Future Ecologies presents: The Right to Feel

From UBC Centre for Climate Justice, Future Ecologies presents "The Right to Feel," a two episode mini-series on the emotional realities of the climate crisis. The first episode, “Climate Feelings” is a collection of students’ non-fiction essays and reflections on their personal realities of living with and researching the climate crisis. The first episode opens with an introductory conversation between Naomi Klein and series producer Judee Burr that contextualizes how this class was structured and the writings it evoked. The second and final episode, “Eulogies” is based on fictional writing from the class. Students imagine and eulogize something that could be harmed by the climate emergency, and then imagine a speculative future in which action was taken to mitigate that harm.
