By coupling feelings of anxiety with agency to change the system, we can channel our emotions, rather than feeling passively beholden to them, into fighting for all that's left and restoring much of what has already been lost.
Ever felt that gnawing worry about the future of our planet? In this gripping episode of 'Force of Nature', Clover Hogan tackles the unsettling topic of eco-anxiety and its ties to ecological extinction. First, she sits down with Aishwarya Sidhar, an award-winning environmental filmmaker and wildlife photographer, to uncover how capitalist systems are hastening the demise of countless species. Sidhar doesn't hold back, pointing out how corporate greed is wreaking havoc on our natural world.
Next, Clover brings in Caroline Hickman, a psychotherapist who explains how our disconnection from nature fuels this crisis. Hickman believes that our historical battle against nature, mistakenly framed as progress, has led us down this destructive path. The conversation then shifts to actionable solutions with Jennifer Morgan, Executive Director of Greenpeace. Morgan shares her insights on what we can do right now to save our planet.
Finally, Clover emphasizes the urgent need for climate education in schools, arguing that knowledge is a powerful tool in combating eco-anxiety. This episode is a must-listen for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the state of our environment but eager to channel that anxiety into meaningful action.
