Show Notes

Welcome to Communicating Care, a podcast of the Just Transition Collaborative at the University of Colorado Boulder where we talk about the ways environmental and climate justice advocacy are motivated by, express, and foster care. On this podcast we listen more deeply to people who have made headlines for making a difference to learn from their insights for successful creative climate communication behavior change.

I'm the host, Professor Phaedra Pezzullo and, today, our guest is Dr. Gregory J. Seigworth, the Managing Editor of Capacious: Journal for Emerging Affect Inquiry. He is co-editor of a Duke University Press collection of essays on affect and has a second affect theory reader forthcoming in 2023. Greg is a professor in the Department of Communication and Theater at Millersville University in the US, where he hosted two international affect studies conferences in 2015 and 2018.
