We are tired of hearing about climate change. Its threat has been looming over us for so long, and we’ve learned every narrative: we know about the polar bears, the scientists, the corporations, the protests, the pessimists saying the tipping point has already passed. The stories we hear are great at sparking terror, guilt, rage, desperation and, ultimately, apathy.
It gets old, doesn’t it? What about solidarity? What about understanding? What about balancing the urgency of the need to act with the belief that taking action is possible and meaningful?
This is not a place for telling the usual climate story. This is the place for your climate story—our climate story.
