We just published a new podcast episode of #InOurHands with Nigel Sizer, a globally recognized authority on ecology and development policy, and executive director at Preventing Pandemics at the Source Initiative. 

We discuss everyone's least favorite but most important topic: the connection between pandemics and climate change. Listen or read to learn more (spoiler: deforestation and forest trade are some of the reasons, and we need to fix this).

The next episode of #Futureverse is out! Molly Wood and I interview acclaimed author Edan Lepucki.

We discuss her novel "California" and explore her inspiration for writing climate-infused fiction. We also get into the mosh pit to talk about world-building, flawed characters, apocalyptic scenarios, and the future of storytelling in the face of climate change.

This month is twice as good with April AND May stuff from Amasia and me. And forgive the AI-generated over-the-top image. Happy reading and listening!

The Amasia May 2024 newsletter is out! New from Clarity Movement Co., Corrily, Dialpad, Pique Action, Skillshare and Topanga.io -- and a new #Futureverse podcast episode.

The Amasia April 2024 newsletter is out! News from our friends at Commons, Dialpad, Go1, Pique Action, Scrimba and Skillshare. Plus a new #InOurHands podcast episode.

"There's a huge super majority of people that understands what's happening is human-caused and that we need to take very aggressive action on it."

That is from Miranda Massie, the founder and director of The Climate Museum in New York City. I hope she's right about the super majority. That and much more in our latest #InOurHands podcast episode. 

We discuss her passion for social equity and how it influences her work in raising climate awareness. More on the show about the powerful impact of art and storytelling in taking on the climate crisis.
