概要

The climate crisis. Even if you can’t explain the science, you know it’s here. But no one is giving us the tools and frameworks we need to grapple with it.

The climate crisis is not just about parts per million, or degrees, or dystopias. It’s about the powerful and the wealthy. It’s about surveillance. It’s about your health. It’s about affordability. It’s about media and communications. It’s about immigration. It’s about the food on your plate. It’s about you. About us. About the courage to face history and imagine the future.

So why are we only talking about degrees?

You have a stake in the climate crisis. Come learn about it. Climate Niche is a living collection of interdisciplinary climate conversations. Hear from academics, activists, educators, ecologists, health professionals, and more on their lived expertise. Get the actual picture of what the climate crisis means and how we move forward.

  • Creative Climate Pedagogy with Taiji Nelson

    Creative Climate Pedagogy with Taiji Nelson
    2026/01/25

    As a climate activist, I’m always thinking about how I should engage my peers with climate topics. You can’t spell doom and gloom, or folks will get scared and shut down. But you also can’t revise the inherently terrifying moment we’re in. The future of the climate movement rests in our ability to wrestle with this question… so I wanted to bring on someone who has been experimenting in this world for years.

    Today I sat down with Taiji Nelson, long-time community climate educator (and one of my comrades back home in Pittsburgh!), to chat about why engaging people around climate matters and how to do it effectively. Taiji got his start teaching kids and young adults at Pittsburgh’s Frick Environmental Center, then joined the Carnegie Museum of Natural History to foster interdisciplinary, rural-urban climate connections. Amidst his work, Taiji also had a brief stint on the west coast completing a master’s thesis on arts-based climate engagement. With so much experience learning about climate alongside communities, I thought he might have some answers for me.

  • The US Military & Climate Chaos with Lindsay Koshgarian

    The US Military & Climate Chaos with Lindsay Koshgarian
    2026/01/02

    There’s a lot of places to begin talking about climate chaos. The US military, the biggest institutional fossil fuel emitter in the world, might be a good place to start. Equipped with the largest peacetime budget it’s ever seen, the US military has amassed incredible power and influence… to do what, exactly? Today I sat down with Lindsay Koshgarian, executive director of National Priorities Project, to talk about the military’s role in climate emissions, protecting resources - especially fossil fuels - instead of people, and how we can practice antimilitarism in our everyday lives.
