I find myself questioning whether I could ever justify bringing my own children into this world. I agonize over the amount of plastic we can't avoid using and mourn the monarch butterflies that have vanished.
When I first heard the term 'climate anxiety,' I was perplexed. Anger, frustration, helplessness, exhaustion - these are the emotions I come across more often when getting to know the communities bracing for devastation.
Climate anxiety seems rooted in a fear that we'll never go back to normal, that the future we were once promised is now gone.
Each year, as I reflect on my own reporting on the floods that keep getting worse and the toxic pollution building up in all forms of life, I find my heart breaking.
