I've written an article for @ExtinctionR that attempts to make sense of the struggles I experience when I try to talk to friends/family about the #climatecrisis. I hope it'll help others so I'm going to summarise it a bit here #mentalhealth rebellion.global/blog/2022/06/0… Some responses I've had when I talk honestly about climate change. Any of these familiar?!

💩 U need to calm down
💩 You’re catastrophising
💩 Have u considered talking to a therapist about this?
💩 Scientists are human; they don’t know everything

I do not wish to calm down.
