Alternate titles: Ressentant l'apocalypse; Sintiendo el apocalipsis; Предчувствие Апокалипсиса
From the disappearing wildlife in his hometown Owen Sound to the anxiety he gets from seeing news stories about the melting of Greenland, psychotherapist Anderson Todd tells us how the climate crisis shakes his view of the present and the future. Like many others, he finds it difficult to share this crushing dread and anxiety with others without turning them away. But even with the collapse of large scale civilization approaching faster than expected, Anderson still wonders if there are parts of humanity that we can be hopeful about. Collapse isn't quick and clear-cut like in the movies. Humans will still be here, and we'll still have meaningful choices to make.

Artist's Statement
When you talk to most people about this stuff, even people who do not deny climate change or it's effects, they don't want to look into the abyss. They would rather go on with their lives, business as usual, with the assumption that the "end" will come suddenly and swiftly, with them having no way to affect the outcome of their personal lives. Either all life on Earth will be extinguished dramatically or we'll fix it with magical technology.
I think part of the problem is that we've been led to assume that a collapsing or post-collapse world is one not worth living in. That if climate change isn't reversible then there's no point preparing for it or caring, that it is meaningless. And so we shy away from having very important conversations with our friends and families. That's one of the fundamental aspects of the conversation I want to change - the wrongful idea that full acknowledgement of the effects of the climate crisis is defeatist. We can have hope without resorting to toxic optimism.
