An urgent and useful guide for parents navigating the uncertainty of the climate crisis (their kids' and their own) that offers doable advice on how to turn the worry and fear into hope and action.
Camp canceled because of wildfire smoke. Favorite beaches closed due to erosion. Recess held indoors due to extreme heat. Kids today are experiencing the climate crisis firsthand. So how do parents help it all make sense for them? And how can we keep our kids (and ourselves) from despair? Environmental journalist and parent Bridget Shirvell has created a handbook for parents to help them navigate these questions and more, weaving together expert advice from climate scientists, environmental activists, child psychologists, and parents across the country. She helps parents answer tough questions (how did we get here?) and raise kids who feel connected to and responsible for the natural world (it starts with nature walks and a family dog), feel motivated to make ecologically sound choices, and feel empowered to meet the challenges of the climate crisis (it starts with building resilience and problem-solving skills), and to ultimately fight for change.
