Great to see the PTM Framework being used to address the issues of depoliticisation etc around 'climate anxiety'. I've been using it in my professional work with children with developmental trauma since it was released. Further looking at Indigenous understandings and framings of climate anxiety - with long roots in colonial exploitation - will help inform it better I think.
Thanks for sharing your insight on this, Britt! It brings a lot to the table and sheds a lot of light on how absurd it is that we reduce this existential feeling of dread down to "anxiety". This post inspired me to start up a local community space (well, virtual right now) to meet up with other young people to talk about the intersection of climate change and social justice. Keep up the great writing!
The changes to the climate are more to do with the magnetic excretion (weakening magnetosphere) and space weather,than humans. Yes we pollute, deforest the Amazon (lungs if the world) etc. That is only a small part of the equation. Our planet,sun and solar system all have cycles. We are in the 12,000 year cycle now. Please look at the whole picture, not just what those who push it for profit tell you.
