Abstract

Abstract Educating counselors- and psychologists-in-training about the effects of climate change, environmental degradation, and a healthy planet on human health and well-being prepares them for being problem solvers during what Kunstler calls the long emergency. This narrative describes processes for integration of such information in programs that train counselors and psychologists, including addressing how the long emergency might affect humans, how it might show up in work with clients, and what counselors and psychologists might do about the issues. The challenges of doing so while also considering the worldviews of the trainees are also discussed. Key Words: Climate change—Education—Behavior change—Attitudes—Values.
