How to Make Climate Action More Enjoyable with Elizabeth & Jiaying Zhao

About this episode

What if fighting climate change could actually make you happier? Elizabeth Dunn and Jiaying Zhao, psychology professors at the University of British Columbia, explore how joy, social connection, money, food, transportation, and everyday choices intersect with climate action. They challenge the idea that being environmentally responsible has to mean guilt, sacrifice, or giving up the things we enjoy, showing how positive emotions can help us build habits that last. Drawing from their new book, Leave the Lights On, they also explain why some small environmental choices matter far less than where we live, where we keep our money, how we get around, and what we eat. Elizabeth and Jiaying offer a refreshing framework for making meaningful climate choices without exhausting our limited time and attention. -- Guy Kawasaki is on a mission to make you remarkable.
