How Hope and Optimism Can Help The Environmental Movement: A Discussion With The Climate Optimist

Hopeful Environmentalist by Taylor Ganis

Episode notes

Are you an environmentalist who is angry (kind of like our old podcast name)? In this episode, we speak with the Climate Optimist herself, Anne Therese Gennari, about how we can shift from angry activists, to optimistic and resourceful activists. We dive into research about how the brain works, and how optimistic mindsets can actually be more beneficial to the environmental movement. Also discussed is how we can make that shift from angry to optimistic!
