Climate psychology: how to achieve sustainable development. Andersson K.

For some reason, it happened that we began to put an equal sign between a change in behavior in order to preserve the climate and change consumer habits in private life-as if our life is limited to home and consumption. But this idea is erroneous. The behavior covers much more different areas. This is all we do. We make state decisions. We write polemical articles in the newspaper. We discuss the questions of the climate with each other, fighting for a more stringent environmental policy - all this is our behavior. And if we want to achieve radical changes, we must abstract from the details and choose actions that have a strong and long -term effect.

The book calls to look at the problem of preserving the climate from the point of view of the planet as a whole. He teaches how to evaluate the effectiveness of his actions aimed at saving the Earth. It is not enough just to reduce and prohibit the hope of preventing a climatic disaster. We must change yourself and learn to live in a new way.

The game is not lost. Humanity still has a chance to slow down destructive processes and prevent a climatic disaster. Experts warn us again and again. But, despite the seriousness of the situation, many continue to live in the old way, changing nothing in their lives. They reason, argue, do their own business... How is this possible? Why don’t we understand that time does not tolerate and it's time to act?

The book tells how to work more effectively for the benefit of nature to prevent the climatic crisis with the help of psychology. You will learn why all the previous environmental strategies did not give a result. You will understand how you can achieve a truly long effect and sustainable development. And you will see that this is not at all what the media usually calls for you.
