The climate crisis is not just about the weather, it is about us. Humans: Our minds, our bodies, our health, and our relationships with each other and the world around us. We humans, in turn, shape the climate crisis with our responses, actions, and behaviors. This podcast captures the heart of what’s emerging in the fields of climate psychology and climate mental health care. Presented by the Climate Psychology Alliance of North America: climatepsychology.us
