Mental Health Impacts of our Changing Climate
January 20, 2022, 7:00 pm
Zoom meeting<\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Climate change is impacting mental and emotional well-being through the trauma of extreme events (e.g., super-storms, floods, wildfires) as well as the anxiety and depression rough by chronic changes (melting sea ice, increased temperatures, drought). Around the world, young people, in particular, are reporting growing levels of anxiety, grief and anger about the diminished prospects for their future due to inadequate societal and governmental response to climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Christie Manning, Director of Sustainability at Macalester College and faculty member in the department of Environmental Studies, will share a summary of the findings of a 2021 research review of mental health and climate change published by the American Psychological Association. She will also share her own experiences and observations of how young people are coping with the stress of climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

About the Good Neighbor Meal (GNM)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever wondered about the \u201ccan trailer\u201d in the Peace parking lot? The funds from recycling these cans, donated by you and many others in the Shoreview area, is used to directly support expenses of the Good Neighbor Meal. In 2021, just over $2500 was received from the cans and used to support meals offered twice-monthly to food-insecure individuals and families near the Capitol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Good Neighbor Meal began over 20 years ago as a collaboration between Peace, Wheelock Parkway and Central Park UMCs, and it was known at the time as the Corridor Meal. Central Park was the original host site, but when they sold their building, the meal moved to its current site, the Good Neighbor Center<\/a> at 441 Rice Street, and became known as the Good Neighbor Meal. Wheelock Church disbanded; Central Park became the Recovery Church and continues to host six meals each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meals are served on the second and last Saturday of each month. They are staffed entirely by volunteers. Panera Bread donates day-old leftover bread and pastries, which are picked up by a volunteer the evening before the meal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The program is unique in that host groups fund, prepare, serve, and clean up to make the meal a success. It is one of the few that identify the people who come for dinner as \u201cour guests,\u201d and seconds are usually available. During COVID, indoor dining has been suspended, so instead we pass out bag lunches at the door from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During COVID, indoor dining has been suspended, so instead we pass out bag lunches at the door from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm.  We\u2019re grateful for all the support we\u2019ve received from you over the years. Anyone can help by donating cans,\u00a0volunteering on Saturdays, or donating to Peace Church with a\u00a0memo\/note that it is for the GNM.
