Ich bin auf Blue Sky aufgetaucht, um deine & @scully78.bsky.social Analysen zu lesen - bin gespannt!

I created a training in DE and EN on how to speak to people with other opinions on climate.
I think I will make it more General for German speaking audiences

There have been lots of analysis of what is wrong and what is needed, but less of the how, so I am just trying to share from talented organisers with decades of experience on the how from countries facing authoritarianism

With regard to Germany, how are people planning to resist beyond the protests?

As Daniel 's piece was written b4 the election outcome, I think it was fine for then, but now I think practical ways to resist are needed. I am sharing pieces from the best organisers I know in the States and will do from other places as well to cross pollinate.

Not sure which of the 3 references you are pointing to, but @chenoweth.bsky.social and Maria Stephan's research has focused on the efficacy of non-violence approaches to fighting authoritarianism,
More guides & trainingss by seasoned organisers like choosedemocracy.us are what's needed IMHO

63% of Americans support deporting undocumented immigrants so the NYT splashes this on the front page as a mandate to do just this. It becomes urgent—the will of the people. 71% of Americans support universal pre-K and 69% support Medicare For All but this mysteriously provides no such mandate.

I am spending my energy on reaching new audiences to increase people power.
@schulzki-haddouti.bsky.social wrote about my work, www.ews-schoenau.de/energiewende...
I also wrote a longer article with @januspetznik.bsky.social as well as one with Caro Rackete on widening the climate movement

When I attended my first COP as an ex-climate scientist in 2008, I couldn't understand this fascination with 1.5 - 2.0 C.
I knew that we needed to stop warming ASAP; to me it seemed politicians were trying to push the problem further out into the future by choosing such weak targets.

Also, two other things: 1) These temperature targets refer to long term averages, so one year over 1.5°C isn’t reaching that target. 2) 1.5°C is a policy target and not a geophysical target. Nothing magical happens at 1.5°C.

as @davidho.bsky.social & @katharinehayhoe.com remind us,
the past 2 yrs have crossed 1.5 individually, but climatically the threshold is crossed when we've been over 1.5 for a decade
there's nothing special about 1.5 or 2.0 from a climate perspective; these were political decisions made at COPs.
