Climate Roundup:  attention spikes with people's climate march and un summit

The figure above presents twitter traffic for #peoplesclimate, #ActOnClimate, and any tweets with the term "climate" for the past month--from 31 August to 30 September 2014.   The People's Climate March and the UN Climate Summit increased attention on the issue to record levels up to 200,000 tweets during the March.  These levels are significantly higher than during other climate events in 2014.  For example, the National Climate Assessment pushed twitter traffic up to almost 80,000 tweets and President Obama's Clean Power Plan announcement peaked at 50,000 tweets (see earlier posts below for details on these figures).  Since the Summit ended last week, overall coverage of the climate issue on Twitter has gone back to previous levels below 50,000 posts a day.
