Why do I bother with #ClimateWeekNYC? It's expensive and exhausting, and I have to fly there (bad for carbon, jetlag, and I'm scared of flying). Not only do I go, but I also host/speak at about 30 events, especially #SolutionsHouse. I run (literally) between sessions with high-heels in my bag, chomping on energy bars because I rarely have time to eat. The months running up to it are like planning a wedding and I'm climatezilla. Is it ego? Bluntly, I'm too tired for ego to be worth the effort. FOMO? Screw that, I'd rather be at home. I spend my energy, and precious carbon, on events like Climate Week because of the PEOPLE. In our online, AI-saturated, atomised world it's easy to pretend that all I need is information and a wifi connection to make a difference. But that forgets one crucial element in the formula: that humans need real-live community, physical contact, inspiration, unexpected moments, rows, body-language, interpersonal chemistry and all the POWER that comes when people connect. I'm sure someone else can explain why that's all so psychologically important better than I can. I hold precious that one week with folks who otherwise I might not see, in-person, in years. I come away girded and motivated in ways I can't define. I feel safer, stronger, emboldened, part of something bigger. I have 'unscripted' conversations with a depth and intensity Zoom can't offer. I make friends in a cause to which I've dedicated my life. I build connection with folks from across the world I couldn't meet in London. So I acknowledge my HUGE privileges in getting to attend and I will squeeze every drop of change I can out of the carbon and personal energy I spend being there. Is it worth it? For me, I make sure the answer is yes. Climate Group Futerra #climateweeknyc #climateweek2024

“The plan is there, but people aren’t doing the plan because they are not motivated. They are scared, they are lost, they are confused.

Special #ClimateWeekNYC session alert! This 'Neurospicy Solutionists' session might be the first of its kind to happen at Climate Week. Autistic, ADHD, dyslexic, dyspraxic or other minority neurotype working in climate? Parent, ally or interested in how neurodivergence intersects with climate action? This will be a gentle and neurospicy-friendly gathering: sitting or standing, eye-contact optional, there will be stimming on stage! Research has revealed how minority neurotypes are a huge part of the climate and justice communities. From enhanced patten recognition to powerful justice motivation, there are superpowers that neurodivergence can offer. But adaptations are needed within the climate movement to fully welcome all neurotypes. PLEASE SHARE THIS INVITE WITH YOUR NETWORKS - you never know who might benefit from joining us. #SolutionsHouse2024 #dyslexicthinking #neurodiversityinclimate #actullyautistic Please sign up to join me 🤩
