After many years of writing on whatever came to mind, I am now trying to be more systematic in some areas. In particular, I am trying to come up with a comprehensive collection of blog posts covering all important aspects of climate change. This serves a number of purposes: it helps me to synthesize information, it should be informative to others, and it should foster discussion that helps increase the sophistication of positions and arguments. The posts are organized here:
The index page isn’t the most gorgeous looking thing on the web, but it is resilient and can be updated easily. Do people see this as a useful undertaking? What would make it more helpful or worthwhile? This initiative was mentioned before, but received little attention.
Here is the code for the link above:

Feel free to link it on other sites, if desired.
One way to be “more systematic” would be to write things more substantial than blog posts. There is certainly a demand for all sorts of writing on climate change, and you seem to have the requisite knowledge.
This will be very handy when writing my paper.
Emily,
I hope it proves helpful to a good number of people, though I am naturally especially pleased that it might be useful for you.

That is something to consider, though perhaps it would be better to undertake writing projects in other areas of thought.
