[Eco-emotions: The Psychological Consequences of the Climate Crisis].

Global climate crisis is a phenomenon that not only affects the environment but also has an impact on every person on Earth, including their physical and mental well-being. This paper aims to provide an overview of the indirect mental impacts of the climate crisis by presenting the most discussed eco-emotions. Eco-emotions are affective phenomena related to global climate crisis, such as eco-anxiety, eco-grief, and eco-guilt. The study also summarizes the social groups that are most vulnerable to experiencing the negative mental effects of climate change. Additionally, the paper gives a brief summary of adaptive and maladaptive coping mechanisms for dealing with eco-emotions, as well as therapeutic considerations that experts should take into account when working with affected individuals.
