Would anyone be interested in a blog about overcoming climate despair?
Hey all.
In the past year I’ve seen a lot of posts/asks from people (young people in particular) who are overwhelmed with despair over the state of our planet. Just recently I replied to an ask of this nature with a quick list of good environmental news from the past year and have been overwhelmed with the positive response.
People have been commenting that the post made them cry with happiness, or inspired them to actually try to help instead of just feeling hopeless.
And it struck me that maybe this is something a lot of us REALLY need right now. Not only to find something hopeful to fight for, but also to know that we are not alone in feeling this way.
So I’m planning to start a blog focused on good environmental news, spotlighting people who are making a difference, examples of ways to help, and generally cultivating an attitude of defiance and hopefulness.
Even if no one else gets anything out of it, I think it would at least help me. This is something I also struggle with a lot.
But I would also like to hear if anyone else would be interested/benefit from this kind of thing?
