice Syllabus! A few notes on the new syllabus! 1/3 just-environments.org/the-syllabus
Climate-fueled extremes are endangering people everywhere. Why aren't we seeing an immediate response? Because they're only dismantling 1 barrier to action, psychological distance. Lack of efficacy and solution aversion remain; here's how to tackle them: youtube.com/watch?v=nkMIjb…
Americans experience a false social reality by underestimating popular climate policy support by nearly half: "While 66–80% Americans support these policies, Americans estimate the prevalence to only be between 37–43% on average" nature.com/articles/s4146…
So proud of our 2023 cohort earning the certificate in Faith and Ecological Justice from Boston University School of Theology!
So pleased to be included with this fantastic group!
