Climate Cafe - July
Advertisement
Climate Cafe PDX comes to the great outdoors!
Bring a chair or something to sit on, and we'll have a couple of extra chairs. Since the event is outdoors, we are not requiring masks, but folks are still welcome to mask.
We'll be kicking off the convo by talking about the season that we've become familiar with this time of year - wildfire season. Come share your worries and thoughts around this new "season," and anything else on your mind.
💚 WHAT (IS A CLIMATE CAFE)
-An informal, open, respectful, confidential space to safely share emotional responses and reactions related to the climate and environmental emergency (i.e. a “container”).
-A space for exploration of thoughts, feelings and experiences rather than what we are DOING about the climate crisis.
-A quiet, reflective experience - a haven from usual busyness and activity.
Note: a Climate Cafe is NOT a clinical space, or a replacement for therapy.
💚 WHO (IS HOSTING THIS CAFE)
Rissa (she/her) has years of experience facilitating groups in various settings, and have an interest in climate emotions, group support structures, and the intersection of systemic issues.
Matthew (he/they) is an experienced grass-roots organizer on animal and environmental issues, and loves connecting with nature through photography and poetry.
Galen (he/him) is a longstanding member of community events across the Portland Metro Area and loves to find the joy (and puns) in things. Please ask him about Ted Lasso, it will make his day.
💚 QUESTIONS?
