“Navigating Climate Grief”                       Katie Kline

                              Reports of climate and ecological grief, anxiety, and trauma have dramatically increased in the last decade.  For many of us, it seems as though our feelings about our changing planet are finally being recognized as a vital dimension of our individual and collective well-being.  So, how do we bear witness to climate change and face the truth of our grief while not succumbing to despair?  What tools can our UU faith offer to sustain us in this journey?
