Climate change is a major public health concern. Mental health is an area significantly affected by climate change through direct and existential impacts. Youth represent a particularly vulnerable population due to longer exposure to impacts over a greater proportion of their development. In recognition of Earth Day, this presentation will review the impacts of climate change on youth mental health and discuss strategies for supporting wellness and resilience.
