About this Event
As climate disruption reshapes landscapes, politics, and daily life, a deeper question lingers beneath the headlines: How do we live—fully, honestly, boldly—within this moment? Where do we turn for steadiness and imagination as we find our way forward?
Join climate leader Dr. Katharine K. Wilkinson (co-editor of All We Can Save) and celebrated poet Jane Hirshfield for readings and a conversation about Dr. Wilkinson’s new book, . Together, they will explore how we orient ourselves within a changing world and what poetry can offer those of us seeking courage, clarity, and pathways to contribution.
Whether you are steeped in climate work or newly curious, whether poetry is a familiar companion or something you rarely encounter, you’ll leave this conversation feeling nourished, grounded, and more equipped for the journey ahead.
