Climate Circles are invitations to name what aches—grief, rage, fear, numbness, even fleeting hope—and to let those feelings breathe in the company of others. Rooted in deep listening and collective care, this practice reminds us we are not alone, and that feeling fully is part of learning to relate differently.
On this land—in the presence of histories that endure, wounds that remember, and futures that are being reimagined—we will sit together and grieve what has been lost, tend to what still remains, and ask what kind of commitments are possible now.
