Thanks for this. My students are exploring climate change right now – reading and teaching each other about the causes and impacts. As they instruct one another and lead class discussions, they continue to ask each other what we should do about it? They have lots of ideas, most of which could benefit from the perspective of an empathic adventure! The gears in my head are turning, and I’m wondering how I might facilitate one for them in the coming months. Good food for thought (and hopefully action).

Bravo, encore, encore…!!! I especially appreciated the explanation of the distinction between affective and cognitive empathy.

I do feel as though we are so far removed, as a society, from understanding where day to day materials come from and furthermore the work other people do to get us these materials. Also, what happens to all the materials when we toss them away. Empathy is the key. I am going to have my girl scout troop watch that this evening. Thanks.
