Ms.
Maria Nieves is a practicing clinical psychologist in Brazil. She is a master’s
student at the Catholic University of Pelotas in southern Brazil, where her
degree will be in Behavior and Health. Her presentation topic is fear related
to climate change.
Her session May 15th at 9:30 a.m. SLT is titled “Worry Related to Climate Change among Brazilian Adults.” She reminds us that it’s ok to worry about the world ending due to the climate crisis.
There is scientific consensus that global warming is happening, and anyone with access to information about climate change is potentially susceptible to experiencing an anxiety response. She explores whether those responses are pathological or just logical in the face of what's been going on.
