Climate crisis disrupts the beliefs, values and behaviors of contemporary societies, sparking potential for radical changes in culture and consciousness. Drawing upon her experience as a Jungian psychotherapist and a researcher in the field of climate psychology, Sally Gillespie writes about the challenges, dilemmas, opportunities and transformations of engaging with climate and ecological crises. Many factors shape how we understand and respond to the existential threats of climate crisis. This accessible book with its discussions about worldviews, cultural myths, emotional resilience, social connectedness, nature relatedness and collective action explores consciousness change in those most engaged with climate issues. Calling upon the words and stories of many people, including Indigenous leaders, ecologists, campaigners, writers and philosophers, Gillespie encourages us to enter into climate conversations to forge emotional resilience, ecological consciousness and inspired action. With its unique focus on the psychological experience of facing into the climate crisis, this warm and supportive book offers companionship and sustenance for anyone who wants to be alive to our natural world and to the existential challenges of today. It is an essential resource for counsellors, psychotherapists, social workers and other helping professionals, as well as climate campaigners, policy makers, educators, scientists and researchers.

This book emphasizes that by the year 2009, the impact of climate change will be noticed by all and that a possible global crisis may developperhaps no later than 2025. It explains that since global warming is man-made, humanity has no choice but to adjust its lifestyle, reduce its ecological footprint, and also restore the ecology in order to avoid possible catastrophic climate change. Companies will have to play an important role in resolving this situation and may need to review their direction; if need be, companies may have to take the lead and act without the support of their respective governments. While organizations may in some cases already have taken a leading role, there is not yet sufficient action taking place to combat climate change. While the information in this book contains a brief overview of the possible events for the next twenty years, it also holds the key which is needed to change human consciousnessdirectly addressing the main aspects of human consciousness that are the cause of many planetary imbalances. The author decided to publish this material, which she received late 2004, because of a looming planetary crisis. Some of the timelines predicted in the book are now beginning to emerge. Many organizations can play a major role in making changes to support the environment and can in the endperhaps more so than governmentscreate the solution to an enormous global problem. Those in leading positions can be a step ahead. It may be in their interest to do soto be competitive as part of a new, ecologically more aware future. There is a trend in business whereby people are proactively looking for solutions; while there may be technical solutions available for some aspects of this emerging crisis, innovation is required to implement solutions back into the production process and into society. Within each person already resides a unique, very creative and innovative part that may be of assistance. Each person has access to this innovative part within which has answers and solutions to any situation in life. This innate part is often able to express itself in people with very good creative ability or people with a special gift and is available to everyone who wishes to find it. In this book an example is shown of how this creative and innovative part could become a resource for business. This part is sometimes called the true self, your authenticity, or your own innate uniqueness. For those who wish to explore this part, a method which is briefly outlined in this book, may be beneficial. This unique method, called exchange of awareness, utilizes the persons self through a process that may be of assistance. It includes an example of how to apply this method in personal relationships and in the workplace environment, such as when staff members are not in alignment with a companys general objectives. The true self or innate uniqueness knows what is required in any situation and may be of help by providing further insights. More care and caring procedures are needed to be applied by humanity. The book provides examples of care (or lack thereof) in the context of both business and personal relationships. It shows where care is often lacking in a business process, such as sales. It includes some sample conceptual ideas about implementation of care. These care concepts, which are a major issue, are often absent in todays society and need to be implemented in any organizational structure, such as a business, hospital, or educational facility to improve functionality and outflow. Through implementation of care principles, there may be an improvement in the outflow of people and the structures they take part in with benefits for all of life and society at large.

"Our climate is changing, in ways that will have long-term impacts for us and for our children. Yet still we fail to take meaningful action. Why? And when will it be too late? Ralph Chapman argues that we have only 'a small and shrinking window of time' before the pressures from climate change become too great for us to address them coherently. This BWB Text is a practical call to arms for New Zealand citizens and policy makers alike, identifying the actions that are urgent and critical for the creation of a green economy and a sustainable future"--Publisher information.

Now more than ever—in a time when Americans still do not believe that humans are the primary cause of Earth's climate change crisis, the burden on educators to inform, challenge, and motivate students about sustainability is greater than it ever has been. On college campuses, writing intensive courses, often located within First-Year or General Education curricula, are an ideal place to take up this charge because of the flexibility of their content and the high volume of students that they reach. In this volume, a varied group of composition instructors with wide ranges and types of experiences provides best practices for bringing issues surrounding climate change into the writing classroom. From literature-based composition and creative writing courses to design thinking workshops to seminars "against sustainability," the authors in this volume lay out a multitude of possibilities for blending writing and environmental concerns that fellow practitioners can easily adopt or modify for their own use.

