I think a book can make a difference. If you're able to contribute to one, I'd love to hear from you.

Over the years, I've seen how a shared conversation can enable change. And a book—an agreed upon set of facts--can be the focus of that conversation.

I've produced many almanacs over the years, including the Information Please Business Almanac and The Women's Almanac. This project is more urgent though.

The Carbon Almanac will be a collection of tables, graphs, history, quotes, explanations and maps about the state of carbon in our world today. It's a zero-profit all-volunteer project, built by a cadre of people online and eventually shared widely. The whole thing is built online, completely asynchronous and horizontal.

We are searching for twenty or thirty more contributors. Here's a simple form... we'll reach out soon if it's a good fit. At that point, we will share login information to join the community.

Thanks for making a difference.
