Professor Viveka Ramel and I discuss the challenges of facing a poly-crisis, how to feel our feelings without becoming paralyzed, and how to harness our emotions into powerful action.

To follow that adventure, see my YouTube channel Artist At Law, "Sailing for Sustainability" playlist. But don't worry, I'm sure CKC will be back within a year!
