How should we think about aging when the impacts of climate change
can make the future feel so uncertain? That’s a question Sarah Ray,
professor and chair of environmental studies at Cal Poly Humboldt,
has been helping her students consider. Though climate anxiety can
cause some to feel overwhelmed, Ray has tips for how to minimize
doom loops and inaction. How to Age Up co-hosts Yasmin Tayag and
Natalie Brennan talk about how current climate concerns compare to
the existential crises of previous generations, and how to practice
hope during uncertain times. Here is a link to the full poem “The
Low Road” by Marge Piercy. A passage is referenced in this
episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
