Summary
From wildfires and floods to melting ice caps, today’s kids are exposed to the realities of climate change earlier than ever. Host Elise Hu is joined by author, marine biologist, and cofounder of the Urban Ocean Lab, Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, to discuss how climate anxiety shows up in kids, and how parents can help share the truth without overwhelming kids about reality. Drawing from her New York Times bestselling book, What If We Get It Right?, Dr. Johnson shares how families can start conversations about conservation and activism centered in intergenerational collaboration and responsibility, and practical tips for channeling concerns into action.
