Climate change poses an unprecedented threat to human life and yet the response, from national policy makers to individual consumers, remains tragically inadequate. The ‘Facing Climate Change’ conference on March 7th, organised jointly by Psychotherapists and Counsellors for Social Responsibility and the Centre for Psycho-Social Studies at the University of the West of England brought together 160 climate change activists, psychotherapists and social researchers to explore the human dynamics of our collective denials and failures to respond.
