Climate change linked to growing loneliness
Original: As the climate changes, loneliness grows
Researchers and commentators are drawing attention to a less obvious cost of a warming world: loneliness. As extreme heat, floods and other climate disruptions push people indoors, damage communities and displace residents, everyday social contact weakens. The argument is that climate change is not only an environmental and economic crisis but a social one, eroding the relationships that keep people connected.
Why now: Rising coverage of climate impacts now extends to their mental health and social consequences, prompting fresh discussion.
