How to Stay Hopeful When the Climate News Feels Overwhelming

It’s hard to stay optimistic when every scroll or headline tells a grim story. But hope is not the absence of struggle—it’s the determination to create a better future in the face of it.

My Hope Practices

• Limit doomscrolling: Set boundaries around news consumption.
• Celebrate small wins: Every tree planted, every youth empowered, every behavior changed counts.
• Practice gratitude: Keep a journal. Reflect daily.
• Talk about it: Don’t carry the burden alone. Join circles and support spaces.

Why Hope is a Discipline We don’t have to ignore the bad to believe in the good. Hope is a discipline that can be strengthened. We owe it to ourselves and each other to keep the light on.
