Scott T. Starbuck ’s Hawk on Wire: Ecopoems was selected from over 1,500 entries as a Montaigne Medal Finalist at Eric Hoffer Awards for “the most thought-provoking books.” Written at a PLAYA climate change residency, it was a July 2017 “Editor’s Pick” at Newpages.com along with The Collected Stories of Ray Bradbury, and featured at Yale Climate Connections. There is a 24-minute YouTube of his book launch sponsored by La Jolla Historical Society’s WEATHER ON STEROIDS EXHIBIT. In addition to being a poet, Starbuck participated in, and presented at, the UCSD Climate Curriculum Workshop, gathering ideas for his science-based poems. His climate ecoblog is Trees, Fish, and Dreams and “Manifesto from Poet on a Dying Planet” is at Split Rock Review. Starbuck’s new book Carbonfish Blues (Fomite, 2018) will be a collaboration with English artist Guy Denning who will provide drawings, murals, and paintings of activism, refugees, human vulnerability, and realism.
