  in reply to: Amber Dawn’s comment on: I read Jo­hannes Ackva’s post on cli­mate change which men­tions three ar­eas that can cre­ate global lev­er­age. Is there a (pos­si­bly ca­reer-ori­ented) site that pro­vides a higher level of de­tail and com­par­i­son be­tween is­sues within cli­mate, in a similar way that 80,000 Hours does for global ex­is­ten­tial prob­lems?

  Thanks, I hadn’t seen the second link. Would be interesting to see a bit more of a quantitive analysis of the different options, but maybe that’s something someone needs to build.

  “This guide is about what we believe the implications of this changing landscape to be for donors that are motivated by maximizing positive climate impact.” Interesting, but ideally it’d be something framed for people looking to work in climate rather than those with money looking to donate.
