How does climate healing work?

It is a strange contradiction: everyone knows how dramatic the global situation is, but our reaction to this life-threatening situation bears no relation to it. We pretend it's still a long way off. So we can avoid anger, sadness and pain - and drive blindly against the wall. Jack Adam Weber challenges us to face our pain, because this is where the source of strength lies to initiate the necessary change: in us and thus in the world.

This book does not simply issue a recipe, but rather it reflects the causes of the climate crisis that lie within ourselves - and that need to be addressed there. Building on this, we can take the steps towards healing; and even if the healing is not entirely successful: This book offers helpful instructions on how to develop resilience in order to survive the climate crisis.
How can we "fight" the climate crisis? The answer is: not at all. According to Jack Adam Weber, the idea of ​​fighting the climate crisis is one of the reasons we are so persistently confronted with it today. Seeing the climate catastrophe as something to fight against is just another expression of our regrettable lack of connection

• with the earth,
• with our fellow human beings
• and with ourselves.

Weber describes this bond as our »triangle of resilience relationships«. The alienation from everything that really matters to us is in truth the main cause of the impending extinction of all life on our earth.
Instead of looking at climate disruption as something that needs to be combated, Weber encourages us to see this crisis as a wound inflicted on us that calls for healing. Climatic disruption is less of a threat that descends on us from the outside than of a shadow that arises from within. So it is a wound that, if we consciously work on it, can make us whole again and benefit the earth.
This is what this book is about: Our personal and collective integrity is directly related to the wholeness and integrity of the earth. If we concentrate solely on the external healing of our planet, we miss the opportunity to use the desecration and destruction of nature as an opportunity for a renewal of ourselves, as a spiritual and spiritual path of initiation. If we embark on a holistic climate model of "togetherness" with our whole self, that is, if we recognize the mutual interweaving and dependency of everything with everything, we will bring about a more comprehensive and permanent change.
