TALK: FACING THE UNTHINKABLE
How scientists and activists manage the disturbing
reality of climate change
Thursday 24th November 7pm @
Exeter Community Centre
Talk and discussion led by Professor Paul Hoggett.
Paul will discuss research on the contrasting
ways climate scientists
and those involved in climate action have
managed the anxiety,
despair, hope, excitement and occasionally the
trauma of their practice.
Paul is one of the founders of the Climate
Psychology Alliance
which seeks to understand and work on the levels
of denial that
prevent action on climate change and initiate
and support better
discussion of the issue.
Paul Hogget, is Professor
Emeritus of Social Policy at UWE, Bristol.
He is a psychotherapist registered with the
British Psychoanalytic Council.
