    Wrapping Up the Podcast

    We launched the Climate Workshop Podcast a year ago to experiment with bringing our climate conversations online. It has been a great experience, but we have decided to focus our time and energy on other climate efforts. We are officially putting this project on hold, though you never know what will happen in the future! Thank you for being part of our podcast community. We are grateful to our guests and to Bryan Cahall for his music. If you want to connect with our present work and climate efforts, visit our websites and social media channels listed below.

  2. Disengagement is not the answer

    18/05/2018

    Disengagement is not the answer

    When the chaos of the news cycle “drowns out life“ what should we do? Pretend we’re isolated individuals, that nobody else matters, and double down on our sense of helplessness? We think not! Tim and Peter discuss a recent article in the Providence Journal suggesting disengagement as a viable coping strategy. FROM THIS EPISODE "When the chaos of a 24/7 news cycle drowns out life, what do you do?" http://www.providencejournal.com/news/20180504/when-chaos-of-247-news-cycle-drowns-out-life-what-do-you-do Tribe by Sebastian Junger https://twitter.com/sebastianjunger http://www.sebastianjunger.com/tribe-by-sebastian-junger/ "This book is about why tribal sentiment is such a rare and precious thing in modern society, and how the lack of it has affected us all. It’s about what we can learn from tribal societies about loyalty and belonging and the eternal human quest for meaning. It’s about why—for many people—war feels better than peace and hardship can turn out to be a great blessing and disasters are sometimes remembered more fondly than weddings or tropical vacations. Humans don’t mind duress, in fact they thrive on it. What they mind is not feeling necessary.” — Sebastian Junger “Sentiment without action is the ruin of the soul.” ― Edward Abbey CONVERSATION Have thoughts on this episode?

  6. Should We Take Climate Change Personally?

    Should We Take Climate Change Personally?

    In this episode, we explore dealing with the climate crisis on an individual level. How do we look at what's happening with open eyes while remaining grounded? How do we stay engaged without letting it consume us? Our conversation ranges from mindfulness practice and holding concern for our children and future generations to the need for a culture where we call people out for actions that devalue a livable future.

    Deep Reflection, Bold Action. Small Groups with Marla Marcum

    Tim and Peter talk small groups with Marla Marcum of the Climate Disobedience Center. The Climate Disobedience Center exists to support a growing community of climate dissidents who take the risk of action, grounded in love, commensurate with the scale and urgency of the crisis. Part of their original mission was to build a culture of dissent and disobedience. To advance that culture building mission, this year they are building small community groups called “Praxis Groups” to help activists support each other in their personal development and their actions. Learn more about the Climate Disobedience Center led by Tim DeChristopher (of this podcast), Marla Marcum, and Jay O’Hara, at http://www.climatedisobedience.org The signup page for the Praxis Groups discussed in this episode may be found at http://climatedisobedience.org/community On Twitter?

  8. Introduction to Civil Disobedience in the Climate Movement

    07/01/2018

    Introduction to Civil Disobedience in the Climate Movement

    In this episode, Tim DeChristopher and Peter Bowden discuss some of the trends of civil disobedience in the climate movement, as well as the fundamental roles of civil disobedience as a tool for social change. Co-host Tim DeChristopher disrupted an illegitimate Bureau of Land Management oil and gas auction in December of 2008, by posing as "Bidder 70" and outbidding oil companies for parcels around Arches and Canyonlands National Parks in Utah. For his act of civil disobedience, he was sentenced to two years in federal prison. Held for a total of 21 months, his imprisonment earned him an international media presence as an activist and political prisoner of the United States government. More on his background with civil disobedience at http://timdechristopher.org/about.

    Climate change, economic inequality, toxic masculinity, and more with Rev. Mariama White-Hammond

    Tim DeChristopher talks with Rev. Mariama White-Hammond, the Minister for Ecological Justice at Bethel AME Church in Boston, MA. Rev. Mariama shares her deep ecological view of climate and social justice. She talks about her role as a black minister challenging the predominantly white climate movement to recognize that the problem is much bigger than parts per million. This episode connects the dots between climate change and economic inequality, toxic masculinity, mass incarceration, and more. Not only has Rev. Mariama done groundbreaking work on community climate resilience, she also won her fantasy football league last year! Follow Rev.

    Making space for climate conversations

    Tim DeChristopher and Peter Bowden discuss Peter’s entry into climate activism and what kind of conversations they feel have been missing from the climate movement. They challenge some of the conventional wisdom about communicating climate change and call for a more authentic, diverse, and humble conversation. Also, don’t miss Peter’s great Bill McKibben impression!  Love you, Bill :-)
