Synopsis "Parenting in a Changing Climate: Tools for cultivating resilience, taking action, and practicing hope in the face of climate change (in English)"
What's it like to wake up to the reality of climate change-while also trying to raise small children? As parents, how do we act on our values when we're already exhausted from the day-to-day challenges of parenting?After an unconventional journey to motherhood that led to the birth of her twins in 2016, Elizabeth Bechard found herself struggling with an unshakeable sense of anxiety and grief about climate change during the most care-intensive season of parenthood. As a coach, she had also noticed a troubling trend of rising climate dread in her clients, all of whom were struggling with various forms of infertility and pregnancy loss.Parenting in a Changing Climate blends intimate memoir with Bechard's experience as a coach and researcher, drawing on science from the study of climate psychology, science communication, health disparities, resilience, and behavior change. This book offers practical tools, resources, and inspiration for parents who are worried about the planet future generations will inherit and who want to find ways to cultivate resilience and take action on behalf of the children they love.Readers struggling to find their place in the climate movement will take away a clearer answer to the question our children will undoubtedly someday ask: what did you do once you knew the truth about climate change?
