August means many things to me. Recess (A holdover from my long ago Senate Staffer Era.) Hot weather. (Can it please stay like the forcast in the DMV for the next few days?) Both my brother and my sister’s birthdays. (One Leo and one Virgo.) And of course, at the end of the month, it means a brief respite in my home state of Maine. I’m already counting down the days. (26, in case you’re curious…)

The EcoRight Speaks is back! Welcome to season 11!
If you read Climate Week En Review, you know I’m done with this sweaty summer. And part of the reason I dislike summer is I find it oppressive to do outdoorsy things like hiking and running. Which brings me to our lead off guest.
Climate Week En Review: Still Melting…
Hello from the hub of heat and humidity. (I know… I’m being hyperbolic…) We aren’t even in the worst month yet. August awaits!
Climate Week En Review: I’m out of ways to say it’s hot…
I feel like the ice cream in our cover photo looks… it’s not even that hot temperature wise, but the humidity is killing me. Not to mention, the evenings don’t cool off. I love a pleasantly warm summer day but I want to drape a sweater over my shoulders or toss on a sweatshirt at night. Is that too much to ask?
Climate Week En Review: Sweaty July
Welcome back, readers. Thank you for your kind wishes for a great vacation, which I did indeed have. But I have definitely sweated out some brain cells so if you find any typos, just don’t tell me.
EcoRight Speaks, Season 10 Finale
Season ten is a wrap!
Five years ago, when Price and I started on this podcasting adventure, we thought it would be a fun, short-term project. Now it’s core to what I do and one of the key ways we get the message out about the EcoRight and/or to the EcoRight. It’s both an honor and a bit intimidating to think about that many people listening to my voice week after week… thank you so much for being a fan!
Climate Week En Review: Smoky Mountains, here I come
Happy Vacation Eve from me!
Readers, I’m doing something I don’t often do or ever do, really. I’m taking two full weeks off from work. And what am I going to do in that time, I hear you ask? Well, first, I’m going to play tour guide in D.C. for my friend visiting from the U.K. After a few days of immersing ourselves in all that is the nation’s capital, we are heading to the Smoky Mountains.
Climate Week En Review: Friday the 13th Edition
It's Friday the 13th, which means if a black cat crosses my path, I get to keep it! (I don't make up the cat distribution rules.) Or if I step on a crack in the sidewalk/break a mirror, it's...
EcoRight Speaks, Season 10, Episode 16, featuring retired Senator Bill Frist
What a thrill to be in conversation with today's guest, former Senator Bill Frist from Tennessee. After working for 16 years as a surgeon, specializing in heart and lung transplants, Dr. Frist was...
Climate Week En Review: Come on, June…
My heart is heavy this week at the unexpected loss of one of my cats… but not the one I expected to lose. Fluffy, littermat of Fang, who has graced these pages before, took a sudden turn and declined rapidly. We said goodbye to her on Thursday and are focused on sharing 14 years of cat antics and cuddles.
EcoRight Speaks, Season 10, Episode 15, featuring non-toxic paint entrepreneur, Patrick Hughes
In another chapter of people I met at EarthX, today’s guest is non-toxic paint entrepreneur and guru, Patrick Hughes.
Climate Week En Review: Summer’s Eve
TGIF! It’s the weekend that I keep thinking is Memorial Weekend. “But Chelsea. we had a long weekend last weekend. How can you keep thinking there is another one?” Oh, reader, my sense of time works in mysterious ways.
