Psychology for Climate (FREE Bonus & Extended)

Professor Viveka Ramel and I discuss the challenges of facing a poly-crisis, how to feel our feelings without becoming paralyzed, and how to harness our emotions into powerful action. This bonus, extended episode is a parting gift, as CKC will be on a break for several months as I sail part-way across the world. To follow that adventure, see my YouTube channel Artist At Law, "Sailing for Sustainability" playlist. But don't worry, I'm sure CKC will be back within a year!

Alexandra Pimor provides a historical and philosophical background to Nature Conscious Governance, including the first time Europe engaged in conscious governance. The purpose is to live in harmony with our planet, each other, and ourselves. While this idea may sound abstract, examples from our own lives make these concepts more tangible and provide a therapeutic perspective on our own work, relationships, and our place on Earth. learn more about Nature Conscious Governance and the Dandelion Fellowship at earthlawcenter.org

TRAILER

Trailer: Coral, Kelp & Community

Some people think it’s silly to call it planet Earth, when really, it’s planet Ocean. And the ocean is finally getting the attention it deserves, not only as a beautiful magical place to admire, but as our partner in fighting climate change, in creating food security and equity, and in restoring humanity by restoring our relationship with the sea. Welcome to Coral Kelp and Community, a podcast brought to you by the Reef Life Foundation, where—you guessed it—coral and kelp are restored through nature-based solutions and this podcast aims to share the voice of the ocean community. In doing so, we hope to foster the UN Ocean Decade goal of increasing ocean literacy I’m your host, Tara Pierce, and I’m excited to nerd out with you on ocean science, policy, activism, and more. Each episode has a new guest sharing their expertise and knowledge. Join us for our launch on International Whale Shark Day as we begin sharing ocean stories to inspire ocean stewards.
