Someone who I love told me that they’re feeling a lot of anxiety about climate change. I didn’t know what to say.
I am devastated about the incalculable suffering that is to come, but I’ve kind of compartmentalized it. I didn’t start it and I can’t fix it. (Yes, I can help a little.)
Has anyone been on a journey with climate anxiety? What has helped you?
@rmondello my wife has gone on this journey.
one key bit is that while there much to despair about, there is still a lot of opportunity to improve outcomes. obviously there are a lot of NP-hard (National Politics) problems but there are also a lot of local opportunities e.g. getting heat pumps for schools and electric garbage trucks.
i second the recommendation for @kathhayhoe
she is a believer in raising awareness and engaging in activism to build political will to counter fossil fuel power
