Teens can't wait 'til grownups get it
from What On Earth
Their eco-anxiety is real, and they're helping each other with it even as adults play it down. We hear from two high schoolers in New Brunswick who are finding ways to cope — and even educating the willing grownups in their lives. And our mental health columnist Abhay Singh Sachal is worried about gaps he sees in modern psychology education. If tomorrow's therapists aren't climate aware, they risk "dismissing or downplaying" a key concern for their youngest clients. Plus, listeners weigh in on ways to reuse old clothes and linens — from creating a Dolly Parton-style bedsheet to Schitt's Creek dolls.
