In this episode I’m talking to Professor Kelly Fielding about whether human beings really have the capacity to respond to global issues like climate change to the level we need.
We discuss some of the key things human beings will need to achieve if we are to meaningfully tackle climate change as a global society, and some of the tendencies in human thinking and behaviour that might prevent us from doing this. We also explore the human capacities that might help us respond more effectively to global issues like climate change - and how we can put these into action.
Professor Fielding is based in the School of Communication and Arts at the University of Queensland in Australia, and her research broadly focusses on understanding the social and psychological determinants of environmentally sustainable behaviour.
