The Impact Lounge Presents: Creators on Climate and Mental Health
At the start of Climate Week NYC, the Impact Lounge will spotlight the nexus between climate and mental health through the lens of storytellers, creators, and advocates. It will explore how nature is essential to mental health and why creators need to take care of themselves to tell the stories that truly matter. Actors, creators and changemakers explore climate as the ultimate public health issue, addressing air quality, stress, resilience, and community support for everyone navigating this global issue. We’ll showcase films and organizations making a difference, have candid conversations and close with a cocktail reception.
