Climate grief

Climate grief is the sorrow, fear, and sometimes rage that emerges from recognizing ecological loss and the uncertain future it portends—a response that is psychologically sound rather than pathological, though it can feel isolating when those around you haven't reckoned with the same reality. Learning to hold this grief without being consumed by it, and to act within it, requires acknowledging both the genuineness of the threat and the limits of individual despair.
