I was just added to someone’s list called “engaged scientists in climate change” and for a minute, I misread it as “enraged scientists in climate change” … which would probably be 100% accurate …

I want to be added to that list too. Rage isn’t really my thing, but it’s impossible not to be enraged at the harm that is being done to people, science, and our planet.
“Hope has two beautiful daughters; their names are Anger and Courage. Anger at the way things are, and Courage to see that they do not remain as they are.” is one of my favourite quotes. Often attributed to Saint Augustine, though the source is unknown.
My students just read your text, "How to Talk About Climate Change" in a whole unit about the environment in my AP English Lang class. I'll keep teaching it because I'm an enraged teacher.

We need to fight for a habitable planet like all future generations depend on us for their very survival because... they do!
