Climate Change Is Putting Us in a Funk
Manage episode 404931888 series 3389641
It’s hard to miss the signs of climate change.
The ocean’s heating, ice sheets are melting and – in places like Washington – wildfire seasons are getting longer.
But climate change isn’t just impacting our landscape: It’s also affecting our mental health.
In this episode of Crosscut Reports, host Maleeha Syed talks with Jennifer Atkinson, an associate teaching professor at the University of Washington Bothell, about the difficult emotions many of us experience with these changes – and what we can do to navigate them.
To learn more about the impact that climate change is having on our mental health, check out this episode of Human Elements.
