We are all distressed by climate change. Mental health, especially that of young people, is severely affected by these anomalous heat waves. Let’s deepen.
We know that the climate crisis associated with the soaring temperatures, melting glaciers and other worrying natural manifestations, all this creates serious problems for our planet but also for mental health.
Suicides, anxieties, and much more concern many people who face the worrying climatic situation we are experiencing in this way.
What is climate anxiety and its effects
It seems that according to research conducted, yesit is above all young people who are most concerned by the climatic situation which continues to worsen. The question has been raised to 10,000 girls and boys aged between 16 and 25 of different nationalities
Especially these excessive and anomalous heatwaves worry young people a lot even bringing them to suicides. The research that has been conducted has established that the very young population that suffers from the high temperatures where they live is prone to suicide
In short, a clear relationship between the hot weather and suicides. A dizzying and worrying increase in these extreme reactions that derive from a very difficult life in countries where the temperature is rising more and more.
They were also analyzed the various posts written on social media by these young people who were really depressed and who stressed that the only solution was to take their own life, not to endure this torment and because they are aware that their future is very compromised.
Surely this situation of rising temperatures makes our Planet increasingly warm and unlivable and everything is absolutely not healthy, even for animal breeds, some in fact are dying out precisely because the high temperatures do not allow them to survive, just think of the polar bears, where glaciers melt their life is compromised.
But in addition to these animal categories there are men, who, due to the increase in temperatures, have an impairment of the physical and mental system. Despite the efforts, nothing has changed, indeed it gets worse every day. Unfortunately, if we do not act concretely and drastically, perhaps it is by now too late, it will truly be a planetary tragedy.
