Impact of Climate Change on Social and Mental Well-Being 1st Edition

Impact of Climate Change on Social and Mental Well-Being (1st Edition) by Muskan Garg, Deepak Kumar, Debabrata Samanta, and Anuradha Sathiyaseelan offers a timely, evidence-driven exploration of how environmental shifts reshape minds, communities, and policy landscapes. Written for practitioners, researchers, students, and decision-makers, this authoritative volume connects climate science with public health, sociology, and community resilience.

Begin with a compelling synthesis of global and regional data—highlighting effects across South Asia and urban and rural India—then move into clear case studies that reveal the human face of rising temperatures, extreme weather, displacement, and resource stress. The authors blend epidemiological insight with qualitative narratives to show how anxiety, depression, trauma, and social fragmentation emerge from environmental change, while also documenting adaptive social networks, local coping strategies, and successful intervention models.

Readable yet rigorous, the book equips readers with practical frameworks for mental-health practitioners, policymakers, NGOs, and educators: screening approaches, community-based resilience programs, and policy recommendations grounded in interdisciplinary research. Each chapter bridges science and action, making complex findings accessible and applicable.

If you work in public health, social policy, environmental planning, or mental-health services—or if you seek a comprehensive, regionally informed understanding of climate-driven social impacts—this 1st Edition is an essential guide. Thought-provoking and solution-oriented, it empowers stakeholders to recognize risks, design interventions, and foster resilient communities in an era of rapid climate change.
