SUMMARY:The Language of Climate Politics in the 2024 Election
DESCRIPTION:FREE and Open to The Public for Climate Week NYC! \nHow should we talk about climate change in the crucible of the 2024 elections? How are the Republican and Democratic candidates for President talking about climate science\, economics\, technology\, and politics — and what can we learn from the ways their rhetoric and their policies are being covered\, or not covered\, in the press? \nJoin Genevieve Guenther\, author of The Language of Climate Politics: Fossil-Fuel Propaganda and How to Fight It\, along with Kendra Pierre-Louis\, Bill Mckibben\, and Amy Westervelt in an exciting Climate Week NYC discussion of these urgent questions. \nPanelists\nGenevieve Guenther is Affiliate Faculty at The New School\, the Founding Director of End Climate Silence\, a climate news-media advocacy group\, and the author of The Language of Climate Politics: Fossil Fuel Propaganda and How to Fight It. Visit her at genevieveguenther.com. \nKendra Pierre-Louis is an award-winning climate reporter with Bloomberg.

People who care about the future will cherish this smart volume\, which will turn them into far more effective advocates; it is a genuine gift to the world.”\n—Bill McKibben\, author of The End of Nature \n“This is a brave\, compelling\, and necessary book. Guenther blasts away the most persistent myths of the climate crisis…Guenther knows her subject and is a fabulous bullshit detector. Reading The Language of Climate Politics is an excellent way to arm yourself for the fight for a better future.”\n—Jeff Goodell\, author of the New York Times bestseller The Heat Will Kill You First \n“In this genius book\, Dr. Genevieve Guenther takes the whole overwhelming universe of fossil fuel propaganda and distills it to six key words and one key narrative\, exposing the rhetorical tricks used so effectively by the various powers obstructing climate action and thus ridding them of their power entirely.”\n—Amy Westervelt\, Investigative Climate Journalist\, Founder\, Drilled Media \n“The primary obstacle to tackling the climate crisis is political\, not technological. And the political battle has become a war of words. In this important book\, Genevieve Guenther navigates the battlefield with insight and wit\, expertly elucidating the ways in which the modern climate discourse has been polluted by bad actors with an agenda of business-as-usual dependence on fossil fuels.”\n—Michael E. Mann\, Presidential Distinguished Professor of Earth & Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania and author of Our Fragile Moment

SUMMARY:Cause Célèbre Productions Presents: Someone is Sending a Message
DESCRIPTION:Join Ethical NYC and Cause Celebre Productions for an unforgettable play with Broadway actors and Tony Award-winners including Roberta Wallach\, Penny Fuller\, and James Naughton! \nWritten by Susan Charlotte • Directed by Antony Marsellis \nSomeone is Sending a Message is based on a true story of persistence and hope in the face of adversity–a story that revolves around a courageous young man named Nick Springer. It’s also the story of a painter named Sheila\, a friend of Nick who is at a crossroads in her art and in her life. \nSuddenly she receives a phone call: What do you mean Nick is dead? \nThe same Nick she spoke with two weeks ago\, who she had known since he was 13. The same Nick who had contracted Meningitis at camp and\, despite quadruple amputations\, became a Paralympic Gold Medalist\, an international advocate for life\, survival\, vaccination\, and a national hero. Nick never let any obstacle get in his way\, but while swimming in a friend’s pool his heart gave out. \nSheila turns to Facebook to learn more about what happened\, where hundreds of people have shared messages. Strangely\, every time she tries to post her own\, words appear on her screen: ​ \nSomeone is sending a message. \nSo begins Sheila’s surrealistic journey\, so affected by Nick’s extraordinary life and unexpected death that she begins to face the obstacles in her own life\, make sense of its twists and turns\, and come to terms with the death of her brother\, who was also in his 30s. Sheila stares at the screen as feelings from her past appear alongside the messages from Nick’s friends\, the two worlds overlapping. Perhaps there is a message for her. \nSuddenly one appears: \nLife goes on. With or without you. You can either shut down or join in. \nIt’s from Nick! Sheila turns and faces her incomplete canvas\, and is able\, at last\, to add the final brushstrokes. \nTickets\n$25 – Click to Purchase on Eventbrite

This panel will explore the intergenerational modes and methods that youth and elders have employed\, in connecting across their generational divides for this global movement. \nDialogue will aim to reveal some of the struggles\, frustrations\, joys and learnings from this cross generational collaboration. While different generations may be coming from different points of reference\, different inspirational motivation\, and different stylistic tendencies\, how are they implementing solidarity\, and guiding themselves modalities of curious and compassionate interactivity and care\, with a common mission? In climate justice circles\, this summer has been “the summer of heat.” How are they each navigating the ethical dilemmas they confront in the world through this movement? \nPanelists represent Third Act and Fridays For Future (two organizations that Ethical NYC partners with\, to support this Climate Justice Movement)\, as well as No Brooklyn Pipeline\, and Climate Families. \nAfter the platform\, there will be zoom break out groups for the audience to gather in small discussion groups\, and look at how your communities foster intergenerational connection and collaboration\, and also how your communities approach the global ethical imperative of climate justice involvement. \nPanelists moderated by AEU President and Science Researcher Khandra Sears include: Helen Mancini (high school ~ Fridays for Future)\, Adérìnsọ́lá Marian Babawale (college ~ Fridays for Future Alum\, No Brooklyn Pipeline)\, Pat Almonrode (Third Act)\, Eliza Clark (Climate Families)\, and Monica Weiss (Third Act). \nThis forum is open to all humans\, so we ask all interested people to amplify it on social media platforms.

He lives on the Upper West Side with his wife\, Susan Gargiulo\, and is active in local Democratic politics. \nEliza Clark is from New York City and lives in Manhattan with her husband and three daughters.

Currently\, Khandra works at UMSOM as part of a research team that develops live oral vaccines primarily against non-typhoidal strains of Salmonella enterica but also against other enteric bacteria. Since gastroenteric infections are still a leading cause of illness and death in children in resource-limited regions\, she takes pride in the fact that she is working to address this issue and ultimately improve human lives.

SUMMARY:October Book Club with Carey Russell: An Introduction to 'A Sand County Almanac' by Aldo Leopold (Online)
DESCRIPTION:In his introduction to the 1987 edition of A Sand County Almanac\, Robert Finch writes: \nNo other single book of American nature writing – with the exception of Walden – has achieved such lasting stature as A Sand County Almanac. Since it was first published by Oxford in 1949…it has become an established classic in the field…and providing the core of modern conservation ethics. \nTrue to its name “The Almanac”\, as many call it for short\, is a collection of brief essays and journal entries\, divided into three sections. Our October book club meeting\, led by our friend\, October 27th Sunday Platform speaker\, and DendroLab founder Carey Russell\, will examine selected readings from each section to provide an overview of the book’s content and major themes. \nPlease feel free to read these in advance\, or join us without\, as several will be read aloud during the online event. Please note that page numbers are intentionally not included\, since these can vary by edition. \nTogether we’ll discuss the following selected readings: \n\nForeword\nFrom Part I: December (including “Home Range”\, “Pines Above the Snow”\, and “65290”)\nFrom Part II: Thinking Like a Mountain (found within the section Arizona and New Mexico)\nFrom Part III: The Land Ethic (including “The Ethical Sequence”\, “The Community Concept”\, and “The Ecological Conscience”)\n\nRSVP to Join Online\nClick Here to RSVP to Join via Zoom \nAbout Host Carey Russell\n \nCarey is a naturalist\, photographer\, and filmmaker.
