The nature of academia means climate emotions overlap with “Intersectionality” to worsen their experience.

Our findings support the value of group therapy as a cathartic outlet for climate emotions among environmental scientists.

As a result, climate anxiety is likely to become more prolific, perhaps most so in climate scientists.
