Storytelling and Climate Change | Judith Black | TEDxBerkshires

How to enhance and effect change in our lives and the world around us through telling stories.

Judith Black is one of America’s finest storytellers. She is the winner of the Oracle Award, storytelling's most coveted laurel. She makes people think and laugh through retellings of history from new perspectives, tickling familial dysfunction, and ironic explorations of aging. She has performed at many venues including the Montreal Comedy Festival, The Smithsonian Institution, and in Africa.

It was a message heard many times, from John Seed, Joanna Macy, David Korten and others, that we all have important stories and that they form the heart of what we believe is possible. Constructive change is born of that. Thanks.

5:30 just a small technical correction : methan is not frozen in the permafrost. Methan is released by a microbial decomposition happening upon thawing of soil in those regions.
