Eco-anxiety: when the planet stresses you, you're not alone
Worrying about the environment is normal; talking and acting at your level truly helps.
Feeling anxious about climate news happens to a lot of young people. That feeling is valid and not overblown; acknowledging it is already a first step.
Turning worry into small actions
Acting at your level, even modestly, restores a sense of control. Joining a group or a local project helps too, because you realise you're not alone in caring.
If the anxiety gets too heavy and weighs on your daily life, talk to a trusted adult or a health professional. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
