The persistence of the COVID-19 pandemic and the significant changes in climate leading to an increase of disasters have been a cause of concern. The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report warned that society has a narrow window of time left to prevent climate change from spinning out of control. This report has reignited urgent calls for action (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 2021; Arias et al., 2021), but there is a less recognized dimension of climate change that could make these calls for action more effective, which is the connection between climate change and mental health. The COVID-19 pandemic has already resulted in several mental health disparities (Ferreira, 2021) and has shown the inequitable mental health crisis that can result when people are forced to alter the behaviors and lifestyles they are accustomed to (Ferreira et al., 2020). Climate change already poses a significant threat due to the prolonged exposure and intensified associate disasters. Given the current crises and associated impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, the impacts of climate change would be pale in comparison to the mental health crisis that would result from ongoing, worsening climate change over the long term.
