Symptoms [of eco-anxiety] are triggered whenever the person confronts eco-related information in the press, social networks, or others who do not acknowledge their footprint or take steps to prevent damage. To avoid the latter, eco-anxious people often isolate themselves and avoid any interaction with those who can exacerbate their distress.

CONT

La littérature scientifique et les écoanxieux s'accordent : le meilleur moyen de tenir à distance ses inquiétudes face au futur de la planète, c'est de se mettre en action. S'impliquer collectivement donne l'impression de contrôle et diminue le sentiment de peur et de découragement.
