An interdisciplinary team of physicians, scientists and environmental advocates collaborating on the Mindful Climate Action (MCA) project aims to match the latest science on mindfulness meditation with climate change education to achieve a lasting impact on health and the environment. Our 8-week mindfulness-based wellness and sustainability program empowers individuals with essential skills to combat climate change in their daily activities, while simultaneously improving overall health and well-being. The MCA initiative is the first of its kind to incorporate mindfulness with climate education, and to examine the relationship between an individual’s carbon footprint and health.
