I ended up spending Sunday afternoon speaking with about twenty 9-16yr olds about how they feel about climate change. Here’s what I learned... #talkingclimate
1)A fair few said they didn’t really know how they felt. This was maybe partly from not really personally engaging with the issue (lecturing them can also distance them from it) but also because there was quite a mix of emotions.
2) They felt lectured at by adults about it. This made them feel a range of other emotions – angry, frustrated, defiant. Angry @ hypocrisy & burden placing; Frustrated @ the mismatch between the scale of the problem & solutions they were presented; Defiant - prove adults wrong.
