<https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_KA9gR6zLeG-8oxVqsQjpDx4y89DhU-s>This 
episode with Dana R fisher is the unofficial part 2 of 3 looking at the 
sociological side of collective action, while we try to slow the sinking 
of the Titanic, to make homes on the lifeboats.
The rub in all this is that Dana’s message is not dissimilar from Roger 
Hallam’s (unofficial part 1). She agrees that millions will likely die 
before the so-called Anthroshift kicks in and we get the cascade of 
structural policies we need to respond en masse to the crisis. The 
detail in all we discuss is in Dana’s new book, ‘Saving Ourselves - From 
Climate Shocks To Climate Action’. https://amzn.to/49FkoxM

If you want a close up lens on the structural failures to date, coupled 
with the determination of those in power to ignore the loud and clear 
science, then please do consider buying my book COPOUT. I’ve had great 
feedback from climate luminaries such as Sir David King, Bill McKibben, 
Alice Hill, Rupert Read, and others. https://amzn.to/3wgep3R

interviews can bet processed. Thanks again.

*Saving Ourselves: From Climate Shocks to Climate Action (Society and 
the Environment) Hardcover – February 13, 2024*
by Dana R. Fisher

We've known for decades that climate change is an existential crisis. 
For just as long, we've seen the complete failure of our institutions to 
rise to the challenge. Governments have struggled to meet even modest 
goals. Fossil fuel interests maintain a stranglehold on political and 
economic power. Even though we have seen growing concern from everyday 
people, civil society has succeeded only in pressuring decision makers 
to adopt watered-down policies. All the while, the climate crisis 
worsens. Is there any hope of achieving the systemic change we need?

Dana R. Fisher argues that there is a realistic path forward for climate 
action―but only through mass mobilization that responds to the growing 
severity and frequency of disastrous events. She assesses the current 
state of affairs and shows why public policy and private-sector efforts 
have been ineffective. Spurred by this lack of progress, climate 
activism has become increasingly confrontational. Fisher examines the 
radical flank of the climate movement: its emergence and growth, its use 
of direct action, and how it might evolve as the climate crisis worsens. 
She considers when and how activism is most successful, identifying the 
importance of creating community, capitalizing on shocking moments, and 
cultivating resilience. Clear-eyed yet optimistic, Saving Ourselves 
offers timely insights on how social movements can take power back from 
deeply entrenched interests and open windows of opportunity for 
transformative climate action.

Facing Future
Feb 23, 2024  #ClimateBreakdown #TomRiley #PaulBeckwith
What will the planet be like in 10 years or 20 years? #ClimateBreakdown 
is upon us, and critical systems are on the verge of failure.  Will 
young people plan their lives based on the destructive paradigm of 
endless growth, and consumerism? Or will they see themselves as leaders 
in a movement to adapt to the changing conditions that are in the 
pipeline? What role will AI play in our future?
#TomRiley, former NASA engineer and author of three climate detective 
novels, #PaulBeckwith and host, Dale Walkonen explore the how stories 
can inspire necessary and ethical action.

Tom's latest novel, Dark Heat, is available on

note: Abigail Disney, not the CEO of Disney, opposes the use of private 
jets.

/*February 25, 2005 */
February 25, 2005: In a piece on state-level efforts to address carbon 
pollution, the Boston Phoenix's Deirdre Fulton notes:

    "Though the United States accounts for almost 25 percent — more than
    any other single country — of the world’s global-warming emissions,
    advocates say there’s been little federal action on this issue since
    at least 2001. That’s when George W. Bush, echoing concerns that had
    also been voiced by his predecessor Bill Clinton, opted out of
    Kyoto, citing national economic concerns and calling on developing
    nations to commit to greater sacrifices than they do under the
    current agreement. No wonder China, India, Mexico, and Brazil signed
    on, say US and Australian leaders. They have much less to lose as
    more stringent emissions regulations go into effect for other
    nations worldwide.

    "The US position may or may not be fair, but we do know this much:
    it doesn’t move us very far toward addressing the looming problem of
    global warming. And that makes regional and state-level efforts all
    the more important."
