As the effects of climate change continue to grow and spread at an alarming rate, it can be easy to become overwhelmed. But as author Dr. Katharine Wilkinson documents and explains in her new book, “Climate Wayfinding: Healing Ourselves and the Planet We Call Home,” the keys to tackling and adapting to climate change are, despite the recent national policy reversals, there for individuals and communities to embrace — and fast becoming so obvious and cost-effective that no amount of cynical politics will likely be able to derail them. Recently, NC Newsline sat down with Dr. Wilkinson for a special extended conversation, to learn more. In Part One of our conversation, we discussed the vast and rapid changes that are altering our world for the worse as a result of climate change, as well as the fundamental need that people have for finding a way to chart a better path forward – one in which we come to terms with our collective and individual fears and worries and yet also are not paralyzed by them. In Part Two, we turned our attention to the fact that, whether our leaders acknowledge the climate crisis or not, as she puts it, “the Earth itself is making known the challenge at hand.” We also explored the encouraging fact that the combination of scientific advances and, in many instances, the profit motive, are driving an array of advances that have enormous positive potential to help rapidly end our addiction to fossil fuels and promote the kind of healing our planet so desperately needs.

Katharine Wilkinson has a Ph.D. in geography and the environment, is well known for being a co-author of the book Drawdown and co-founder of The All We Can Save Project. She joins the Newscast this week to discuss her latest book Climate Wayfinding: Healing Ourselves and the Planet We Call Home. As a journalist, it's unhelpful for me to divorce myself from the topic of this interview, as I have experienced, time and again, the sense of "murky overwhelm" this book is specifically designed to address. But Wilkinson didn't just write this book for journalists like myself who cover ecological crises for a living. She wrote it for readers and listeners like you. "I think we're all in our own ways grappling with this increasingly mapless time, right? And that is quite literally true," Wilkinson says. "'Is there hope?' and 'What can I do?' I think these are fundamentally navigational questions as much as they are questions of action." What Climate Wayfinding does that I think is unique is it directly addresses the reader and takes them through a process of self-examination. Of sitting with the uncomfortable emotions one feels about our ecological crises, without judgment. And from that self-compassion, asking the reader to imagine the world they want to see instead and encouraging them to map out how they see themselves working to achieve it.

Anxiety, especially climate anxiety, can feel like a constant alarm you can't shut off. If you're living with stress & anxiety, chronic stress, and an undercurrent of grief, you're not alone. And when it starts tipping into burnout, you need tools that build real-world agency. In this conversation, I'm joined by Dr. Katharine Wilkinson — writer, teacher, creator, and one of the clearest voices I know on climate emotions and meaningful action. We're talking about climate anxiety, eco anxiety, climate change anxiety, and the emotional toll of living in a world that can feel harder to trust than it used to. This is a conversation about how to stay grounded without shutting down, and how to move through fear without letting it run your life. We talk about the difference between healthy fear and anxiety that starts taking over, and why anxiety about climate change can leave so many people feeling helpless, isolated, or stuck. Dr. Katharine shares how guilt, anger, and climate grief can become sources of information instead of feelings to numb out or carry alone. We also talk about community, young people, uncertainty, and how meaningful action can help shift you out of paralysis and into a deeper sense of agency. At the end, I put my psychologist hat on and talk through what to do when climate anxiety, chronic stress, or burnout begin affecting your sleep, mood, focus, or daily functioning.

A book to sit with and savor, Climate Wayfinding also invites engagement with journaling prompts, practical exercises, and guides for conversation. Whether steeped in climate or newly curious, readers will discover something grounding and generative in these pages. The terrain ahead is calling—and we have everything we need to find our way. (Source: here) Dr. Katharine Wilkinson is a climate leader named by Time magazine as one of 15 “women who will save the world.” Her publications include the New York Times bestseller, Project Drawdown, and the co-edited, All We Can Save, which is an anthology of writings on climate change named among the 10 best science books of 2020 by Smithsonian magazine. Dr. Wilkinson is the co-founder and executive director of the All We Can Save Project and Co-host of the podcast, A Matter of Degrees. In this interview with Dr. Patricia Houser, Dr. Katharine Wilkinson discusses the unique organization of the Climate Wayfinding book--with its strategic juxtaposition of inspirational essays, poetry, music and reflective passages. This “quilt of components” says Wilkinson, was honed in a series of workshops designed to help people find meaningful and impactful roles as climate leaders/workers. Selected subtopics and excerpts of the conversation can be found at the following timestamps: 0:04 mins. The podcast opens with the author explaining that people today are confronting a world where the earth's features no longer resembles what is on a map—we are literally “map-less.” [Background instrumental music: folk_acoustic from Pixabay] 3:04 “Most books talk to you. These pages hope to walk with you.” 4:18 The Author explains, when she is asked “What can I do?” about the climate crisis, she feels that the answer is really, “something of a Russian doll:” Wilkinson: We ask, what can I do? But sitting within that question are often other bigger wonderings about what it means to be alive at this time, what it means to contribute, where we belong, how are we going to cope? 5:12 Wilkinson: This is an unusual book in the sense that it grew out of this experiential learning and leadership development program and then found its way onto the page. 6:41 Explaining who the book is written for and who is it designed to help 10:41 How the reflective passages and invitations to meditate in this book help people prepare for climate work 15:08 The power of community building as part of a preparation for climate work, has its parallels in history. 17:15 The challenge of better engaging the 89% of people around the world who would like to see more climate action. 24:40 The website climatewayfinding.earth offers audio versions of specially designed meditations printed in the book. 26:45 Features of the website linked to the book. 30:00 Wilkinson: What I hope is that readers, that reading groups, that people who come through the program, they feel at the end of it more equipped for the ongoing work of orientation and navigation and finding our next steps.

