Check out the upcoming webinar: “Climate Change and our Mental Health”

March 27, 2023 - Defence Stories

Climate change and its impact on the world around us – such as extreme weather patterns, worsening air quality, and resource scarcity – has the potential to cause a heightened level of anxiety and effect our mental health.

In this webinar we will discuss:

• The links between climate change and our health (psychological, physiological, community and environmental health);
• Eco-anxiety and the impacts it may have (negative or positive);
• Ways to navigate diverse and potential difficult emotions due to climate change; and
• How to build coping skills and strategies for resilience.
