Tori Tsui on Eco-Anxiety & Why It's Not Just You

Cocktails & Capitalism

“For me, dismantling the fossil fuel industry is a form of mental healthcare” – Tori Tsui This week on Cocktails & Capitalism, I speak with the UK-based climate justice activist, researcher, speaker, and writer Tori Tsui. We discuss the relationship between mental health and the climate crisis, breaking down some of the core concepts that are illuminated in Tori's recent book, It's Not Just You: How to Navigate Eco-Anxiety and the Climate Crisis.
The episode explores common misperceptions about eco-anxiety, the Eurocentric nature of the concept, and why it’s so problematic to call eco-anxiety a mental illness.
