If you’re overwhelmed by an impending sense of doom after you read some of the “danger zones” in Enterprise Climate, pick up a copy of Generation Dread. Eco-anxiety, which The American Psychology Association (APA) describes as “a chronic fear of environmental doom” can be debilitating. Much like other kinds of stress, it can cause burnout and hinder people’s ability to go about their days. Britt Way demonstrates that these emotions are a healthy response to the word’s unsettling situation by combining scientific and emotional insights. She ties in input from climate-conscious psychologists, viewpoints on privilege and race in the climate crisis and new ways we can cope with the changing planet.
