At the moment when much of the science was known but there was no awareness in political circles, Pomerance was crucial in shaping recognition by government officials, policy-makers, and the public that climate change is a crisis. In two conversations, on May 10 and August 5, 2019, we talk about his path into climate work; the sequence of his experiences as an advocate, strategist, organizer, and negotiator; his work with Arctic 21 and ReThink Energy Florida; his political assessment of the point to which we have come; and his experience as a “witnessing professional.” - Reproduced Rafe Pomerance, Climate change warrior 25172 Daedalus CLIMATE CHANGE AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 390435 IIPA IIPA 2021-02-23 149(4), Fall 2020: p.163-179 AR124410 2021-02-23 AR
