Climate Change is not a crisis of science or engineering. The science has been clear for generations.  The solutions have been engineered. What’s missing is human will.    Climate Change is now a crisis of communications.

My magical chatbot where you can find your best action to save your future is profiled here for Earth Day! amny.com/news/earth-day…

“Design is the Trojan Horse for important conversations” — @curiousoctopus Great kickoff to the @aspenideas #climate summit with a discussion on “Cataloging the Past and Shaping the Future: Museums Change the Narrative” #aspenideasclimate

On Tuesday, @coal_and_ice opened at Asia Society in New York! We spoke to @orvilleschell, @gideonmendel, @nicholesobecki, @Jake_Barton, and Song Chao about their contributions to COAL + ICE, hopes for its run, and what they believe makes it special. asiasociety.org/new-york/coal-…

@Vuthric my email is jake@localprojects.com

@Vuthric I designed the 9/11 Museum and others. Now I'm working on an immersive climate experience: you'll part the flood waters of the future, catalyzing action, and saving our future. Any chance you can advise on the water effects? I hear you are the best!

@AndrasKetzer Hi Andras, would you consider doing a quick consult for a high profile climate change project? You can see the concept here, starting at ~40:30, would be grateful for a few hours of your time to work with our developers! svwc.com/media/livestre…

This Thursday @POTUS is going to give a speech about extreme heat and climate change. This is the PERFECT opportunity to declare a climate emergency and go after the Big Oil companies fueling this crisis! Let’s see some bold leadership! subscriber.politicopro.com/article/eenews…

@DoctorVive So scary, thanks for highlighting! It also means kicking IRA adoption into high gear immediately matters!

Right-wing think tanks have written a 920 page plan, which begins day one of a Republican presidency, to dismantle most of the federal government’s work on climate. Make no mistake: this is a battle plan. The war being waged is against our children's future. Elections matter!

@nuttynupur Generous of you to write, and good point! We need to balance the plausible bad future, with the solutions-producing good future!

@Jake_Barton loved your talk at Sub Writers Conference! Specially the climate change part. I was getting numb looking at the visual of the future though. You could highlight bloom more. Perhaps quantifying impact of environmentalists so far? Hope to visit one of your museums 😀

I’ll be sharing an early prototype of a climate change experience during my keynote for @svwriters free livestream at 5:30ET / 2:30 PT svwc.com/media/livestre…

@ayahbdeir @phatanateacha @moleitau I love this! Those were good days, still techno optimist, and amazing to have shared that with you all!

ARE WE ALL DESIGNERS? Google, @moleitau, Local Projects, @jake_barton, littleBits, @ayahbdeir #FCNY

Don’t just cough, organize. We’re going to be at the White House tomorrow to demand President Biden declare a CLIMATE EMERGENCY and stop approving fossil fuel projects like the Mountain Valley Pipeline. 2:00pm, Pennsylvania Avenue, be there. actionnetwork.org/events/biden-s…

MASSIVE: Over 500 advertising and PR agencies have now signed the @CleanCreatives pledge to stop working with fossil fuel companies!! “Every agency still working with fossil fuel clients is putting their reputations on the line,” @duncanwrites thedrum.com/news/2023/04/1…

This is what we need for all our industries that emit carbon-- narrative change that raises social norms for different behaviors.
