Oh ... I have been suffering from #Solastalgia too. In fact, it's been pretty bad this last week. I kept on trying to write something about this but felt too self-indulgent, too Western privileged - others have been going through this for centuries already - so left it.

But the word captures it all, and it's really good to have it here - thank you for bringing it to #ClimateDiary

Solastalgia is a neologism, formed by the combination of the Latin words sōlācium (comfort) and the Greek root -algia (pain, suffering, grief), that describes a form of emotional or existential distress caused by environmental change. It is best described as the lived experience of negatively perceived environmental change.

The word was coined by philosopher Glenn Albrecht in his 2003 book "Solastalgia: a new concept in human health and identity." He describes it as "the homesickness you have when you are still at home" and your home environment is changing in ways you find distressing.
