According to Dodds, people who experience eco-anxiety run from two extremes. On one hand, they may be more proactive than most in taking measures to protect resources, like using reusable water bottles and food storage containers, and reducing single-use plastic consumption. Or, on the other hand, “they may feel so powerless to stop the degradation of the environment that they can’t handle thinking about it at all,” she says.
“When I first conducted research on environmental grief in 2001, I was told I was the only person researching it,” she tells SheKnows. “In 2006, I presented my research at two conferences at Oxford University. Some participants said that I put a name to a feeling they had but didn’t know what that feeling was.
. “When it comes to both environmental grief and eco-anxiety, I encourage people to sit for a moment and just in that one moment find something to be grateful for,” says Kevorkian. “If you’re able to see the beauty of Nature for one moment and appreciate her then do it! If not, then think about all those people who are working to save Nature.”
