  • What’s Ragnarök got to do with climate change?

    What’s Ragnarök got to do with climate change?
    Nov 14 2024
    Ragnarök isn’t just an ancient Norse myth that describes the destruction of the universe and the rebirth of a new world after the cataclysm, it’s a model for how we can tell new stories of climate resilience. Contemporary folklorist Lauren Fadiman joins Climate Curious to share how ancient legends can help us overcome the challenges using the power of storytelling, to break and remake the way we see the world. After all, if we’ve done it before, we can do it again! Recorded live at TED Countdown 2024 in Brussels.

    How the Pacific Climate Warriors took back their story

    Turning pity into power, the Pacific Climate Warriors reclaimed the narrative to bring a new meaning to climate action taking place in climate vulnerable nations in the Pacific Islands. A founder of the Pacific Climate Warriors and Beyond the Narrative, Fenton Lutunatabua joins Climate Curious to share why the narratives we tell ourselves and others about our experiences, history, and potential are vitally important to not just get right; but to show nuance and shade, and to honour people’s real feelings.
