  • Fake globalist propaganda to tax carbon dioxide as the fascist technocrats enslave the West with their one world surveillance state. Genocidal Gavin Newsom, a zionist World Economic Forum "young global leader" drained the water reservoir a year ago to burn down yet another town in Failed State California. Build back better a "smart" 15 minute city for social credit system & kill all the chickens and cows to control the weather. 🐔

  • Don't let guests run on

    I highly value the information in podcasts prepared for Climate Rising. My only complaint is that some guests freely talk for long periods of time without interruption. These guests will speak fast and without pause. The podcast can then sound more like a commercial for the guest than a teaching and learning experience. A bit more interaction please.

  • Climate podcast like no other!

    Climate Rising is an absolute gem. It stands out for diverse guest lineup and Mike’s ability to pose tough questions that elicit genuine, insightful answers. The show explored wide range of climate perspectives and innovative solutions, and I love that Mike always asks guest what young students and others can do in the careers. I am one of those people that this podcast has inspired! Thank you, Mike!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Potential Energy Coalition: Why Climate Messaging Fails - and How to Fix It
Q: Can you share a campaign example where reframing around a value like 'freedom' or 'trust farmers with their land' made a real difference?
In Michigan, framing around freedom and allowing farmers to use their land for energy projects boosted support for permanent farms and avoided bans, showing that values-driven, locally relevant messages outperform bans and mandates.
Potential Energy Coalition: Why Climate Messaging Fails - and How to Fix It
Q: How do you approach testing and measurement to determine what actually moves people and policies?
We run thousands of randomized tests, focus groups, and in-market ad campaigns, measuring both persuasive impact and engagement, and use AI to uncover patterns and optimize messages and messengers.
Potential Energy Coalition: Why Climate Messaging Fails - and How to Fix It
Q: What specific focus areas do you target within the energy transition, and why those five territories (clean energy, electrification of industry, transport, buildings, and reduction of dirty energy)?
These areas represent the big systemic levers for decarbonization, with the right campaigns capable of creating large policy and market shifts, especially when paired with the right messaging and audience targeting.
Potential Energy Coalition: Why Climate Messaging Fails - and How to Fix It
Q: Why did you organize Potential Energy Coalition as a nonprofit rather than a traditional for-profit firm?
The aim was to remove profit motives from messaging and keep the cause at the center, relying on philanthropic support to fund operations and focus on outcomes rather than client-driven goals.
Good Power: How Climate Communication Can Accelerate the Energy Transition
Q: What role does storytelling play in changing public opinion, and how do you measure success for these campaigns?
Storytelling, especially peer-to-peer stories from credible messengers in rural America, is central. We measure success through public opinion shifts (NIMBY to YIMBY) using the Good Data Lab with randomized trials and longitudinal studies, and by tracking whether projects reach final permitting and construction.
