Climate change often feels overwhelming, leaving us with a sense of despair. To move forward, we need positive visions of a clean, green, and just world — yet these depictions are often lacking. In this episode, Tory Stephens explores why collective visioning and hopeful climate storytelling is a useful tool to creating a better future for all. From his personal journey of skepticism to embracing the power of imagination, he'll demonstrate how envisioning a better future can supercharge our climate efforts across creative projects, policy, advocacy and more. Tory Stephens creates opportunities that transform organizations and shift culture. He is a resource generator and community builder for social justice issues, people and movements. He currently works at Grist Magazine as their climate fiction creative manager, and he uses storytelling to champion climate justice and imagine green, clean, and just futures, including through Grist's "Imagine 2200" annual series.  This talk is part of the series "Collective Climate Action: Inspired Organizing for Our Future" produced by the Spring Creek Project at Oregon State University.
