#18 | Paintings, protests, and climate activism

The Tea on Sustainable Living

Nov 22 2022 • 36 mins

Would YOU throw soup at a Van Gogh painting?

In today’s episode, we discuss some recent examples of climate activism, how we feel about them, and what our climate activism barriers are.

Because there’s no one right way to tackle this climate crisis, but does that mean we can’t contribute a bit more to these organizations? Even if it’s just starting conversations? Are we getting too caught up in the acts themselves?

Grab some tea, get comfy, and hit that play button.
