But then I began to receive people's feedback. People told me that these videos really helped mitigate their climate anxiety, that they looked forward to these videos week after week and that these videos helped turn their anger and anxiety into action. So I continued making them. And in the process of finding good news stories to share, I began to pick up on trends. Week after week, institutions were divesting from fossil fuels. Week after week, land was given back to Indigenous communities. And week after week, states were implementing renewable energy standards. I never overlooked the scientific projections or data, but rather tuned in to the hard-to-find good news stories and examples of successful on-the-ground work. And in the process, I uncovered the framework that I had been yearning for: climate optimism.
