Speaker: Eugene Chislenko
Combatting climate change requires a set of skills that allow us to address the problem constructively rather than focus solely on threats and the possibility of failure. Climate skills are not specialized: they include such familiar actions as listening, raising issues, making connections, starting groups, creating art, and demonstrating care. Eugene Chislenko, Professor of Philosophy at Temple University, explains how deploying these skills can lead to meaningful climate action and institutional change. Chislenko, who learned climate organizing with the youth organization The Sunrise Movement, is co-founder and steering committee chair of Philosophers for Sustainability.
