The UCL Energy Institute of the University College London has invited Dr. Renee Lertzman, a strategic communications specialist focusing on the deep psychological dimensions of sustainability, to talk about her current research.
In the seminar, Dr. Lertzman, currently teaching at the Royal Roads University in Canada, addresses how we perceive environmental threats and climate change, not only cognitively but also emotionally!
