Climate science is over 170 yrs old but climate denial is less than 30 yrs old. It didn't exist until the impacts of climate change shifted from future to present, implying action was needed. The goal of denial isn't to question science: it's to delay action, as long as possible.

Honestly, I'm tired of UBI pilots. They've tried them in a bunch of countries, they've all worked. They've all increased economic activity, allowed people to make better choices for themselves, let people set up businesses or escape poverty or escape abuse. Can we just implement?

If someone had taught me how compound interest worked during high school and that it can work for & against you, I probably would’ve made one or two decisions differently that would’ve transformed my life financially. So yeah, personal finance should absolutely be taught in schools.

The task of our generation is to hold within ourselves the juxtaposition of a tragic realization that we are living in an age of profound decline, and a simultaneous joyful realization that within us there is a capacity to repair and begin again.

My first job upon arrival in the UK was a janitor. I’d say good morning & not receive a response. Today I’m an NHS psychiatrist & I said good morning to my colleague cleaning floors. The smile on his face was priceless. We each play an important role & must be respectful. – at Lewisham, London

This has profound implications for Climate Aware therapy. This article documents the ways in which our current model of individualized, private mental health care mirrors and reproduces structural inequity:

.@rgay said in a panel earlier this year, “Poverty didn’t radicalize me. Privilege radicalized me.”
I have great healthcare this year for the first time in my life, and I know what she means. Everyone should have access to these options w/o regard to proximity to privilege.

The modern condition is mostly trying to do things on your own that people have historically achieved with a large support network and wondering why you're tired all the time.

People don’t connect childhood trauma to adult behaviors because they don’t fully understand what’s traumatic when you’re a child.
As children, we don’t have logic, we only have feelings

I taught the med students on OB/GYN this week and I could see the frustration on their faces when for question after question on the pathophys/treatment of COMMON diseases like fibroids, endometriosis, PCOS etc. I kept having to say “we don’t know, we just don’t know that yet”.
