Mindfulness as a Pathway to Greater Climate-Sensitivity

2018, Conference

This blog explores mindfulness as an inner pathway toward greater climate sensitivity and more sustainable lifestyles. Critically engaging with technological and efficiency-focused approaches to climate mitigation, the article argues that sustainability also requires a cultural shift toward sufficiency and value-based living. Drawing on insights from neuroscience, psychology, and sustainability research, it shows how mindfulness practices can enhance self-awareness, reduce consumerist patterns, and help close the gap between environmental knowledge and everyday behaviour, thereby supporting deeper societal transformation in line with climate goals.
