Hello nature-lovers trapped inside, like spring-drunk snakes itching to leave the hibernaculum! Happy Earth Day! Here are some recent pieces/threads on how we CAN and WILL act collectively to make tomorrow greener, wilder, and more just than today.
First stop: this short op-ed that lays out, in less than 1,000 words, a step-by-step plan for overcoming eco-anxiety and becoming a joyful part of the solution: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/01/10/opinion/sunday/how-to-help-climate-change.html
This thread is about the essay I wrote for Nat Geo imagining a best-case 2070. We need visions of what we are fighting for! https://twitter.com/Emma_Marris/status/1242897963707322370?s=20
I chat about the essay and what we all can do on this Oregon-based radio show, @OPBTOL: https://www.spreaker.com/user/oregonpublicbroadcasting/oregon-writer-imagines-a-better-future?utm_medium=widget&utm_source=user%3A9497079&utm_term=episode_title
Next, consider this pep talk in podcast form! https://twitter.com/Emma_Marris/status/1252634741578231809?s=20
Here s an op ed specifically for scientists and science-adjacent folk about why collective action can be more effective than individual emissions reductions. https://twitter.com/Emma_Marris/status/1252277051614089216?s=20
And finally, this thread includes my thoughts about being an outdoorsy rambler stuck in one place, and includes some tips about how to make your neighborhood walk scratch that wilderness itch. https://twitter.com/Emma_Marris/status/1246490153117306880?s=20
Happy Earth Day! Always remember that our fight is not people vs. nature. People are part of nature. Our estrangement from it is the problem, not the solution.
Our fight is All Of Us Nature vs. those who choose greed over the wellbeing of others. There are more of us who love the world than those who want to burn it up for profit. If we work together, we can change everything.
