Climate Anxiety High Among Rural Turkish Teens, Study Suggests
Original: Climate Worry Runs High Among Rural Turkish Teens, Linked to Anxiety and Social Media Use
A study finds that climate change worry is running high among teenagers in rural Turkey, with researchers linking the concern to anxiety symptoms and heavy social media use. The findings suggest young people in less urban areas are not insulated from climate distress, and that constant online exposure to climate news may be amplifying feelings of fear and helplessness among adolescents.
Why now: New research highlighting climate-related anxiety among rural Turkish youth is drawing attention to mental health impacts of climate change.
