What is the right way to react when climate reports are signaling we are going in the right direction - big time? The Planetary Boundaries Health Check report reported in September that a 7th boundary out of nine has been breached, and the UNEP Emissions Gap report recently concluded that the world is ‘off-track’ to meet Paris climate targets and well on its way to overshoot 1.5 degrees of warming in 2030. We discuss in today’s episode how gloomy macro-news easily makes one, very understandably so, feel powerless. The risk of avoidance and/or cynicism is real, but also very unproductive when the situation calls for change. We ask ourselves what would be productive ways instead, and how it’s also fine to feel sad.
