Save Our Happy Place - 🌎 Take Simple Climate Action
Happy New Year Sunshine! I hope 2023 has treated you well thus far and you had the opportunity to rest, recuperate and have a little fun over the holidays. Instead of getting swept away in the ambition, pressure, and subsequent disappointment of setting resolutions, let’s take a moment to look forward to what 2023 may bring. This week we're being joined by Gabriela Angueira, Avery Nunn, & Claire Thompson of Grist/Fix to share with us predictions for the climate movement in 2023. There are truly so many reasons to be hopeful and optimistic about the progress that will be made in the coming year. Foretellings for 2023We asked climate and environmental justice experts to share their forecasts for the coming year.By: Gabriela Aoun Angueira, Avery Schuyler Nunn, & Claire Elise Thompson of Grist/FixWe took a look back at some of the biggest climate stories from the past year and asked 23 experts to forecast what 2023 holds in a few key areas: water, ecosystems, politics and policy, mitigation and adaptation, technology, and business. Their predictions provide a glimpse of what progress could look like in the months ahead, and a rubric for measuring success. Water🔮 A critical juncture for water security
Western states must find common ground in managing the Colorado River Nature-based solutions and Indigenous input will make 2023 a turning point Data-driven technology will shape how we use water Ecosystems🔮 The next wave of conservation
2023 will bring more environmental threats — and more money for solutions. Wetlands (finally) get the attention they deserve Reforestation will uplift frontline communities Politics & Policy🔮 Political momentum for climate and climate justice
A new EPA office could mean additional protections for vulnerable communities The midterm results will drive progress at the state and local levels Bipartisanship and pragmatism will shape climate policies Activists will pressure the U.S. to ‘walk the talk’ after COP27 SCOTUS will complicate, but not thwart, national EJ initiatives Mitigation & Adaptation🔮 Reactions to a year of climate disasters
People will hold governments accountable Communities will drive a bottom-up transformation in renewables We need to be open to the possibility of relocation We must make bold moves towards resilience Technology🔮 New voices and spending in clean energy
The IRA will supercharge a circular, domestic EV supply chain Tribes will lead the next phase of the EV transition American homes will electrify faster than ever The mining required for clean energy will create new EJ battles Business🔮 Business models that prioritize sustainability
