About this listen

In this episode of Three Degrees Apart, I speak with Dr. Lise Van Susteren, a psychiatrist, climate activist, and expert on the mental health impacts of climate change, about the psychological toll of living in a rapidly warming world—and how we can respond with resilience and purpose. We explore the rise of climate anxiety, especially among young people, the emotional dimensions of denial and inaction, and why mental health literacy is essential in climate conversations. Drawing from her clinical background and advocacy work, Dr. Van Susteren reflects on turning fear into action, supporting vulnerable communities, and balancing urgency with grounded hope in the face of the climate crisis.
