As I wrap up book talks in the UK, I am grateful for fruitful conversations @ucl.ac.uk @bristoluni.bsky.social @uniofbath.bsky.social @cam.ac.uk. Our exchanges reinforced the value of quantitative social science, governance, and organizational behavior to understand #corporateclimateaction.

Today's #PLOSClimateCountdown pick is an Editorial by @lilyhsueh.bsky.social, Florian Egli, @lisgilmore.bsky.social, Anjal Prakash, Anamika Barua and @profangelhsu.bsky.social: "Confronting challenges and opportunities in climate policy and governance" 🔗 journals.plos.org/climate/arti...

Despite Trump's rollback of climate policies, major corporations like Walmart are quietly maintaining their environmental commitments. State regulations and global pressure are proving stronger incentives than federal deregulation, explains an economist. #COP30

Drawing on insights from my new book, “Corporations at Climate Crossroads,” I penned a piece for @us.theconversation.com answering the question whether the world’s largest corporations will continue their env commitments despite political headwinds. @mitpress.bsky.social @asupubaffairs.bsky.social

In the latest Latitude blog post, we speak to PLOS Climate editorial board member @lilyhsueh.bsky.social about her new book, 'Corporations at Climate Crossroads' latitude.plos.org/2025/11/corp...

Folks attending next week's @appam.bsky.social fall research conference can sit in on a roundtable with "Corporations at Climate Crossroads" author @lilyhsueh.bsky.social. The roundtable begins at 10:15 am on Thursday, November 13th. Link for details: convention2.allacademic.com/one/appam/ap...

Now at Climate Central, the work that NOAA used to do measuring impacts of natural disaster. What we don’t measure, we cannot improve. So glad that someone has picked up the baton that the administration decided was not worth carrying anymore. www.climatecentral.org/climate-matt...

New, from an anonymous NIH insider: Trump is being pushed to spend more NIH money. The White House is ordering NIH to do multi-year budgets for awards. This budget trick means fewer awards, fewer labs funded, and lower paylines for researchers. 🧵 donmoynihan.substack.com/p/alert-the-...

The equivalent for wildfire are community features like fuel breaks and prescribed fire and structure/backyard level investments like limiting fuels directly adjacent to structures.

This is the way to think about wildfire catastrophe and community resilience. Seat belts, air bags, crumple zones, collision avoidance don’t eliminate losses, but they reduce them massively. We can do the same for wildfire. We need to. We need to

People die in car crashes. A lot of people. In 2022 in the US, about 46,000. But if we had not made the safety improvements in cars that we have over the past half century - and had the same death rate as a result, 153,000 people would have died.

Ironic that there's no sharing option for Bluesky. 🥲

So impressive that the Biden admin got this done before leaving. It demonstrates an incredible work ethic, and a realization that the less business left unfinished before the start of the new administration, the better.
