Member Profile
I am a human, attempting to live in climate truth.
I know that climate change poses an imminent threat to our civilization, our species, and each of us individually. I know that the only possible solution to the problem is a waging a WWII-level war on climate change: a massive, government-led, society-wide mobilization. I know that, to achieve such a response, we need to coordinate a social and political movement.
I am working with a group of like-minded individuals to launch The Climate Mobilization, a political platform and social movement strategy.
Even though it is tempting to put the terrifying knowledge of climate change out of mind, I strive to live the truth of what I know. I strive to spread the word about the danger we humans are in, and the solution that we must implement together. To put it another way: Humans, collectively, are committing passive suicide. Through my blog, The Climate Psychologist, and especially through the development of The Climate Mobilization, I am attempting to stage an intervention.
Making the switch from climate change despair and depression to climate change activism is probably the best thing I have ever done. I wake up in the morning thinking about climate change, but I am not thinking about destruction; I am thinking about action and intervention and coalition building. I am thinking about new ideas and blogging and e-mails and allies and fighting back! It doesn’t feel overwhelming and terrifying anymore. It feels energizing and meaningful. It feels like hope.
I hold a BA from Harvard in Social Anthropology, and a MA from Adelphi University in Psychology and a PhD in clinical psychology from Adelphi University.
I am a human attempting to live in climate truth and avert the worst catastrophe humanity has ever faced. I hope you me and my allies in The Climate Mobilization, and you come mobilize with us.
