This is a good post and makes a great point about how we can all learn things by doing, by immersing ourselves in a new context. The implication is that we should have more faith in people's ability to pick things up on the fly and be less rigid in the way we allocate jobs and tasks.
Besides that, we should be learning some climate change terminology!
