I am taking action to express my growing sense of fear about what climate change will bring us in the future and the feeling of sadness and mourning that I already feel at the disappearance of the once healthy nature around me. When I walk in the woods (which I love to do), I feel the higher temperatures in winter and miss the snow. In spring, I worry about nature being out of sync, with flowers blooming too early and insects arriving too late to pollinate them and eat their nectar. I watch nervously as the trees lose their leaves in summer due to longer droughts, and in autumn I worry about the animals that have to survive the winter with less and less food available to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But giving up is not an option! That is why I am happy to use my knowledge of climate communication and the connection between humans and nature for SR (and beyond) to make a difference, especially now that we can still make that difference. For me, climate change is not a hopeless cause as long as there are people committed to a different future!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
