In October 2015, the team decided to take the daily writings I was posting whenever one of the 17(ish) GOP candidates running to be the Republican nominee for president mentioned climate change and make it a weekly digest.
Climate Week En Review was born.
ICYMI… last week was Florida Climate Week. We are honored that for the 3rd year in a row, we were able to participate in a virtual way. This year, we organized a panel featuring some of the top climate change messengers in the state.
Every day this week, I woke up thinking it was Friday. And every day but today, I was wrong. A long weekend is much-needed, as is the night out of dodge I’m taking in West Virginia with some besties. Before you tune out, tune in to our news of the week.
Alex Bozmoski is the heart of the EcoRight; he’s the fertilizer; he’s the one ensuring its growth. But in case your new to Alex, he is a 20-year veteran of energy and climate policy, and, as alluded to, has spent more than 13 years focusing on building the Ecoright field.
Welcome, October, aka SOUP SEASON. I love soup. I make at least one batch a week, if not two. Chicken and rice with curry and coconut milk. Black bean and pumpkin. Corn chowder. I like soup for any meal of the day (hey, don’t knock it for breakfast). Have a favorite recipe? I’ll take it!
Are you climate changed out after all the news this week, plus New York Climate Week? Well, don’t worry because decorative gourd season is here to add beauty to your life.
I’m not quite sure how we got to this milestone, but here we are! It’s not always easy, but at the end of the day, it’s fun and informative. Here’s to 200 more.
If I ruined the fall weather with my sweater declaration last week, my apologies. I know better than that! So I will tiptoe into October and keep my thoughts on the forecast to myself.
In August, our Engagement Director Angela Larck attended a climate conference at which she ran into today’s guest, Lexi Shultz, whom I used to know back in my days working on Capitol Hill. Angela reconnected me with Lexi, who currently serves as vice president of public affairs at AGU, a global community supporting more than half a million advocates and professionals in the Earth and space sciences.
I know I’m jinxing it, but I’m so pleased with cool nights and mornings and bright sunny days with low humidity. I even wore a sweater the other day but don’t worry, I’m not ready to make the wardrobe switchout yet!
She’s back…
It’s September, which means we are almost at National Clean Energy Week, September 15-19th with both in person and virtual events. And Heather Reams is here to preview it for us, as well as discuss the challenges ahead and what she’s optimistic about in the clean energy front.
I’m back and I have one question: are we in fake fall? I think we are… I’m trying very hard to moderate my excitement. I’m not putting my summer clothes away. I’m not pulling my sweaters out. But I am sleeping with the windows open, leaving the AC off, and am feeling refreshed! Here’s hoping summer days are behind us!
