I don't know how we move people unless we engage in a deeply personal way. It's not fair, but it seems to be what we're dealing with. People aren't moved by numbers and stats. They're moved by courage and meaning. Of someone risking (financially, physically, emotionally).

I think this has been true for quite a while, and it's interesting to watch recent events in NYC, where the level of bottled-up anxiety is high, and people attend talks looking for absolution.
We absolutely need to create spaces EVERYWHERE for people to work on climate grief, anxiety, rage. This is so obvious yet so over looked.

A wonderful thread. Thanks for digging

I think I'm an odd ball in this area. I find brutal honesty more uplifting / motivating than some reason to be hopeful. One of my favorite climate change videos is Toby (he will forever be Toby to me) on Newsroom:https://youtu.be/M1cMnM-UJ5U
