For my American friends... anyone interested in environmental writing (both non-fic and fiction), heads up that #OrionMagazine are running an environmental #writers workshop June 15th to 20th in Rhinebeck, New York.

#WritersHelpingWriters #clifi #EnvironmentalWriters #ClimateFiction #ClimateScience #ClimateCommunicators
Highlights from the poll here. Looks like #ClimateCommunicators have a job to do: convincing everyone that electrifying everything is *cool*, for instance. Countering the decades-long #brainwashing around "cooking with gas" and "vroom vroom".
It always pays to emphasize just how dirty #FossilFuels are with their toxic and radioactive components.
Large shares of Americans support the U.S. taking steps to address global climate change and prioritize renewable energy development in the country. Still, fewer than half are ready to phase out fossil fuels completely and 59% oppose ending the production of gas-powered cars.
