<p>Dear EC2 team,</p>
<p>I hope, you're all well! As you might remember, I've worked on
a book about collective climate action next to our amazing
collaboration in the EC2 project. Now, the book is finally out
there and available as an open access version: <i>The Psychology
of Collective Climate Action</i> <i>- Building Climate
Courage</i> (Routledge). I warmly invite you to explore and
share it with other researchers and practitioners working toward
socio-ecological transformation.<br>

<p data-start="949" data-end="995">Best wishes from Leipzig,</p>

<i>The Psychology of Collective Climate Action</i> tackles two key
questions: how can individuals be motivated to participate in
collective climate action, and how can climate groups become
resilient and effective? We dive deep into the psychology behind
collective action - how people build a sense of identification
with climate groups and come to believe that their collective
efforts really can make a difference. The book touches on a wide
range of topics, from anger, moral considerations, activist
burnout, and the perception of protests, to general theories of
socio-ecological change.<br>
<br>
If you’re a practitioner, you’ll find:<br>
- Key drivers of collective climate action - and how to foster
them<br>
- Real stories and examples from the climate movement<br>
- Reflective exercises to stay motivated and grounded<br>
- A source of courage in the face of the climate crisis<br>
<br>
If you’re a scientist, you’ll get:<br>
- A clear, up-to-date overview of research in this area<br>
- Inspiration for your next research project<br>
- Teaching-ready examples and exercises<br>
- A great resource to share with your practice collaborators, so
they can understand your research better<br>
