In climate change fight, doomerism is out. Laughter is in 
Even the words fight climate change take 
us in a particular direction takes us 
into a place of being combatants. 
And for me, I think about healing more than 
I do fighting. 
So if we don't center joy 
now here in the process of bringing about this more vibrant, livable future, 
I think we actually pattern ourselves into something that isn't what we want. 
We have a really challenging gap between climate concern, which the majority of people hold, and climate engagement or climate action, which only a very small percentage of people are doing. 
If we want people to come off the sidelines 
and into the work, it's got to feel good 
in some way, right? It can't be just about finger wagging and telling people what they've done wrong and all the things they need to do if they want to be good and right and better. 
We have to have more openness. 
We have to throw a better party.
