<b>Katharine Hayhoe on Hope and Healing</b><br>
Sept 23, 2021<br>
Climate One<br>
Despite her identity as an evangelical, climate scientist Katharine
Hayhoe doesn't accept global warming on faith; she crunches the
data, analyzes the models, and helps engineers, city managers and
ecologists quantify the impacts. In her new book, Saving Us: A
Climate Scientist’s Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World,
Hayhoe argues that when it comes to changing hearts and minds, facts
are only one part of the equation; we need to find shared values in
order to connect our unique identities to collective action. Yet in
light of the latest, bleakest UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change report — which has been called a “code red for humanity” —
where does Hayhoe still manage to find hope? Join us for a
conversation with this United Nations Champion of the Earth and one
of Time ’s 100 Most Influential People.<br>

<b>Saving Us: A Climate Scientist's Case for Hope and Healing in a
Divided World</b> Hardcover – September 21, 2021<br>
“An optimistic view on why collective action is still possible—and
how it can be realized.” —The New York Times<br>
<br>
“A must-read if we’re serious about enacting positive change from
the ground up, in communities, and through human connections and
human emotions.” —Margaret Atwood, Twitter<br>
<br>
United Nations Champion of the Earth, climate scientist, and
evangelical Christian Katharine Hayhoe changes the debate on how we
can save our future.<br>
<br>
Called “one of the nation's most effective communicators on climate
change” by The New York Times, Katharine Hayhoe knows how to
navigate all sides of the conversation on our changing planet. A
Canadian climate scientist living in Texas, she negotiates distrust
of data, indifference to imminent threats, and resistance to
proposed solutions with ease. Over the past fifteen years Hayhoe has
found that the most important thing we can do to address climate
change is talk about it—and she wants to teach you how.<br>
<br>
In Saving Us, Hayhoe argues that when it comes to changing hearts
and minds, facts are only one part of the equation. We need to find
shared values in order to connect our unique identities to
collective action. This is not another doomsday narrative about a
planet on fire. It is a multilayered look at science, faith, and
human psychology, from an icon in her field—recently named chief
scientist at The Nature Conservancy.<br>
<br>
Drawing on interdisciplinary research and personal stories, Hayhoe
shows that small conversations can have astonishing results. Saving
Us leaves us with the tools to open a dialogue with your loved ones
about how we all can play a role in pushing forward for change.<br>

<b>HARVARD STUDY: MELTING POLAR ICE IS PHYSICALLY WARPING THE PLANET</b><b><br>
</b><b>AS ICE MELTS, THE CRUST SEEMS TO WARP FOR HUNDREDS OF MILES.</b><b><br>
</b>Sept 23, 2021<br>
by DAN ROBITZSKI<br>
As rising temperatures melt Arctic ice at an alarming rate, the
resulting rise in the sea level stands to reshape coastlines around
the world. But the effects on the planet itself may be even more
dramatic, according to a new study on how melting ice physically
reshapes the Earth’s crust.<br>
<br>
The outermost layer of our planet is surprisingly elastic, according
to research published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters
last month. In the study, Harvard scientists discovered that the
crust rebounds outward after the ice on top of it melts away, but
doesn’t always return to a perfectly spherical shape.<br>
<br>
The study shows that these deformations are not only larger than
scientists thought, but also that they can have significant
influences on ecosystems in an area for thousands of years.<br>
<br>
Still Recovering<br>
For example, parts of the crust around the Arctic are still
expanding like an extremely slow balloon after the weight of the ice
age — which ended 11,000 years ago — was lifted off of it. As even
more ice melts away thanks to climate change, the expansions and
warping effects are compounded, creating an increasingly-complex
landscape...<br>

<b>The Global Fingerprint of Modern Ice-Mass Loss on 3-D Crustal
Motion</b><br>
<b>Abstract</b><br>
<blockquote>Crustal motion generated by rapid ice-mass loss from
Earth's glaciers and ice sheets has previously been considered in
Global Navigational Satellite System (GNSS) analyses and numerical
models across regions of ice retreat. However, the fingerprint of
ice-mass loss is not limited to glaciated areas, but is
characterized by a global pattern of 3-D crustal deformation. We
compute “far-field” vertical and horizontal deformation rates that
occurred in response to early 21st century mass flux from the
Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets, global glaciers and ice caps,
and associated ocean loading. We demonstrate that mass changes in
the Greenland Ice Sheet and high latitude glacier systems each
generated average crustal motion of 0.1–0.4 mm/yr across much of
the Northern Hemisphere, with significant year-to-year variability
in magnitude and direction. Horizontal motions associated with
ice-mass loss exceed vertical rates in many far-field areas, and
both should be considered in future analysis of GNSS measurements.<br>
</blockquote>
<b><br>
</b><b>Plain Language Summary</b><br>
<blockquote>As ice sheets and glaciers melt and water is
redistributed to the global oceans, the Earth's crust deforms,
generating a complex pattern of 3-D motions at Earth's surface. In
this study, we use satellite-derived constraints on early 21st
century ice-mass balance of the Greenland and Antarctic Ice Sheets
and a global database of mountain glaciers and ice caps, to
predict how the crust has deformed over the last two decades. We
show that, rather than only being localized to regions of ice
loss, melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet and Arctic glaciers has
caused significant horizontal and vertical deformation of the
crust that extends over much of the Northern Hemisphere. This 3-D
surface motion is on average several tenths of a millimeter per
year, and it varies significantly year-to-year. We conclude that
future work analyzing measurements of crustal motion (across
various fields in Earth science) should correct for the
deformation associated with modern ice-mass loss at sites distant
from melting ice.<br>

[about trees that have burned. ]<br>
<b>Outpaced: Wildfire control projects are burning up before they
can even start</b><br>
In California forests, climate change is moving faster than climate
adaptation.<br>
- -<br>
California has dramatically ramped up its spending on wildfire
resilience over the last few years, planning forest thinning and
prescribed burns in the places most at risk of burning. Officials
have credited recently completed projects with saving thousands of
homes. But even though the state is moving quickly, fires are moving
even faster.<br>
<br>
Blazes this year have burned portions of at least 11 forest
protection projects funded by the state of California before they
even had a chance to get started. That number may be as high as 20
when all of this season’s fires have been accounted for, said Angela
Avery, executive officer of the Sierra Nevada Conservancy, a state
agency leading efforts to protect natural ecosystems. <br>
<br>
Not included in that estimate are the many planned projects on
private and federal land. The Eldorado National Forest had planned
to perform forest health work — tree thinning, brush clearing, and
prescribed burns — on 45,000 acres that the Caldor Fire covered this
summer. And the Forest Service has not yet tallied up the number of
planned hazardous fuels reduction projects burned by the
200,000-acre Monument Fire and 120,000-acre McFarland Fire in the
Shasta-Trinity National Forest, or the 190,000-acre River Complex in
the Klamath National Forest — the list goes on and on...<br>
- -<br>
For Marsolais, the Eldorado Forest Supervisor, the biggest problem
is the lack of businesses to do the work on the ground, and make use
of the wood coming out of the forests. There’s currently no market
for trees salvaged from fires. The timber mills have more logs than
they can process coming in from torched private timberland. So
workers pile up enormous mounds of brush and logs, then burn them.<br>
