We return to our conversation with Albuquerque community organizer Antonio Maestas to hear how organizing has become akin to spiritual action for him. "Social movements are spiritual, and the principles of environmental justice are doctrine."

In a conversation with Matt Goldberg, social psychologist and postdoctoral associate at the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication, we learn about the sometimes convoluted ways we defend our beliefs and discuss Matt's research in the field of climate communications.

The first in our series of bonus content interviews, this one features a conversation with the co-founders of the Forum on Religion and Ecology, Yale professors Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim.

In Episode Five we discuss the role of institutions in climate action. We visit Yale University to learn more about their school of forestry and environmental studies, and along the way have conversations about fossil fuel divestment and the role of the church.

In Episode 4, we consider the spiritual challenges of vanishing homelands and the ethical implications of borders by drawing out the connection between climate change and the movement of people worldwide.

In Episode Three, we visit Navajo Nation to discuss modern colonialism and its relationship to climate change. Hear how people are fighting for their health and cultural traditions in the midst of these challenges.

Episode Two takes us to Albuquerque, New Mexico where we learn about the city’s biggest environmental justice concerns and the state’s struggle to transition to clean energy.

Join us in our Season Two premiere as we hear from Baptists, Yogis, activists, and homeowners, all learning to navigate the uncertain future of their community in the face of a proposed pipeline and compressor station. See more at https://shiftingclimates.com/season-2-ep-1/.

Shifting Climates is back! Join us for Season 2, starting on May 28, 2019.

In our season finale, we revisit three interviews who help us understand the layered meanings of "being in community," especially when it comes to climate change. We depart from Season One with a set compass, fresh legs, and many unanswered questions.

Will technology get us through the climate crisis? Can capitalism and climate change mitigation co-exist? As Season One draws to a close, we confront some of our deepest uncertainties.

Trash or treasure? This episode takes us into the world of weeds and waste. Hear how our assumptions about waste can be damaging environmentally, theologically, and socially.

In Episode Seven we tease out the connections between our treatment of the Earth and our treatment of human bodies, particularly those of women and people of color.

A conversation with Native American farmer, pastor, and professor Randy Woodley causes us to reflect on our role in creation while processing the recent IPCC report.

In Episode Five, we talk about environmental amnesia – disconnection from the natural world. Hear how food can be a tool for connecting with both our eco-systems and our neighbors.

In Episode Four we look at our relationship to the land through the eyes of farmers and learn how changing weather patterns and economic constraints impact food production.

This episode takes us from Texas to West Virginia to Nepal to hear accounts of devastating floods. What are the things disaster can’t take away, and where do we find them?

Conversations hit close to home in Episode Two. We make some unexpected friendships and begin to realize that the implications of climate change go beyond just natural disasters.

In this premiere episode we talk about the essence of justice. In the midst of drastic ecological, political, and economic shifts, who is being harmed the most? Who is being left behind?

Stay tuned for the release of our first episode on January 1, 2019!
