Is it getting warmer in here?
One of the reasons I like "nonviolence" as a catch-all organizing principle is that it let you range across to some of the root issues that need to be addressed. One of these is the climatic effects that humans are having upon the Earth. The New Yorker has been running some articles: check out part one of Elizabeth Kolbert's The Climate of Man (part two is here).
One of the more useful set of links and discussions I've read lately comes from a post titled Climate Change Activism on a blog called The Public Quaker. It's not enough to know that the climate is going to hell in a handbasket and shouting the warnings out from the rooftops is often ineffective. The PQ talks about how we can help get a movement together that motivates people to build the world we want. Cool stuff and she has links to the work of others as well.
