Britt Wray's biography

At a glance

  • Scientist studying climate change and mental health
  • Author of Generation Dread on ecological anxiety
  • Director of Stanford resilience and climate research
Britt Wray is a scientist and author who has reshaped how we understand the psychological dimensions of climate change and what they mean for collective action. She directs CIRCLE at the Stanford School of Medicine, a research initiative focused on community resilience, climate leadership, and emotional wellbeing. Her book Generation Dread explores the mental health toll of ecological crisis and has drawn praise from figures like filmmaker Adam McKay. Britt's work bridges a critical gap between climate science and human psychology. Her research demonstrates that the anxiety many people feel about environmental collapse is not a weakness to suppress but a signal worth listening to. By studying how communities process ecological grief and fear, she has developed frameworks that turn emotional overwhelm into sustained, purposeful engagement with the problems we face. Audiences leave her sessions with practical tools for managing climate distress without numbing out, a clearer understanding of why emotional honesty strengthens rather than undermines activism, and evidence-based strategies for avoiding burnout while staying committed to meaningful change. Her approach is grounded in peer-reviewed research and real-world application through her Stanford initiative. Book Britt Wray to give your audience both the science and the permission to feel their way toward effective climate action.

Why we recommend booking Britt

Britt Wray brings Stanford-backed research on climate psychology that translates ecological anxiety into sustained organisational action rather than paralysis. Her CIRCLE work gives leadership teams evidence-based frameworks for processing climate distress while maintaining strategic focus, particularly valuable when sustainability commitments risk overwhelming your people.
