"Noctcaelador has been found to relate to feelings of connectedness with nature and attitudes favoring protecting dark skies
from light pollution. Given that #connectedness with nature relates to both well-being and behaviors which protect the planet, understanding the foundations of #noctcaelador could be an important area of study regarding reactions to, and attitudes towards, natural environments."

I can't believe I'm about to defend my dissertation (in #environmentalPsychology) and go on the academic market when the entire academic establishment is being attacked from multiple fronts.
From hiring freezes to threats to academic freedom to replacement of core research skills with AI. Honestly holding very little hope for my future career. I don't even think passion is enough to get me through this

I don't. I mean, there *is* area on the desk in between me and the laptop that isn't holding anything visibly, but the open space is very important to what you might call #EnvPsych — #EnvironmentalPsychology.
Clutter drives me mad. As crazy or stupid as it sounds, I *need* my desk to look like an Apple store, as much as is reasonably possible.
And more on that wonderful word "motonormativity" (And I have heard people in public meetings asserting we cannot eliminate pedestrian fatalities,so we should just "accept the risk" -so it's not just in the UK this applies

Last Saturday, my colleague Jana Köhler and I had the opportunity to present the topic of #EnvironmentalPsychology in relation to the climate crisis at the KISS THE GLOBE-Event in Vienna.
My favourite quote from Jana: ”We should focus on the fact that we need [...] a majority that does *something* instead of few people that do *everything*.”
The take-aways I hope we could make the audience remember: (1/4)
A starter pack of academics, researchers, and organisations active in #EnvironmentalPsychology (the application of psychology to environmental issues, such as climate change, and human-environment interactions.

Nice summary:

At its core, environmental psychology is problem-oriented. Solutions are derived from studying physical settings and understanding the direct impact these environments have on people. For instance, incorporating windows, high ceilings, and controllable lighting can reduce feelings of crowding and enhance well-being.
