Young Australians have reported that climate distress has impacted their functioning, their hope for the future and their mental health. 

Orygen commissioned a YouGov survey of young Australians (16–25 years old) to understand how climate distress is impacting the mental health and wellbeing of young people. This report examines the results, identifying the issues and potential solutions.
