Green Comedy & Humor
All things, even the most serious, have comical
dimensions. Poking fun at ourselves can be an antidote to losing
perspective, to seeing ourselves and our views without self-critical
awareness. At the same time, humor can be a way to communicate
around barriers, a way to get past resistance, and a way to
communicate with surprising emotional depth. And, it must be
said, during a long conference filled with serious or even ominous
presentations, a little comic relief can be, well, a relief.
