The Climate Apology

The Climate Apology is a powerful tool in assisting us to reconcile our fears of climate breakdown and the uncertainties it threatens with the excuses we make to avoid doing what we can as citizens, consumers, professionals and loved ones.

 

The Climate Apology is based on the proven effectiveness of acknowledging actions that have caused harm, however inadvertently, and for taking steps to make amends and demonstrate commitment to healing and reparation. It draws on extensive research on climate behavioural psychology, theories of systems and internal family systems thinking, and ancient philosophies to ensure meaningful dialogues and actions can be undertaken by individuals and collectively so that together we can say we've got this.

 

Through facilitated discussions and workshops to guided reading programmes and course materials, The Climate Apology assists people of all ages, including teachers, lecturers, and community and business leaders in exploring and articulating the anxieties surrounding climate change and implementing changes in thinking and behaviors that assist with meeting the challenges that lie ahead. 

 

I invite you to explore the information contained on this website and hope you will get in touch to discuss how The Climate Apology could work for you and your organisation.
