It''s Not Just You

English

By (author): Tori Tsui

The world is in desperate need of this book - Greta Thunberg

'It's Not Just You is a galvanising breath of fresh air' - Mikaela Loach

'Tori Tsui is changing the conversation around mental health and the climate crisis' - Vogue

A must-read for anyone who would love to understand the intersections of mental health and the climate crisis - Vanessa Nakate

------------------------

Its not just you.

The climate crisis is making us all unwell. 
But not just you.
The climate crisis is affecting certain communities disproportionately.
And its not just the climate crisis 

The term eco-anxiety has been popularised as a way to talk about the negative impact of the climate emergency on our wellbeing. In Its Not Just You, activist Tori Tsui reframes eco-anxiety as the urgent mental health crisis it clearly is.
 
Drawing on the wisdom of environmental advocates from around the globe, Tori looks to those on the frontlines of eco-activism to demonstrate that the current climate-related mental health struggle goes beyond the climate itself. Instead, it is a struggle that encompasses many injustices and is deeply entrenched in systems such as racism, sexism, ableism and, above all, capitalism.
 
Because of this, climate injustice disproportionately affects most marginalised communities, who are often excluded from narratives on mental health. Tori argues that we can only begin to tackle both the climate and mental health crisis by diversifying our perspectives and prioritising community-led practices. In essence, reminding us that Its Not Just You. 

Tackling this increasingly urgent crisis requires looking both inwards and outwards, embracing individuality over individualism and championing climate justice. Only then can we start to build better futures for both people and the planet.
