Drawing on behavioral psychology and theories of self-cultivation, the author argues that green transition requires that we work actively with wellbeing, as moral beliefs, knowledge about climate change, or new understandings of the relationship between humans and nature are unlikely to bring about the necessary changes in behavior. Contrary to a widespread view, the author further argues that subjective wellbeing rather than basic needs satisfaction is the most appropriate notion of wellbeing for addressing climate change issues. The book contains both detailed philosophical arguments and concrete guidelines for how to foster a transition to more sustainable, but still sufficiently rewarding, ways of living, individually as well as collectively.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSøren Harnow Klausen\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of philosophy at the University of Southern Denmark.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52057946816786,"sku":"9781666914412","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_8c13b278-0391-4b88-8603-42b710c9726a.jpg?v=1772017876","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/gratifying-transitions-maintaining-wellbeing-in-the-face-of-climate-change-9781666914412","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
