Rabbi Ora Nitkin-Kaner (RRC ’16) is a climate change chaplain who has a private practice entitled “Exploring Apocalypse” that helps folks acknowledge, confront, and move through the overwhelm and existential fear gripping so many of us as we see the harm our way of life is causing the world around us. She served as the rabbi of Ann Arbor Reconstructionist Congregation for five years.
The longer I work as a climate-change chaplain, the more I’ve come to believe that it’s not change we hate so much as stepping into the unknown without a map or a guide.
