Event presented by Reimagine Buildings Collective
Friday, August 28th from 12pm-1pm eastern (Virtual)
We're joined by a very special guest host, Mary James the Director of Publications at Passive House Accelerator, for this final meetup of the Summer Reading Club. The readings for this session come from two rockstar climate scientists and communicators, Dr. Kate Marvel and Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson:
"Thinking about Climate on a Dark, Dismal Morning", by Dr. Kate Marvel: https://www.scientificamerican.com/blog/hot-planet/thinking-about-climate-on-a-dark-dismal-morning/
"Is climate change unfolding faster and fiercer than scientists expected?", by Dr. Kate Marvel: https://drawdown.org/insights/is-climate-change-unfolding-faster-and-fiercer-than-scientists-expected
"Be Tenacious on Behalf of Life on Earth", by Dr. Elizabeth Ayana Johnson: https://time.com/6283728/be-tenacious-on-behalf-of-life-on-earth/
BONUS Reading: "Between the Cloister and the World: The Adventurous Life of Mary Ward", by Alexandra Verini: https://sisteracts.substack.com/p/between-the-cloister-and-the-world
Come gather to talk these through, trade takeaways, push back, and figure out which ideas are worth bringing into our work. No quizzes or book reports…just bring a reaction, a question, or a hunch you want to think out loud with people who get it. Haven't done the readings? Join us anyway!
