CCL Climate Café – Climate Cafes offer a structure for an informal, open, respectful, confidential space to share emotional responses and reactions related to the climate safely. This Cafe will be a co-facilitated group space to explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences rather than what we are DOING about the climate crisis. Cafes are founded on the belief that emotional reckoning often precedes or is needed to sustain effective action since without a depth of self-understanding, false starts, over-activation, or burnout can result. We'll be offering the Action Team’s first Climate Cafe on November 12 at 8 pm ET, 5 pm PT. 1 hour. Sign up here: https://bit.ly/CCLClimateCafe
Circles of Personal Resilience – Circles of Personal Resilience provide the chance to express the grief or mourning you experience around climate change, as well as celebration and gratitude for what you love about our world. Hurricanes and political angst are welcome too!
