Photo by paulnicklen | I often receive DMs from people suffering climate-related anxiety. Perhaps you are even feeling it now as you read this—a sense of helplessness in the face of a global crisis. If so, please know that you are not alone. The one thing I have learned from all my years in conservation is that taking action curbs that anxiety. Signing a petition, making a donation, joining a group, talking to a friend, calling a representative, even making a point to pick up litter during a visit to a local park or beach—each of these small actions has helped improve my outlook at one point or another. The only emotion greater than fear is hope, and we can find it in one another by building a community of activity and action. Follow me PaulNicklen to see the positive impacts SeaLegacy and OnlyOne have had on climate change and other issues affecting our natural world.
