It’s not just the physical damage—homes burned, crops lost, power grids strained. This crisis is rewriting the mental landscape of a generation. - Parents wrestle with keeping children safe and cool. - Farmers and fishers face uncertain futures and mounting debt. - Therapists report record spikes in anxiety, sleep disorders, and panic attacks tied to “climate dread.”
According to the World Health Organization, the psychological effects of climate disasters are “profound and lasting.” Harvest & Harmony’s Climate Grief Grounding Guide has seen record downloads this month as more people search for grounding, community, and hope.
