Climate In Therapy

Nathan Grossman, Olof Berglind, Malin Olofsson
2025

Seven climate scientists meet in a godforsaken meeting room to engage in circle therapy about their shared climate anxiety. Can emotional honesty be part of the solution? Open a bottle of climate anxiety. Pour the contents into a hot pot under high pressure. Then add a teaspoon of horror, a tablespoon of anger and three drops of deep disappointment in humanity. Let it all come to a boil while you invite a group of scientific researchers who don’t know each other, but know all about the fact that the end of the world is near. Let the scientists spice up the dish with their most suppressed feelings about climate change and the future of the planet. And last but not least, bring in a professional group therapist who isn’t afraid of an awkward silence to get them to sit in a circle and share their feelings with each other. ‘Climate in Therapy’ is a humorous, inventive and serious experiment in which seven climate scientists go for group therapy in a godforsaken hotel. Here they confront an academic taboo and a hitherto unknown area of research in itself: their own emotions. Therapist Richard Beck faces a tricky task with the scientists, who are much better at talking about natural disasters than what’s burning inside themselves. But who knows, maybe climate disaster can be solved if the knots in ourselves can be untied?
