"Most climate education focuses on policy, emissions, or technologies. Useful, but not always actionable. What many of us struggle with are the personal decisions: Where should I live? How do I plan my career? What risks matter most? How do I make decisions under accelerating uncertainty? Alex Steffen’s workshop is the first I’ve seen that actually helps answer these questions."
