Abstract

Series 1: Lifestyle as Systems Change The guests in our lifestyle series are all “walking the walk.” They have integrated climate consciousness into their everyday lives and ways of being. For these experts, climate action is not a discrete choice, but an intrinsic part of their lives. From them, we can learn how to transform our own practices and mindsets to be more sustainable and future-focused. In this episode, Haleemah Sadiah shares with Eric her journey as a climate activist and designer. She discusses how she uses systems thinking in her life and work, her participatory design work with communities in India and the US, and how creating spaces that bring people together can plant seeds for larger systemic changes.
