Thanatologist Kriss Kevorkian (@agrievingworld) talks about environmental grief, coping with covid, why we need to laugh at tragedy and much more with Skaana (@skaanapod) host Mark Leiren-Young (@leirenyoung). Kriss came up with the terms “environmental grief” and “ecological grief” and she developed these concepts by working with people working for the southern resident orcas.“I help support people who are dealing with environmental grief or ecological grief, or just the grief that people are feeling from all the chaos in the world today.”“If a corporation can have rights, I think Mother Nature should.”Please join the virtual book launch for Orcas of the Salish Sea – for elementary school students – and the board book Big Whales, Small World – May 1 2020 at noon PST on Facebook Live courtesy of the National Arts Centre of Canada and #CanadaPerforms.Skaana connects you to stories about oceans, eco-ethics and the environment.Join the Pod…… https://www.patreon.com/skannaSkaana home….. skaana.org“Your Magical Week” – meditation with Rayne Benu…. digital-enlightenment.netFacebook……….. https://www.facebook.com/skaanapod/Twitter…………… https://twitter.com/skaanapodThe Killer Whale Who Changed the World… http://amzn.to/2pRNU1q Orcas Everywhere… http://www.orcaseverywhere.comCheck out our new theme song on YouTube:Links:Legal rights for the Salish Sea: http://legalrightsforthesalishsea.org/The Climate Reality Project: https://www.climaterealityproject.org/ Global Earth Repair Foundation: https://globalearthrepairfoundation.org/Support Kriss Kevorkian:Website: https://drkkevorkian.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/agrievingworldFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/agrievingworld/Support the Cowboy Junkies:This episodes featured song “Breathing”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hez9al5ny50Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cowboyjunkies/Twitter: https://twitter.com/cowboyjunkiesWebsite: cowboyjunkies.comSubscribe to the Skaana newsletter at Substack: https://skaanapod.substack.com/Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/skaana Hosted on Acast.
