Looking for some Climate Oriented gifts?

Yale Climate Connections suggests these books: https://yaleclimateconnections.org/2020/12/gift-guide-12-books-on-climate-and-environment-for-the-holidays/?ct=t(EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_DAILY_120320)

Here’s a suggestion from a CCNCW friend:

The World’s Littlest Book on Climate: 10 Facts in 10 Minutes about CO2.

This is the world’s smallest book on the world’s biggest problem: CO2 and climate change. This book provides a concise and entertaining introduction to the most pressing environmental issue of our time. More than just a primer, even knowledgeable readers will learn something new and important about the science of climate change. The book is available for climate-outreach organizations at reduced cost and can be customized for your organization’s needs. All proceeds from the book benefit the Citizens’ Climate Lobby and climate outreach education.

It is indeed a short book and can be read in 10-15 minutes. It is an ideal tool for climate outreach and education. You can purchase it here:

https://www.amazon.com/Worlds-Littlest-Book-Climate-Minutes/dp/B08KQ64VCG/ref=sr_1_1?crid=29J2NDZQPU2KW&dchild=1&keywords=the+worlds+littlest+book+on+climate&qid=1606496447&sprefix=the+worlds+

I bought one for each of our 12th District Legislators!

Don’t forget giving to some of your favorite Climate Organizations; many have t-shirts, mugs and other swag that support eco-friendly causes!