At the direction of President Trump the U.S. Department of Justice has sued four states -- Vermont, New York, Hawaii, and Michigan -- that are trying to recover some climate costs from major fossil fuel companies through climate superfund laws and litigation. The DOJ cases are seen by some as frivolous extensions of the other actions the Trump administration has taken to aid the fossil fuel industry. Also, a project called Climate Wayfinding aims to tend to the deepest needs of climate activists by providing a space for reflection, connection, and clarity amid the chaos. Climate Wayfinding has its roots in the All We Can Save project, co-founded by Dr. Katharine Wilkinson, who shares her own story of moving from feeling lost to gaining clarity about her role in the climate movement. And "depaving parties" of volunteers with sledgehammers are turning paved yards into pollinator havens and green space. That can help reduce climate impacts from extreme heat and flooding.

You will hear the voices of Britt Wray, Jordyn Burnouf, Kim Nicholas, Shawna Henderson, Desiree Norweigan and Miranda Baksh speak about how they are experiencing in their climate work, including the importance of feeling our climate emotions, how empathy and emotional intelligence are critical when negotiating climate policy, how the feminine can help hold space for diverse voices and bodies in organizations and businesses results in unique and the valuable collaborations and solutions, and finally what feminist approaches can teach us about emotional resilience during these challenging times. The episode closes with Dr. Katharine Wilkinson explaining how the poem "Natural Resources" by the feminist poet Adrienne Rick helped unlock the title of the book All We Cna Save. She shares beautifully that “Our hearts have to be broken by all we cannot save, all that's already lost, all that will be lost. And, our hearts have to be moved by all that we still can save together”.

It's the penultimate episode of A Little Green and it's time to talk policy. Christina gets up to speed on the latest climate action in Washington. What's on the table? And who's at the table?What becomes clear is that it's going to take bold, transformational climate action to steer us toward a livable future, and the Green New Deal has come to symbolize just that. Christina talks with fellow podcaster Georgia Wright about what this Green New Deal is all about.Jade Begay of NDN Collective and Ali-Reza Vahabzadeh of the American Sustainable Business Council join Christina to shed light on the Biden administration's approach to climate change and how they're incorporating those important environmental justice principles we've learned are so vital to climate action.Christina brings things back to New York to dig into one amazing example of a bold, just, and intersectional initiative with Anthony Rogers-Wright of New York Lawyers for the Public Interest. It's called Renewable Rikers.With so much great work being done by these organizers in the climate movement, Christina wonders why we haven't made bigger strides on the national and global scale.

Welcome back to this mini series on imperfect sustainability!! My aim for this series is to inspire you to view sustainability in a more positive light and to help you to genuinely make a difference in your own life. Let's tackle this with a non-judgemental, solutions-driven attitude and lift each other up rather than tearing each other down. Episode 5: why we need gender & racial equality for climate justice "If you care about the planet, you need to care about racial and gender inequalities." Apart from being so so important in their own right, achieving gender and racial justice are so necessary for reversing climate change and sustainability. Empowering women, educating girls & family planning could prove incredibly important solutions, with a predicted reduction of 1 billion people that could be born by 2050 possible. --- Things mentioned in this episode: Drawdown : The Most Comprehensive Plan Ever Proposed To Reverse Global Warming (here) TedTalk with Katharine Wilkinson (here) Female leaders during the pandemic (article) Xiye Bastida on Talking Tastebuds (here) A post featuring Youth Climate Activists you should follow on insta Me & White Supremacy by Layla F Saad TedTalk by David Lammy 'Climate justice can't happen without racial justice' (here) --- Space to Learn on Apple Podcasts - leave a rating and a review here!!

If we really want to address climate change, we need to make gender equity a reality, says writer and environmentalist Katharine Wilkinson. As part of Project Drawdown, Wilkinson has helped scour humanity's wisdom for solutions to draw down heat-trapping, climate-changing emissions: obvious things like renewable energy and sustainable diets and not so obvious ones, like the education and empowerment of women. In this informative, bold talk, she shares three key ways that equity for women and girls can help stop global warming. "Drawing down emissions depends on rising up," Wilkinson says. Hosted on Acast.

“Gender and climate are inextricably linked,” said environmentalist and author Katharine Wilkinson on stage at TEDWomen last week, a gathering of women thought leaders and activists in Palm Desert, California. Women, she says, are disproportionately affected by climate change. When communities are decimated by floods or droughts, tsunamis or fire, the most vulnerable among them suffer the most.
