'Power, Love, and a Sound Mind: Finding Hope in the Climate Crisis'.
About this Event
Most people around the world are worried about climate change, yet few are doing anything about it. Why the gap? Climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe argues that the answer lies not in more data, but in the terrain mapped out by James McCosh more than a century ago: the meeting place of science, faith, and the human mind. Drawing on McCosh's legacy, Hayhoe connects climate science and Christian belief with the latest findings from psychology and neuroscience. The result is an unlikely convergence: it turns out that what the apostle Paul called a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind is exactly what today's research tells us is needed to turn worry into action, and despair into hope.
