How to cope with the stress/helpless feeling of the world being in environmental distress.

My partner and I try to be conscious about the impact we have on the world, like the products we buy, the energy and water we use, and any other way we can help out. It seems like such a hopeless battle when all we see is "by 2030 or 20xx the damage will be irreversible" or " unpredictable and extreme weather by 2050". We will still be considerably young and have nieces and nephews we are concerned about, we don't want to see that happen or live in a toxic world but nobody seems to be trying to make a difference at least in the US (ie. Big corporations).

How do you deal with this?

post-graduation stress, trying to find my way to an environmental career

Hello, I just graduated with a BA in environmental science and policy with a minor in geography. While in school I did an internship doing wetlands restoration, it was entirely fieldwork with no data entry or office work or anything like that. I’m now looking for a job or internship and it seems like everything I find either wants me to still be a student or have 3-5 years of experience with environmental compliance stuff. I’ve taken multiple classes on this topic obviously because of my major but I haven’t been able to find any way to get any real experience applying this knowledge. The only opportunities I seem qualified for is outdoor monitoring and fieldwork. I enjoy doing this but I’m scared it won’t lead to a real career. Any tips on finding ACTUAL entry-level work? Or careers that can come out of fieldwork experience if I continue working on that? (I’m in SoCal if that makes a difference) Thanks!

Question: Just got this Sinningia Leucotricha about a week or so ago and one of the stems has all of a sudden gone limp (other two are fine.) Do you think it’s from shipping stress/environmental change or something I might be doing wrong?

Reducing Chronic Environmental Stress in Student Housing

Greetings! I am an undergraduate, currently taking my thesis. Please help me reach as much respondents as I can. Kindly answer this survey if you have an experience staying in a student housing (dormitory, boarding house, apartment, student condominium). This study is conducted in order to improve the living conditions of the next generation college students living in student accommodations. Feel free to spread the link to the people you know who are currently staying or has an experience living in a student housing as well. It would mean a lot to me. Thank you very much for your time!

You know you're a Millenial when you want to buy a gun for a shot at survival in case of the impending environmental and/or economic apocalypse but refrain because owning an instant-death tool in such an age of stress and anxiety is a recipe for contemplating an easy yet permanent escape.

Does anyone notice with their AA itchiness on the scalp or eyebrows where they tend to have the hair loss? I’ve noticed this with myself over the years which makes me think it’s not caused by stress. I also have severe environmental allergies.
