Climate Change, COVID, and the Anxiety of Global Problems for Individuals
The COVID 19 pandemic is a global problem. Climate change is an even bigger one. But people are individuals, and can rarely make meaningful interventions on such scales. This has many implications for our wellbeing and mental health. To mark the launch of her new book 'Everyday Activism - How to Change the World in Five Minutes, One Hour or a Day', Rachel leads the discussion for a change, as she and Dean explore exactly how much influence a single person can have, and how they can maybe change feelings of helplessness against seemingly insurmountable problems.
