Come Along for the Ride:
A Journey through Climate Grief

Come Along for the Ride: A Journey Through Climate Grief follows two women navigating life with climate anxiety. One character, Sophie, is a millennial woman living her best life in New York City while also dealing with the challenges of modern dating and climbing the corporate ladder. The other character, Mari, about to have a child, is an immigrant that traces her migration story to climate change and is terrified of the world she is about to bring her child into.
