Researchers from Sichuan University of Arts and Science in China have conducted a study on the mental health implications of climate change, specifically focusing on ecological emotions such as eco-anxiety, eco-worry, and eco-grief. The study aims to clarify the definition of ecological emotions, identify their causes, and understand their effects on mental health. The researchers argue that the current approach of promoting individual resilience is insufficient and emphasize the need for collective engagement to address the social and environmental factors that trigger these emotions. They suggest drawing insights from indigenous cultures and traditional Chinese philosophy to achieve a sustainable emotional balance in the face of the worsening global ecological crisis.
