Paul Slovic examines "psychic numbing," our tendency to ignore mass tragedies despite valuing individual lives. He explains that as numbers grow, we become desensitized, failing to act against catastrophic losses from poverty, disease, climate disasters, and violence. Understanding this cognitive bias is crucial for motivating effective responses.

Dr. Slovic, a professor of psychology at the University of Oregon and President of Decision Research (which he co-founded), is a leading expert in risk perception. His extensive work, including research on global threats, has earned him numerous accolades, such as election to the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

This video, featuring Rollie from Climate Town, explains why the "carbon footprint" concept is a scam. BP oil created this idea decades ago to shift responsibility for carbon emissions from corporations to individuals, effectively an elaborate victim-blaming scheme. While individual footprints matter, their existence is largely due to fossil fuel companies like BP fighting against a transition from oil and gas.

We need your support to combat the wildlife trade fueling these extinctions. Our International Director, Sarah Uhlemann, and International Legal Director, Tanya Sanerib, will share insights into this vital work.

Rapid human population growth and overconsumption drive critical environmental crises, including the wildlife extinction crisis, habitat loss, and climate change. The Center uniquely tackles these sensitive issues that many environmental groups often overlook.

Our common-sense solutions focus on empowering women and girls, ensuring universal access to reproductive healthcare and education, and developing healthy, secure food systems. We also engage the public through initiatives like distributing over 1 million Endangered Species Condoms with memorable slogans.

Timed with World Population Day on July 11, this presentation features Kelley Dennings, Population and Sustainability Campaigner, and Sarah Baillie, Endangered Species Condoms coordinator, to discuss our vital work.
