"The trigger of anxiety is not climate truth; it's the unsettling silence of inaction echoing against that truth".

I suppose we all have known there must be an end to the planet, and life as we know it, at some point. But I think the anger and despair some of us feel is that we were the generation poised to stop this particular tragedy—and didn't.
It's bad enough to have to witness the death unfold. It's all the worse that we are responsible for it.

I’m looking for links and resources relating to two new courses I’m developing for workers in Wales:
- “Climate Anxiety” both self care, helping others and taking action
- “Coping in Extreme Weather in Work” Climate Adaptation/Resilience health & safety
I’d really appreciate links, recommendations, examples of what’s worked elsewhere, etc. #Climate #mentalhealth #EcoAnxiety #ClimateAnxiety #ClimateGrief #GlobalWarming #ClimateCrisis #Training

I woke up in the middle of the night and couldn't fall asleep again. I usually listen to books or podcasts to get myself back to sleep, but last night I decided to start a new book: Kim Stanley Robninson's The Ministry for the Future.
The opening chapter describes a heat wave in which 20 million people die in India.
Instead of helping me fall asleep, it did the opposite.
