We invite you to delve into our eighth issue of Explorations in Climate Psychology which is now available to download here.
Explorations is an online publication that aims to be inclusive of the different ways people are experiencing and engaging with one another on the climate and ecological crisis. It welcomes various forms of expression from analytical articles, reviews and features that promote peer-reviewed research to interviews, reflections, testimonies, poetry, art and lightly edited conversations.
This issue aims to shed a light on the reactionary mind and how we find ourselves at this moment in which the societies we live in feel more polarised than ever. Many working across climate science, communication, psychology, activism and other concerned citizens know that we deeply need to address the climate and ecological crises and outgrow belief systems that focus on extraction and pollution; whilst populist leaders employ disinformation to incite climate denial and distrust of climate policy.
The editors have found the reactionary mindset a complex and dynamic subject to investigate. This issue does not present answers, but we hope the exploration allows you to examine and reflect upon the living systems we are part of.
