Session Description: The term eco-anxiety has spiked in popularity in recent years, with 75% of young people saying that "the future is frightening". While the impacts of the climate crisis are predominantly being faced by Black, Indigenous, and people of color, as well as other historically underinvested communities, the narrative around eco-anxiety has not been inclusive of these voices. This workshop explores the intersection of Environmental Justice and Eco-anxiety, providing community resilience tools that center the experience of young people of color + other intersectional identities.
This workshop is sponsored by an Eco-Social Justice Grant!
