Beyond environmental and physical impacts, climate change significantly affects mental health, leading to "climate anxiety" characterized by dread, hopelessness, and sleep issues. Psychotherapists like Leslie Davenport note patients' ambient anxiety, likening these feelings to the stages of grief for environmental and lifestyle loss. Acknowledging these emotions is crucial to prevent despair.

Experts like Renee Lertzman emphasize staying present with such feelings. Bryant Welch advocates for open conversations about climate change, highlighting the power of listening to foster connection and hope. Naming anxieties helps tame them, cultivating optimism and improving mental well-being.

National Geographic Explorer Carlton Ward Jr. and a coalition document the critical fight to save the Florida panther and the Everglades from ecological collapse. Their film, "Path of the Panther," is the culmination of over five years of field research and unprecedented footage, capturing wild panthers as never before. This project inspired the Florida Wildlife Corridor Act, a groundbreaking blueprint for global habitat conservation.

"Path of the Panther" premiered in over 40 Florida theaters on February 24, 2023. It will air on National Geographic and stream on Disney+ this spring.

In times of anxiety and global stress, maintaining equilibrium is crucial. Forests, from city parks to wild places, offer profound emotional and physical healing, extending beyond their carbon sequestration power.

Certified Nature therapy guides Sylvie Rokab and Sheila Laffey explain how "forest bathing" boosts immunity. Inhaling tree-emitted phytoncides enhances human natural killer (NK) cell activity, combating disease. Even short walks in nature provide lasting benefits.

Climate scientist Michael Mann and cartoonist Tom Toles offer a satirical perspective, while science journalist Cristine Russell discusses the politicization of science. Psychologist Renee Lertzman explores the psychology of denial, aiming to foster common ground and solutions.

This month's call will explore whether carbon fee and dividend can bridge the Republican-Democrat divide. We'll hear from Dr. Ray Ward, a Republican state representative and family physician from Utah, who champions this policy. Earlier this year, Dr. Ward co-signed a Deseret News op-ed with two dozen other Utah Republicans, endorsing carbon fee and dividend as a viable climate solution.

Feeling anxious about climate change can lead to overwhelm and shutdown, a concept environmental psychologist Dr. Renee Lertzman calls our "window of tolerance." Exceeding this threshold can immobilize us, preventing effective engagement.

Dr. Lertzman's unique approach integrates behavioral, social, and design sciences. She offers psychological tools to acknowledge these anxieties, creating conditions that empower individuals to move past immobilization and contribute their brilliant selves to social change.
