Understanding Climate Change Through Art

Why aren’t we changing our behaviour? And what is it about our relationship to these issues of climate change that we’re not ready to address, or ready to admit to ourselves?
Associate Professor Dr. Astrida Neimanis, Canada Research Chair in Feminist Environmental Humanities, points to the constricting structures within larger for-profit capitalist systems based on the fossil fuel economy. She says these systems work to constrain our choices.
Through The FEELed Lab, Dr. Neimanis aims to help diverse groups develop new habits for understanding and interacting with the world.
