A node of sanity in these challenging times.

 

Bill Weir is America’s leading climate reporter. His new book is a celebration of our planet and human brilliance. It is a hopeful plea for communities to rally around nature, new ideas and each other, to create the kind of resilience that lasts generations.

 

In this episode we talk about:

  • How a hotter earth is increasingly changing our lives
  • Why some experts say the climate issue is half physics, half psychology
  • How to work with feelings like rage and despair
  • Why so many of us look away from the climate crisis
  • Why acceptance is not surrender
  • And the utility of class psychological frameworks, including Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and Elisabeth Kübler-Ross’ Five Stages of Grief
