[BERG] BERG Seminar - Maria Ojala (Climate Change Worry)

[Sharon Kessler]

Dear Bergers,

I'm delighted to announce that this week, our BERG seminar will be given by Maria Ojala from Örebro University, Sweden, at 4pm online. The title is, "Climate Change Worry Among Young People: Associations with Mental Wellbeing, Climate Change Engagement, and the Role of Coping." Below is the abstract of the talk, the link, and the schedule of upcoming talks.

Abstract
Many young people worry about climate change. Is this worry related to hopelessness and low wellbeing, or is it rather related to climate engagement? Research shows that young people are not victims of whatever climate change related emotions that are aroused in them but actively cope in different ways. The focus in this presentation is on research with young people in the ages from late childhood, through adolescence, up to young adulthood about their worry and how they cope and how these coping strategies and worry relate to engagement and subjective wellbeing. The importance of meaning-focused coping and constructive hope will be emphasized.
