Upcoming Cranky Uncle events

Posted on 25 February 2020 by John Cook

The Cranky Uncle vs. Climate Change book is now available! The book uses cartoons, humor, and critical thinking to expose how and why some people reject climate science. It's now available for sale on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other book outlets.

Cranky Uncle vs Climate Change cover

If you're near the DC area, you're very welcome to attend our launch event at the George Mason University Arlington campus on March 4. I'll be talking about how my psychological and critical thinking research was applied in the creation of this book, and will be signing books afterwards. There'll also be some limited edition Cranky Uncle swag for some lucky attendees! You can register for this free event here.

I'll also be attending a number of book events next month in Utah. On Monday Mar 17, I'll be speaking at a book event in Park City. On Tuesday Mar 18, a book event at Weller Books Works in Salt Lake City. On Thursday Mar 20, I'll be running a free teacher workshop at Weber State University. On Friday Mar 21, I'll run a critical thinking workshop for Weber's Intermountain Sustainability Summit. On Saturday, I'll be having a lie down!

But the first book event is later today - a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything). If you have any questions about the Cranky Uncle book (or game), or my research into climate misinformation, or my research into the 97% consensus on climate change, or the Denial101x MOOC, or well, anything, jump over to Reddit and ask your question!
