Associated Press: Updated 6:02 AM PDT, April 10, 2024:

“Humanity has only two years left “to save the world” by making dramatic changes in the way it spews heat trapping emissions and it has even less time to act to get the finances behind such a massive shift, the head of the United Nations. [Climate Secretary, Simon Stiell]”

The climate emergency is often described as a "wicked" problem—one that results from numerous factors that interact in new and surprising ways to defy standard solutions—the pervasive distresses and traumas it generates are also "wicked" problems that cannot be resolved through conventional, professionally delivered, individualized clinical treatment services.

Facing our climate future will require entire neighborhoods and communities be engaged to prevent and heal the distresses and traumas generated during the long climate mega-emergency. If whole-community initiatives are launched throughout industrialized nations and worldwide, the indomitable human spirit and capacity for resilience can be activated.
