With our recent record breaking bushfires and floods, feeling anxious about the ecological crises we face is entirely understandable, given the enormity of the threats. Eco-anxiety is sometimes described as a mental health problem. It’s not. Eco-anxiety is a rational psychological and emotional response to the overlapping ecological crises we now face. If you feel this way, you are not alone. We have found eco-anxiety is remarkably common. Almost two-thirds of Australian report feeling eco-anxiety at least “some of the time”. The response can be triggered by media stories on environmental and climate crises as well as human efforts to combat them. This includes the barrage of media from the United Nations climate conference, or COP26, or our recent floods. But luckily there are groups dedicated to saving our natural environment and this Tuesday, we invite you to meet with Conservation Volunteers Australia (CVA) and learn more about how they help, and how you can help. About about CVA: CVA are working towards a world in which people and nature flourish together. CVA exists to strengthen the health of communities and ecosystems for mutual benefit, across Australia. Through their work, they're building a more harmonious and helpful relationship between people and nature. People tell us that they want to play their part to re-balance nature, but they don’t know where to start. So, for almost 40 years we’ve been working to give people that opportunity through hands on volunteering. Now, they’re growing their work to empower anyone across Australia to take action for nature.
