A recent survey found that 85% of young people are moderately to extremely worried about climate change, showcasing the widespread impact on their mental health and daily life.
Despite political affiliations, youth climate anxiety is a cross-partisan issue, indicating an urgent need for inclusive strategies to support all young people amidst the climate crisis.
