Climate grief and ecological mourning

The grief of watching ecosystems collapse, species disappear, and the physical conditions that support life as we have known it destabilize is a real and growing form of sorrow that has no established ritual container. Climate grief is distinct from personal loss in scale and in the strange temporality of a loss still in process. This domain examines what climate grief is, how to mourn it, and how to carry it without being paralyzed by it.
