Convenient truths: Climate action leverage points for everyday people

(This is an upcoming talk I’ll be giving for a UU congregation by Zoom. It will likely be recorded and become available on their public YouTube channel; I will share the link.)

Contrary to popular belief, everyday people do have the power. And we cannot afford to wait on government or corporations. Distant centralized entities don’t have sufficient vested interest in really attacking climate change. We, the everyday people do, as climate change is destroying our homes and communities and hitting us in the wallet.

In this talk I will be sharing some very large, very accessible leverage points that are typically overlooked. And I’ll be talking about the real secret weapon, which is the stories we tell ourselves.
