Alarming News from NASA

The news that NASA may shut down its carbon-monitoring satellites has caused understandable alarm.

These satellites have been described as the gold standard for tracking carbon dioxide and monitoring climate change. Led by Trump, the closure is part of a series of cuts aimed at undermining climate science at its source.

For anyone who follows climate news, it is easy to swing from hope and optimism to despair.

Fortunately, there is a way to become less reliant on the media to tell us how we should feel.  By discovering practices for a healthier nervous system, we adopt a more grounded approach, becoming more resilient and able to see beyond the headlines.

With a greater perspective, we realise that there is always another way, becoming empowered as we tap into the infinite potential for solutions, closer to home.

Fortunately, no single nation can halt the global transition away from fossil fuel reliance that is already well underway. Even as some systems falter, others move forward.
