"Researchers have conducted extensive studies into increased “climate
anxiety” levels and hyper-vigilance in communities formerly stricken by
droughts and floods and bushfires. (One professor coined the term
“solastalgia” to describe the “existential distress” felt by residents
after a negative environmental change in the place they call home.)"
On the importance of hope:
"You lose hope, and when you get your hope back, it keeps you functioning"
