Climate
Motivated by compassion, we can tackle the climate crisis. Compassion gives us the will, courage, and wisdom to make the kind of wholesale changes to society and economics that this challenge demands. Led by compassion for ourselves we can also self-soothe and comfort in response to the very natural anxiety invoked by climate change thereby ensuring we have the resilience and resources necessary for action.
