Last night I went to the last of the 3 part talks about climate change at the Center For Brooklyn History. This one was about solutions from people in law, government & science. The scientist is behind the pillar, but here is a pic of his new book. Thanks @bklynlibrary.bsky.social

Been working my through this book, it is technical, but I didn't need my Masters in Environmental Studies to navigate the pages. As a corporate type with an expertise in risk, North makes a great case for planning and adaptation. Both Masters, @jessemkeenan.com are worth a follow.
I highly recommend North (2025), by climate adaptation expert @jessemkeenan.com of Tulane. It'd be an excellent textbook for a college-level course on climate change adaptation. It's quite technical, but the last 5% is a very readable and hopeful cli-fi section on a post-climate America in 2079.
“Andreanecia M. Morris, executive director of HousingNOLA, a partnership between community leaders and organizations working on New Orleans' affordable housing crisis, says while these findings may shock outsiders, local stakeholders have been sounding the alarm for the past 20 years.”
"We've been saying this for a while, and we've been saying this to the global community ... to environmental justice advocates, to climate change activists, we've been saying: The fight is here in Louisiana," Andreanecia Morris www.realtor.com/news/trends/...
