6. Solastalgia - Glenn Albrecht

In this episode, Dr. Aruni speaks with Professor Glenn Albrecht about solastalgia and how it is affecting people today worldwide. Solastalgia is a new concept developed to give greater meaning and clarity to environmentally induced distress. As opposed to nostalgia--the melancholia or homesickness experienced by individuals when separated from a loved home--solastalgia is the distress that is produced by environmental change impacting on people while they are directly connected to their home environment.
