Thanks for saying this. I'm still settling into a relatively new job at a Big Green, and I know I can't be the only person who deals with climate anxiety and grief. But we don't talk about it! And then, when we're polled about how well we feel we can separate from work, many people say "I cannot" - hmm I wonder why... What if we made space for processing these complex feelings on the clock, which affect the decisions we make on the clock, so that we can both do our jobs better and function more effectively when not working?

I’m always working on this! Looking at including something about wellbeing for sustainability people in our next team away day. In my own little part of the team we make space for anger and frustration too, because it is important to do that!

I’ve kind of *made us* talk about climate anxiety and grief because I know it’s important.
