Climate change not only has effects on people's mental health and emotions, but emotions and associated behavioral patterns may also affect the further course of climate change. Most importantly, climate change distress may serve as a motivating force for pro-environmental behavior. This study examined the effect of climate change distress on pro-environmental behavior and investigated the association between age and gender with climate change distress and climate change impairment.
