Climate Change Communication and outreach
(This is by no means a complete list!)
Climate Central - dedicated to researching and reporting the science and impacts of climate change.
Surging Seas - sea level analysis effort by Climate Central.
Sea Change - a website for the public on sea-level change.
Skeptical Science - a non profit organization outlining common (invalid) arguments from Climate Skeptics, and what the science really says (i.e. responses based on peer-reviewed scientific consensus)
Climate and climate science podcasts I am currently listening to: A Matter of Degrees with Leah Stokes and Katherine Wilkinson, How to save a Planet with Ayana Johnson, Climate Scientists with Dan Jones, The Secret Life of Canada (to relearn Canadian history with a better awareness of the bias, racism and discrimination that was ever-present, which I see as a necessary step to climate justice.)
I and many of the organizations and people I follow on Twitter often post on this topic (@NatalyaGomezEPS)

COFFEE and PASTRIES
Future Bakery - a coffee/cheesecake/cheap food spot for hanging out or working near the University of Toronto.
Simon's Coffee Shop - my favourite coffee shop to work at near Harvard University.
Prodigy Coffee - serves, in my opinion, the best mocha near NYU in New York.
