气候变化带给人看不见的伤痕
We often talk about how climate change will influence our future and the world around us, but researchers are now discovering that it also has an influence on our mental health.
One way climate change affects mental health is through natural disasters. Events like floods and wildfires can destroy homes and communities, leaving people feeling scared and helpless. After such disasters, many people experience long-term mental health problems like anxiety and stress.
Another way climate change influences mental health is through “eco-anxiety”. This is a feeling of worry or fear about the future of the planet. Many young people, especially, feel this way because they are worried about what the Earth will be like when they grow up. They worry about whether there will be enough clean water, food, or safe places to live.
Although the climate change may be detrimental to our mental health, we can do something to reduce the harm. Keep in touch with nature and spend more time in green space. Social connections are a really good way as well.
Climate change is not just an environmental problem. It also influences how people feel and think. By understanding this, we can take better care of our planet and ourselves.
