In case you missed it, with the news of polar ice caps melting and bushfires spreading, the world is in a climate crisis in the past several years. With this growing unrest, people are of course naturally concerned: especially environmental activists and scientists. From Greta Thunberg’s campaigns to scientists protesting on the streets, global warming has sparked a mass movement. Protesters even staged public stunts like throwing soup on a Van Gogh painting or wiping their cake on the famous Mona Lisa (some also covered a living royal’s wax figure in pie!) to deliver a message: “Think of the planet.” 

But what kind of behavioral effect will the crisis have (or what effect did it already have) on us who live on the same planet, that, according to professionals, is in danger? 

For our fifth episode of Season Five - #TheChanges: Climate Change and Its Influence on Human Behavior - Dr. Criselle Angeline Peñamante answers our questions and concerns in climate anxiety, emotional distress and many more topics. 

Some #Changes will be inevitable, but our routine is not one of them. So, like always, grab your coffee, sit back and relax!
