As the progressive and regenerative-orientated spaces in the U.S. (and the world) reel from the election of a climate denier (amongst other things), there is a wide array of analysis, opinions, suggestions, prayers, songs, and gatherings (both online and in-person). We’ve pulled a few together.
Wherever you are in your process, we hope you might find some of these resources helpful.
