How to Keep Your Cool on a Warming Planet: An Existential Toolkit for Climate Movement In-Person

What will it take to imagine, desire, and thrive in a climate-changed world? We already have the technological, scientific, and economic tools to address the climate crisis, so what emotional resources are needed to put those tools into action? How can we live our best lives and bring our best selves to climate justice, in the face of so much degradation and suffering? In this talk, Dr. Sarah Jaquette Ray will explore these questions drawing on her book, A Field Guide to Climate Anxiety: How to Keep Your Cool on a Warming Planet. The book brings together the social movement theory, environmental justice, climate psychology, and mindfulness to outline strategies for engaging emotions in service of climate justice.
