Joe Romm, the influential climate and energy expert, author and communicator, has died at 66. His career stretched from nuclear security and federal energy policy to climate journalism, documentaries and research into how we communicate complex ideas.

Joe Romm was a climate hero.

Most of all, he was a scientist and a fantastic bullshit slayer. He called out greenwashing nonsense better than anyone.

Sad to hear of the passing of Joe Romm. Our relationship soured when I refused to shun those with whom he disagreed - but he was a tireless fighter for what he thought was right. He did much to communicate the urgency of climate action and will be sorely missed.

I worked with Dr. Joe Romm in my first job, on his site Climate Progress. I thought he was fearless then, and he remained so throughout his career. His writing inspired and taught me, and many many others. Saddened by this unexpected loss. web.sas.upenn.edu/pcssm/news/r...

"To improve communications about climate change and other issues, he wrote Language Intelligence and How to Go Viral and Reach Millions." And he loved comedy!
