PSYI-6440: The Psychology of Climate Change

Climate change has become a central issue in political, environmental, cultural, social and personal circles. Students address how ecopsychology can bring potentially healing practices to what is becoming known as the climate crisis. Beginning with an exploration of the scientific foundation of climate and the impact of increased carbon emissions, the student begins to clarify their own position in relationship to this pervasive issue. Students ask the question; how can we facilitate the kind of cultural transformation necessary to address this crisis? And, how does knowing that we are participating in changing nature and causing harm affect the development of a healing relationship with nature?
