MarkBrigham , 3 months ago @bluejekyll @breadandcircuses Agree. Bread has done a good job smacking us upside the head. And also agree that every post that contains doomist information should and inspire and segue to actions we can take. Empower, don't demoralize. New research (referenced herein: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/beyond-the-doom-and-gloom-heres-how-to-stimulate-climate-action/) suggests doomerism increases social media sharing, but decreases propensity to act. We need more action, not more sharing of doomerism. #ClimateAction #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #scicomm
