About Generation 1.5
Generation 1.5 is a culmination of initiatives that aim to drive a change in the way we think about climate change and raise awareness on issues surrounding it. The project is built on the principle of a psychological and discursive approach to changing responses to the climate crisis. The relationship between climate change and human cognition is paramount, and informs all of our initiatives. In this endeavor, the project aims to uncover how the human mind grapples with existential threats and how cognitive biases shape the current environmental discourse, thus highlighting how psychology can inform our responses to climate change. To create impact, we aim to work on comprehensive, educational, and engaging resources and raise capital to empower citizens and organizations alike, in taking on this fight to protect our planet.
