How does our mind process the issue of climate change? Why do some of us seem to ignore the warning signs while others are driven to action? How can we use psychology to help us tackle the issue of global warming? Join us as we welcome Todd Fink to help us understand these concepts. An expert in addictions counseling and mindfulness meditation, Todd will show us how mindfulness techniques and embracing nature and community can help us navigate the social landscape of the climate crisis and alleviate the grief and anxiety associated with it. Todd’s lecture will be followed by a community discussion and a mindfulness hike with Todd the following day.

Note: Due to the uncertainty of the Covid-19 situation in May, we are planning on holding an interactive Zoom lecture and will pivot to an in-person lecture if possible.
