全球青少年正面临气候变化、疫情和冲突等多重危机造成的严重心理健康问题。2021年针对10个国家10000名儿童青少年的研究表明,约60%的受访者对气候变化表示非常或极度担忧,超过45%表示生态焦虑影响了其日常功能1。同年的另一项研究发现,56%的年轻受访者同意"人类注定灭亡"的悲观看法1。2025年波兰的最新研究进一步证实了这一趋势,超过60%的青少年报告存在情绪调节困难、抑郁症状和身心健康水平下降1。
为应对这一危机,多个支持组织已相继建立针对性的干预项目。由Clover Hogan于2019年创立的Force of Nature组织,其口号是"我们不需要100个完美的行动者,但需要数百万个不完美的行动者"1,去年约有900名参与者参加其Becoming a Force of Nature项目,其在线社区汇聚来自50多个国家的2000名学生1。Good Grief Network的10步项目已运行超过85次,约2500名成人参与者参与其中1。这些组织通过小组会议、情感表达和行动规划等方式来缓解青少年的心理困扰。
然而,这些干预措施的有效性仍有待科学证实。2021年生态焦虑项目的范围审查发现,34个现有项目中仅有2个进行了正式评估1,表明亟需对这些支持网络进行更深入的研究和科学评估。
Young people worldwide are experiencing heightened levels of anxiety and depression stemming from climate change, pandemics, conflicts, and other interconnected crises. A 2021 study across ten countries involving ten thousand adolescents found that approximately 60% reported extreme worry about climate change, while more than 45% said eco-anxiety interfered with their daily functioning.1 That same research revealed that 56% of young respondents agreed with the statement that "humanity is doomed to extinction."1 More recently, a 2025 Polish study documented that over 60% of adolescents reported difficulty regulating emotions, depressive symptoms, and declining physical and mental well-being.1
In response to this mental health crisis, organizations have launched targeted support initiatives. Force of Nature, founded by Clover Hogan in 2019, operated its "Becoming a Force of Nature" program with approximately 900 participants last year and maintains an online community of roughly 2,000 students from more than 50 countries.1 The organization's guiding principle is "We don't need 100 perfect activists but millions of imperfect ones."1 Similarly, Good Grief Network has conducted its ten-step program more than 85 times, engaging approximately 2,500 adult participants.1 These support networks employ group meetings, emotional expression, and action planning to help young people process their distress and build resilience.
However, the effectiveness of these intervention programs remains largely unexamined. A 2021 scoping review of eco-anxiety initiatives found that among 34 existing projects, only 2 had undergone formal evaluation.1 This gap underscores the urgent need for rigorous scientific assessment of these support mechanisms as they continue to expand globally.
