    Wonderful. I hope this speaker can give another lecture on wording to diffuse conflict.

    I like how she explained that we can dehumanize a person and in doing so has a direct impact on our desired outcome.

    Well said!... polarization is a choice and we can train ourselves to stop destructive attacks and counterattacks that don't address the issue. I never thought about curiosity in the context of conflict, but it definitely makes sense... asking questions when confronted with fear, anger or sorrow to try to get to what the problem really is.

    So good! II love the curiosity aspect and not hearing the attack. That's really reshaping your mind and habit. Loved that you said it takes practice - just like dance. LOL

    Dana could change the conflict conversation: Australia being the site of the largest Nic Cad battery in the world: stored/usable renewable energy effacing Political and community conversation to action renewables as the answer as an example to the world
