Great list, thank you Rob.

Can I add a few other, mostly water focused things if you don’t mind?

Alpha Lo does a great job at explaining the water cycles and more:

Brad Lancaster and his work in Tucson suburbia: https://www.harvestingrainwater.com/

Andrew Millison has been documenting India’s water revolution on YouTube.

Big yes on Judith’s books, should be a must read for all high school kids I reckon.

Also a huge influence on us when we were starting out and ended up changing everything for us was a soil advocacy course that Kiss The Ground did for free (sadly no longer free!!). It’s through a regenerative agriculture lens.

Hi Leon. Thanks for these! I've seen Alpha Lo's postings on facebook but did not know he had a substack page. It's excellent. Thanks for the tip. And I've heard of Brad's amazing work as well. Unfortunately, I can't update the list without reposting. But will publish an update in about a month or so with your suggestions on it. All the best, Rob

Great list Rob!. Some other scientists who are looking at how vegetation affects climate are Martin Claussen. I write about his work here https://climatewaterproject.substack.com/p/possible-states-the-earth-can-evolve . Francina Dominguez is a climate scientist that studies how forests affect rain https://climatewaterproject.substack.com/p/forest-changes-wind-wind-changes#details . And Dutch hydrologist Hubert Savenije and his student Van der Ent study the small water cycle, which they call precipitation recycling and moisture recycling https://climatewaterproject.substack.com/p/moisture-feedback-loops

Thanks, Alpha! I'll check these out.

Now I just need to find the time to peruse all these valuable links! I have read Charles's book but that's it so far, and really feel the importance of having a more effective grasp on what is going on with the climate narratives. I'm currently taking a course in Practical Sustainability and we have been looking at soil health and water - I would love to deepen my knowledge and understanding. So thank you for all this, Rob.

I'm so glad you're found it useful! That's the whole point. Thanks, Helen, Rob
