Our third genus contains the Dragons of Social Comparison and Social Norms.  Every aspect of who we are is mediated by these Dragons: we adjust to the norms of our communities – the people we interact with, and the people we consider to be our peers around the world. As with everything, these norms are subject to change. Their flexibility is based on our collective willingness to share, and to listen. When it comes to the climate crisis, community conversations – in whatever form they may take – are integral to our ability to adapt.  To learn more about the Dragons of Climate Inaction (+ musical credits, citations, and more) visit futureecologies.net/dragons (http://futureecologies.net/dragons) – – – – –  Please note that this chapter does not contain direct reference to the ongoing protest movement against white supremacy and police brutality. However, we believe the lessons of this episode are as relevant to this cause as they are to issues of climate change.
