2020
No items found.

A panel discussion led by Margaret Klein Salamon, author of Facing the Climate Emergency, exploring the emotional challenges of facing the climate crisis and how pain can be used to transform oneself and one's community rather than causing paralysis. Salamon is joined by three panellists: Sally Gillespie, author of Climate Crisis and Consciousness and co-founder of the Climate Wellbeing Network in Sydney, who speaks to how joining with others to address the crisis can reshape an isolated experience of self into a connected one; Charles LeFeuvre, a psychiatrist and psychotherapist with long involvement in psychological approaches to climate change; and Susie Burke, a Fellow of the Australian Psychological Society and author of the Climate Change Empowerment Handbook, with a particular interest in raising children in a climate-altered world.
