"Progress is not based on consumption. Progress is based on fundamental developments of metrics that aren't always tied to consumption." Amasia is back with a new episode of In Our Hands! In this episode, I speak with Akshat Rathi, author and London-based senior reporter for Bloomberg News. He is our first climate journalist, and has an amazing new book out titled "Climate Capitalism." We dive into the intersection of capitalism and the climate crisis, and explore the evolving social responsibility of corporations and the vital role of media representation. https://lnkd.in/gy2PcZTy

As heat waves, storms, droughts and wildfires get worse, at times simply talking about the crisis feels like a wholly insufficient solution. Yet time and time again, we see that straightforward conversations are one of the best ways to share information, find common ground and inspire action. So how can we make our climate conversations really count? For our latest episode, Greg Dalton and Ariana Brocious revisit powerful climate discussions with leaders like Katharine Hayhoe, Meera Subramanian, Faith Kearns, author Anand Giridharadas, Chloe M., and John Cook of Skeptical Science.

Why Public-Private-Philanthropic Partnerships are central to Asia-Pacific's climate action A new report explores the role of PPPPs in Asia-Pacific and how it expands beyond traditional project types and creates innovative funding mechanisms. https://lnkd.in/eRC3Yyfm

More often than not, the enormity of climate change can leave us feeling powerless. It's a problem too big for any one person or organization to tackle alone. However, there is power in collective action. By taking many small steps together, we can make a significant difference. Not only do these steps contribute to the larger goal, but they also help us discover new and innovative ways to address climate change. Let's work together to create a sustainable future for all. #ClimateAction #Sustainability #TogetherWeCan

The future is worth saving, especially for the young and future generations, who are among the most vulnerable groups to the impacts of climate change. Climate change, alongside other environmental threats, continues to affect our lives, livelihoods, and our future. As such, ensuring access to a clean, healthy, and sustainable environment is a basic and fundamental human right for all. Recently at #cop28 , I engaged in a 'Heart to Heart' conversation with Felipe Paullier Olivera, the first United Nations Assistant Secretary-General on Youth and the head of the United Nations Youth office. We shared our thoughts on envisioning the future for the youth amidst the challenges posed by the climate crisis. Additionally, I shared my advice with him on how best to collaborate and work with the youth in the climate space. Let's continue these vital conversations and work together to secure a future where the rights and well-being of the youth and future generations are safeguarded against the impacts of environmental challenges. #ClimateAction #YouthEngagement #SustainableFuture

Here are some climate change books and resources. Today, I would like to share some books and resources that have inspired me and shaped my understanding of the climate crisis: Books: 1. “Little Earth Soldiers” by Grace Stuart Ninsiima 2. “Replenishing the Earth” by Professor Wangari Maathai 3. “Time to Act” by the Christians in Extinction Rebellion Documentaries: 1. “Nomads of Benin – Driven Away by Drought”  2. “Thank You for the Rain” 3. “The Great Green Wall” Online resources: 1. IPCC Reports ( Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) 2. Climate Action Tracker 3. Pan African Climate Justice Alliance Please add more books and resources that have helped you in your work. Let us stay informed and engaged as we work together to address the climate crisis and make this world a better place for present and future generations. #climatechange #climatejustice #sustainability #climateaction

Disinformation multiplied by the power of global social platforms have allowed for climate change action to be delayed. In this dialogue between Shanghai-based Richard Brubaker and Imran Ahmed, we understand better not only how the platforms have allowed for a bigger share of voice of denialism, but also how the content has changed over the last few years. The Center for Countering Digital Hate's in-depth analysis gives a wealth of data on the web of deception that can bring inaction as well as its financial implication (YouTube makes up to $13.4 million a year from channels posting denial), but also some encouraging data that shows that science is making progress at getting the message across (Old Denial Vs New Denial). A must-read for communicators involved in sustainability. https://lnkd.in/ddYG_H6f

"Well, I'll just remind ourselves: David *did* beat Goliath, and we have got right on our side." Sir David King of the Climate Crisis Advisory Group's 2024 annual meeting on our #EarthAtRisk paper, the truly monstrous vested interests trying to stop our progress, and what's needed to reach a kinder, wiser, humbler and more regenerative civilization.

And remember: among other worthy contributions, there's a broad action framework by some of these same authors, on six issues (really 7, including governance and corruption), at six scales (from local to global) and on three timespans (2026, 2030, 2050). It's here: https://lnkd.in/gs9m6PJG. It doesn't matter so much which plan you follow: only that most of us start walking in the right direction. If you can help make it happen at whatever level you can, please do: the world, all life on Earth, the future, and our children all need you.
