The Perfectionist’s Guide to Losing Control: Katherine Morgan Schafler explains that perfectism is a phenomenon and not necessarily a disorder. In an adaptive way, can be an asset when channeled the correct way. It is also way more nuance than we are led to believe.
The Carbon Almanac: A tremendous feat to gather over 300 climatologists from around the world to put together straightforward information about the climate crisis. Easy. Digestible. Essential.
