          Studies have shown that climate change can affect individuals' mental health in several ways. For example, sudden increases in temperature can lead to higher rates of depression and anxiety. Natural disasters associated with climate change, such as floods, droughts, and hurricanes, can also lead to higher rates of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and psychological distress. Solutions to address these issues include promoting psychological, social, and economic adaptation among affected individuals and communities, as well as improving healthcare and mental health support for those with mental illnesses. Additionally, measures can be taken to mitigate climate change, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions, investing in renewable energy, improving water resource management, and forecasting and planning for natural disasters. It is also important to raise awareness among the public about the relationship between climate change and mental health, and to encourage action to mitigate climate change and improve mental health. This can be achieved through educational campaigns, public outreach, and providing accurate and reliable information about the psychological impacts of climate change. Furthermore, promoting research and scientific studies on this topic can help to better understand the psychological effects of climate change and develop effective solutions to address them.

                Mental illness costs the UK £100 billion a year, enough to fund any zero carbon plan. The Kadir-Buxton Method cures mental illness in thirty seconds and can be done by practice nurses and first aiders. We can end the scourge of mental illness now.