The human species is in a rather precarious situation. Poverty, the energy and financial crises, and above all the challenge of climate change mean that our civilization has come to a dangerous edge. Our safety nets-on both collective and individual levels-havebeen removed.Can we create a future that allows for a dignified society and a peaceful world? With a change of consciousness and a new spirituality, we may. Authors Judy McAllister, Erik van Praag, and Jan Paul van Soest bring to bear their diverse experience in the fields of sustainability, leadership, and entrepreneurialism on the challenge of building a radically different belief system about life such an endeavor will require. Along with the wisdom of international opinion leaders-including management consultant Peter Senge; Jeroen van der Veer, the former CEO of Royal Dutch Shell; cultural creative Paul Ray; Herman Wijffels, former governor at the World Bank; and others-Earth Fever delves into what is needed to bring about this essential new way of thinking."Links a crisp and clear explanation of the climate problem to aspiritual quest for solutions... Earth Fever is something special... Read it and subsequently do something."-Pierre de Winter, in Platform for Managers and Professionals"Ends with a positive, hopeful scenario. Living more consciously is not only good for our planet, but also for ourselves... The fever can be decreased, we can become healthy again."-Lisette Thooft, in Happinez"Inspiring... The authors show that there is a third way, a path that weaves between doomsday thinking and unfounded optimism..."-Derk Hueting and Klaas van Egmond, in Milieu

The Section I of the book entitled The Immanent Disaster : A Vision of Climate Change consists of Ch. I to IX. It discusses that every event/organism is governed by immutable laws of Life, by Cosmic Consciousness, by Life Field. The truth of man or the truth of nature is the Oneness or Wholeness of Life. Only the Intelligence of Love and Compassion can resolve the problems of life. The Section II of the book is entitled Creativity and Innovation and consist of Ch. X to XXI. If the researcher is interested in profit making [materialism], the intuition falls to innovation [symbolic-dualistic frame of reference]. The research will have to repeat the whole process of quantum leap form innovation to intuition. Hideki Yukawa, Nobel prize in physics, wrote, The need for a reform is not without, but within . Mutation is not in future, it can only be now. Prof. R.K. Pachauri, in November 2007 predicted that only a few years are left to avert the worst. The Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh releases an Action Plan on Climate Change on June 30, 2008.We need Understanding, Direct Perception, Freedom, Science of the Wholeness of Life and art of living in Universal Consciousness. If India is to avoid the crisis of turning into disaster, it has to understand Consciousness here and now and to live that understanding.

Climate Psychologist Zhiwa Woodbury, M.A., J.D., provides the missing narrative for how we got into this mess over climate change, and more importantly, how we can still get out of it. His message is both simple and personal: we are being called on to change the way we think and feel about this existential crisis. It is not so much a political or technological crisis as it is a cultural and spiritual crisis, and as Pope Francis has remarked, this crisis is asking us to reconsider what it means to be human. The kind of change that is needed to effectively respond to the climate crisis will happen one mind at a time... and then all at once. Beginning here, with you. This book is designed to change your mind and open your heart, and once you read it you will become part of the solution, not part of the problem.

Longlisted for the PEN America/E.O. Wilson Prize for Literary Science Writing "Well worth the read. . . . [A] prescient handoff to the next generation of scholars." —The Washington Post From "one of the world’s foremost thinkers" (Bill Moyers), a profound, hopeful, and timely call for an emerging new collective consciousness to combat climate change Over his long career as witness to an extreme twentieth century, National Book Award-winning psychiatrist, historian, and public intellectual Robert Jay Lifton has grappled with the profound effects of nuclear war, terrorism, and genocide. Now he shifts to climate change, which, Lifton writes, "presents us with what may be the most demanding and unique psychological task ever required of humankind," what he describes as the task of mobilizing our imaginative resources toward climate sanity. Thanks to the power of corporate-funded climate denialists and the fact that "with its slower, incremental sequence, [climate change] lends itself less to the apocalyptic drama," a large swathe of humanity has numbed themselves to the reality of climate change. Yet Lifton draws a message of hope from the Paris climate meeting of 2015 where representatives of virtually all nations joined in the recognition that we are a single species in deep trouble. Here, Lifton suggests in this lucid and moving book that recalls Rachel Carson and Jonathan Schell, was evidence of how we might call upon the human mind—"our greatest evolutionary asset"—to translate a growing species awareness—or "climate swerve"—into action to sustain our habitat and civilization.

A cautionary but optimistic book about the world’s changing climate and the fate of humanity, from Christiana Figueres and Tom Rivett-Carnac—who led negotiations for the United Nations during the historic Paris Agreement of 2015. The authors outline two possible scenarios for our planet. In one, they describe what life on Earth will be like by 2050 if we fail to meet the Paris Agreement’s climate targets. In the other, they lay out what it will be like to live in a regenerative world that has net-zero emissions. They argue for confronting the climate crisis head-on, with determination and optimism. The Future We Choose presents our options and tells us what governments, corporations, and each of us can, and must, do to fend off disaster.
