In this interactive short lecture, we will talk about the feelings children and young people have in connection with climate change and how these feelings can be dealt with well.

Most people have long been aware of climate change. The younger generation in particular is very aware of the threat it poses. This can lead to very different feelings: Fear, anger, hopelessness and sadness are just some of the most common feelings, which are also called climate feelings.

But what to do with all these feelings? Is commitment to more climate protection the solution? Or would it be better to distract ourselves and not think about it so much? The lecture will describe various ways of dealing with climate feelings and explain their respective effects.
In addition to the short lecture, the event will also include interactive elements so that participants have the opportunity to contribute their own experiences.
The target group is primarily young people (children, teenagers and young adults), but all interested parties are welcome!
