Hi everyone! Today i talked with Yvonne, the founder of @climatejournalproject
Yvonne is a California native with an M.A in Food Studies from NYU. She is the founder of The Climate Journal Project, a space and practice to alleviate environmental anxiety and fears. The project addresses the intersection between wellness and environmentalism -- helping people become closer to the planet through a climate focused journal practice. A series of climate journal books, centered around individual and planetary healing has launched on Kickstarter (bit.ly/climatejournal2021) In her free time, Yvonne enjoys cooking plant-based foods, surfing, and hanging out with her friends, family and of course, her dog Amelia.
With the goal to address climate anxiety and environmental grief, The Climate Journal Project uses the power of reflection and journaling to create a space for self and planetary healing. The journal, practice and workshops empowers individuals and communities to stay connected to their planetary relationships, while also setting planetary boundaries. We aim to guide participants towards a set of plans and actions that will help reduce one's carbon footprint. We also explore topics around environmental justice, climate education, and economic insecurities.
