SUMMARY:Turning Things Around at Sustainable Tucson meetng
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTurning Things Around:Harnessing the Power of Science and Communication for a Sustainable Future\n\n\n\nTuesday\, December 9\, 6:00-7:15 pmZoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87001542338?pwd=0aECcfcLeRHT5a1nHnriuihNs9sKgw.1\n\n\n\n“Join us at our December Sustainability Spotlight for a warm-up discussion on Sustainable Tucson’s emerging plans for a City-County “Infrastructure Investment Summit” in March 2026. Our guest is Dr. Edward Maibach\, Distinguished Emeritus Professor at George Mason University (GMU) and the Founding Director of GMU’s Center for Climate Change Communication—a “think-and-do tank” focused on illuminating public engagement in climate change and strategies for enhancing it. This evening is the first in a series of community conversations on investing in people and infrastructure – a creative initiative to rethink our economy by putting people and sustainability first. Ed’s opening comments will be followed by brief remarks from Matt McDonnell\, Julie Hendricks\, and Jessica Janecek\, who will offer futher insights\, leading into further discussion with each other and the audience as a whole.\n\n\n\nEd is a Member of the National Academy of Medicine\, a Fellow of the American Academy for the Advancement of Science\, and serves on the Global Climate and Health Alliance board of directors. In 2024\, he and his center were honored by the National Center for Science Education with a Friend of the Planet Award.   For a preview of Ed’s thinking\, see a chapter he co-authored in the 2023 Annual Review of Earth: “Harnessing the Power of Science and Communication and Behavior Science to Enhance Society’s Response to Climate Change.”\n\n\n\n“There is nothing that physically and technologically limits us from doing it all with renewables. There are only cynical or specious arguments that say we can’t. The biggest barriers remaining have the same origin: inertia or the stubborn insistence on the current way of doing things.”Dr. Saul Griffith\, Electrify: An Optimist’s Playbook for Our Clean Energy Future (October 2021)

SUMMARY:”Earth’s Greatest Enemy” documentary film tour
DESCRIPTION:by Carolyn Classen\, blogger \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Join Abby Martin for the Arizona premiere of her second feature documentary film on the environmental impact of the US military! \n\n\n\nEarth’s Greatest Enemy is the second documentary from journalist Abby Martin that uncovers a shocking blind spot in the climate conversation: the U.S. military. \n\n\n\nExempt from international climate agreements and rarely scrutinized in mainstream reporting\, the Pentagon is revealed here as the world’s single largest institutional polluter—spewing carbon\, contaminating water\, and scarring landscapes across the globe. Combining investigative journalism\, striking visuals\, and stories from impacted communities\, the film challenges audiences to rethink the hidden costs of a global military empire and its planetary consequences. Provocative\, urgent\, and eye-opening\, this is a documentary that will change how you see both the military and environmentalism. \n\n\n\nFeaturing Q&A with Abby Martin and co-director Mike Prysner following the film. \n\n\n\nLearn more about the film and watch the trailer at EarthsGreatestEnemy.com” \n\n\n\nDate and time\n\n\n\nTuesday\, December 9 · 6:30 – 9:30pm EST \n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\nUniversity of Arizona1500 E University Blvd Tucson\, AZ 85721Get directions \n\n\n\nIntergrated Learning Center 130 \n\n\n\nAgenda\n\n\n\n6:30 PM – 7:00 PM \n\n\n\nDoors \n\n\n\n7:00 PM – 9:00 PM \n\n\n\nShow starts \n\n\n\n9:00 PM – 9:30 PM \n\n\n\nQ&A with Abby Martin \n\n\n\nTickets $15 to $30: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/earths-greatest-enemy-tucson-premiere-with-abby-martin-qa-tickets-1757999787689
