People may remember Jiaying’s Deep Dive talk “Happy Climate Action” from two years ago.

 

Psychologist Elizabeth Dunn and climate behavior scientist Jiaying Zhao challenge what we think we know about sustainable living. While most climate advice demands self-denial—eat less, travel less, want less—the authors offer a counterintuitive truth: you can make your life better while saving our species. The authors reveal how tweaking everyday decisions around food, travel, housing, and shopping can nudge us toward a tipping point of mass action—without tipping us into burnout. After so many gloom and doom books, this gives an uplift to the climate genre.
