Is there a better way for activists to communicate in order to drive social change?

In my Environmental Ethics class we were discussing strategies of how to talk about climate change in a way that brings about community action and engagement. I watched Per Espen Stoknes' TedTalk on How to Transform Apocalypse Fatigue into Action on Global Warning and thought it offered wonderful strategies that can also help in many other social justice movements like animal and human rights issues. 

As an animal rights activist, I am often speaking to many different people and trying to find ways to connect. What I love about Per Espen Stoknes' speech is that it makes us look at the human condition. Why are we passionate about some things and not about others? How do go from disengagement to engagement? 

​Below you will find a post that I did that breaks Stoknes' steps in bite-sized pieces. Be sure to click on the photo to see them all!

Is there a better way for activists to communicate in order to drive social change? Per Espen Stoknes, advocate for environmental issues and renowned psychologist and politician, provides a clear strategy of how we can open the conversation to important issues such as climate change, animal rights and human rights issues so that we can inspire action in others.
