Zaneta helps clients turn biodiversity and climate liability risks into opportunities for her clients. As any professional working in this area, she spends her days reading the narratives of fear and shame. Many of them present a grim or even a doomsday picture of our common future.
The current narratives are largely fear or shame based, says Zaneta. “Fear completely inhibits us from imagining our shared future. Shame is paralysing and more often than not leads to denial or backlash.”
“We need to change the narrative about climate change to bring everyone on board. This is where reframing may help…If we remove fear and shame and instead approach it with neutrality, our future becomes visible and attainable for us all.”
