A quote by Greta Thunberg stating that, "The one thing we need more than hope is actoin. Once we start to act, hope is everywhere." It's in white font on a blue sky background with puffy white clouds.
Nearly every panel I spoke on this year ended with the same question: "What gives you hope?"
My friends, that question expired years ago. (If you need receipts, my book Saving Us is literally a 300-page answer.)
The real question is: How are you PRACTICING hope?
Because Greta is right ..

Nature examines some of the trends with global universities: the growth of higher education, especially in less-wealthy nations; the geopolitical forces created by and shaping higher education; and how all this affects who gets to learn and what they are taught. #Academicsky 🧪
DHS is barring disaster-relief orgs that receive FEMA money from offering assistance to undocumented people. Shelters, food assistance, search and rescue. A lot of these groups are faith-based, which "could create constitutional concerns." www.washingtonpost.com/weather/2025...

A line graph of world newspaper coverage of climate change or global warming from 2004 to 2025 in continents around the world.
Newspaper coverage of climate change around the globe dropped 6% from May to June 2025 -- and by 28% compared to June 2024, despite increasing frequency and severity of climate-fueled extreme weather events.

We need to name the storms after politicians and fossil fuel corporations who for decades have 💯 known that burning fossil fuels leads to catastrophic storm events.
When politicians call an extreme weather event that kills children and causes widespread devastation "an act of God" it's rarely a statement of deep faith. It's just a way of asserting virtue while denying responsibility for their own actions that contributed to the event.

The climate crisis affects, national security, the economy, and most people’s quality of life. Why stop reporting? Sounds like you are afraid @huffpost.com
Dog on leash in snow on a river with low sunshine.
Finally enough snow and frozen river ice to ski on. I relocated back to New England in 2018 and I really miss the winters with snow pack and backyard skiing. I can’t afford to pay the outrageous prices for a lift ticket so I relay on natural snow. ❄️✌🏼❄️
We need to get you and Paul to visit New England some time.
@Arborholic I wish I was here for a longer visit so I could sneak over to see you!!
