Feeling the Heat: Climate Change's Hidden Health Crisis with Dr. Sean Kidd

This episode is hosted by **Dr. Anna Gunz**, with guest **Dr. Sean Kidd**, a clinical psychologist at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) and professor at the University of Toronto.  In this episode, we dig into how climate change amplifies mental health risks through poverty, housing insecurity, and unequal exposure to heat and environmental harms. We also explore what the research says about the effects of heat waves on youth's mental health and brain development. The conversation moves into adaption, eco-distress, and building community in healthcare. **Recording Date:** 2024-03-04 **Episode Production & Management Team:** Jakob Wilk, Emma Cornell, Abby Walker, Olivia D'Andrea Brooks, Emily Douglas, Danielle Pineda, Amaan Thawer, and Abby Peters **Show Artwork:** Laney Beaulieu
