Summary
This week in the UK, we're in the middle of a heatwave. Record-breaking temperatures, flash floods, thunderstorms and lightning fires are all bringing the climate emergency into an immediacy of awareness for many people who previously may not have wanted or been able to look at it. But in the face of this emergency, how do we talk about what's happening without instilling more fear? And how do we find the courage to actually step into action? ✨ Today's magic moment features our Triple WellBeing Storybooks ✨ In this episode we reference: Should we be trying to save the world? with Anthea Lawson - The Examined Life ( podcast episode ) 'I am helping - oh no' - Webcomicname by Alex Norris (comic strip ) When The Baddie Plans To Destroy The World! from Mitchell And Webb Are Not Helping ( short video ) Don't put economy at mercy of 'Red Ed' - Daily Mail ( online article ) Learning for Life - ThoughtBox Education ( teaching resources ) National Emergency Briefing - NEB ( film and local screenings ) There's an inconvenient movement growing... It's not rebellion, exactly. More of a quiet refusal to look away. We're inconvenient. And if you feel it, then maybe you are too. Join us. Join The Inconvenient Club from £5 a month.
