    • Documentary

Part 1 of 2
What is it like to live with a constant sense of anticipation and fear for the future of our planet?

 Our guest for this episode is Linda Aspey,  hosted by Susan Pease Banitt.  They explore the experience of eco-anxiety, an issue that is silently spreading across our society. We share our personal journeys in grappling with this sense of impending doom and the importance of breaking the silence and acknowledging this mental strain.

Curious about the invisible role media plays in shaping your perception of environmental health? 

We unpacked this and more, discussing the subtle ways media contributes to climate change denial and the socially constructed silence surrounding environmental issues. In our conversation, we also explore the absence of rituals and conversations around environmental degradation in Western society and why this matters. 

We reflect upon our collective responsibility to wake up and address the existential threat to our environment.

Finally, we turn the spotlight onto privilege, decolonization, anxiety, and the power of active hope and community in responding to climate change. We discuss the impact of privileged communities on indigenous populations, the importance of reconnecting with nature, and the role of active hope and community in combating the overwhelming nature of climate change.

 As we navigate these topics, we highlight the need for empathy, connection, and action in creating a more sustainable and just world. 

Join us as we journey from anxiety to action, and rediscover our common bond with nature.
