How can I talk to my kids about climate anxiety?

It's important to approach the topic gently. Start by asking them what they know about climate change.

What if they seem really scared or upset?

Acknowledge their feelings. Let them know it's okay to feel anxious and that many people share these concerns.

Should I provide them with solutions or just listen?

Listening is key, but you can also discuss positive actions they can take, like recycling or planting trees.

How can I help them feel empowered instead of helpless?

Encourage them to participate in community activities or projects that focus on environmental protection.
