The Reading List

As you might imagine, I subscribe to a number of feeds on climate, energy and sustainability.  Here are a few that I highly recommend to you.

Nature Reports Climate Change, from the Nature Publishing Group, is an excellent resource on climate science and related matters.  Its companion blog, Climate Feedback, has timely and compelling coverage of the issues.  In the current issue of NRCC, I thought the review of the new book, Global Warring: How Environmental, Economic, and Political Crises Will Redraw the World Map, was a particularly interesting bit of reading.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change has an e-newsletter, UNFCCC News, with a range of interesting insights on mitigation, adaptation, finance, technology and other news.  This month’s edition, has a guest column by Peter Dunscombe, Chairman of the Institutional Investors Group on Climate Change, on how strong public policy should be driving private sector investment.  (Hear that US Senators?)

A third resource is the excellent SolveClimate, providing “daily climate news and analysis” and appealing to a broad range of “climate players” including environmentalists, investors, people of faith, and young people, among others.  Well written and scrupulously researched, the articles have some real heft.  There’s a great one today, for instance, on the Alberta tar sands:  Report Warns Oil Sands Investors of Toxic Wastewater’s Financial Risk.

It’s not easy, as you no doubt well know, to keep up on your reading, but it helps to have some reliable sources available to you.  Like this blog too, I hope you think.
