The Psychology Behind Climate-Change Inaction

Our educational system has not really explained why climate change has been addressed so timidly. The mystery of our inaction lies deep within us, and I will try here to offer some insight from depth psychology.

Why is truth being discounted and evaded?

Some people simply deny that climate change is a problem while others accept the reality of it but decline to take steps to reduce their own car

Quotes by Peter Michaelson (?)

“Liberation from self-sabotage requires an understanding of how we co-create the life we experience. We are not innocent victims suffering at the cruel hands of fate. Rather, we participate in the circumstances of our lives by giving consent, consciously or unconsciously, to much of the pleasure or the pain we experience.”
― Peter Michaelson, Freedom From Self-Sabotage: How to Stop Being Our Own Worst Enemy

“Once we understand that the self-aggression emanating from the inner critic consists mostly of “empty words,” or invalid and exaggerated accusations (the slightest actual misdemeanor is proclaimed a felony), we no longer take the words and accusations to heart. On an inner level, we are now able to neutralize or deflect these accusations. Eventually, the accusations themselves become muted. Before long, the inner critic becomes just a pale shadow of its former self.”
