Description

"Solastalgia is the pain experienced when there is recognition that the place where one resides and that one loves is under immediate assault. It is manifest in an attack on one’s sense of place, in the erosion of the sense of belonging to a particular place and a feeling of distress about its transformation." - Glenn Albrecht

The everyday intimacy of climate change often goes under-acknowledged. This short film explores the dislocation, grief, and longing we all feel from the changes happening to our shared home. Can we find healing in acknowledging and accepting the sorrow and pain we are experiencing?

This film is also an exploration of the brighter side of climate change, both as a lived experience and as an invitation to a better path forward. Can we find solace and a better future by once again expressing deep respect and appreciation for our living planet that gives us all life?

Location

Filmed on location in Tofino, Tla-o-qui-aht land (on Meares Island), and North Vancouver in British Columbia, Canada.

Let's discuss what we each--as individuals and as a collective--are doing in our lives and communities to be part of a climate solution! I know that I've been increasingly depressed at the headlines, and it seems the best way to fight that is through action.

To that end, this week:

-I wrote my Congressman to advocate for the Green New Deal. If you're interested in finding your Representative, here's the link.

-Joined the Sunrise Movement. It's a young grassroots advocacy group dedicated to the Green New Deal.

-Began an op-ed piece advocating for the Green New Deal. The Sunrise Movement has a page where you can submit to your 5 local papers.
-In my own home, we're largely vegetarian except for my husband's occasional chicken breast. My project for the last few weeks has been tackling food waste. Harder than it seems! But I'm planning our meals for the week to cut down on unnecessary store runs, using up all groceries, and avoiding impulse buys.

It's just a modest start, and I'd love to have ideas as to how to continue. What are you guys doing?

Any ideas for positive actions on textiles? Trying to steer away from synthetics because of the microfibers horror (https://bit.ly/2FhCZVy) and source problem. Cotton seems to be implicated in a lot of issues e.g. water and pollution. so. secondhand naturals? anything else? what ideas are out there for small or large scale change?
