“During the heatwave, I’ve got a high level of anxiety all the time and I’m pretty much useless,” she told the BBC. “I’ve had to leave bedtime when my husband reads [my kids] stories to have a little cry and to calm down, because it’s just too hot in their room and I’m afraid for them.”
Tavia has “Climate anxiety”… A 2022 study from the University of Bath estimates that about 4.6% of people in the UK have climate anxiety, which is recognised as a form of mental distress by professional bodies and the NHS. Young people and women are among the groups most at risk, according to a study published in 2025.
Tavia goes on,and on,to say”you can try to do something. I sign petitions during a heatwave; I organise climate community events; I run a free children’s clothes swap shop. During the last heatwave, I finally became vegetarian, because then I can tell my kids at least I tried.”
A Triumph of common sense indeed.

I posit the best cure for this ladies complex would be the immediate settlement of 2000 rubber boatists half mile from her residence. after two weeks the last thing on her mind will be the inability to read bedtime stories as her anxiety re tsunamis and hurricanes will be seen as the equivalent of two weeks free in a major Paris hotel with unlimited spending dosh.
I hope this helps.
