---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sat, 13 Jan 2018 13:21:37 -0800 From: Leah Stokes <lsto...@ucsb.edu> To: as...@u.washington.edu Subject: Op-ed in the NYT Hi Aseem, I wanted to pass along this op-ed I wrote in the NYT yesterday, in case you didn't see it. It's about climate change and the disasters in Santa Barbara. But more generally, it's a call to action to talk about these disasters in terms of climate change so that victims can connect the dots and demand policy action. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/11/opinion/california-floods-mudslides-climate.html?_r=0 One more straw on the camel's back, surely. Hopefully it helps. All the best, Leah — Leah Stokes Assistant Professor Department of Political Science Bren School of Environmental Science & Management University of California Santa Barbara http://www.polsci.ucsb.edu/faculty/stokes/
