In this episode, I share the four social-science-backed reasons for why you need to be heavily immersed in images of the positive eco future you are working to create. We'll cover the psychology of motivation, technical problem-solving, leadership, and systems-change.

This epsides explores the deeper reasons why I put together the new Ecopia Store at ecopiastore.com where you can purchase art prints, hoodies, t-shirts, and calendars that show positive eco-futures. For years, I've struggled to get access to high quality environmental reimagings of cities. I started creating an abundance of my own in MidJurney and have selected favorites available as prints on the new Ecopia Store.

These images aren't just inpsiring and fun; they are critical ingredients to building your own energy and building social movements of change. It's the green "I have a dream" speech and it's fundamental to rolling out change.
