Our research paper reviews existing literature on climate anxiety, with a particular focus on what’s its status in Pakistan. Climate anxiety, which involves fear and distress related to climate change, is becoming an increasing concern worldwide. It examines the extent of climate anxiety in Pakistan and explores how exposure to media coverage of climate-related events may influence it. This review looks at current research trends on climate anxiety, including its definition, effects on mental health, and the role of media in shaping public views. The findings of our study reveal significant differences in how climate anxiety is defined and measured across various studies. We also observed that climate anxiety literature lacks a qualitative perspective. We emphasize the importance of developing a clearer and more uniform understanding of climate anxiety to improve research on the topic. It also highlighted the role of media in influencing anxiety levels, particularly in countries like Pakistan where climate-related disasters are common. The paper concludes by encouraging more research on climate anxiety in Pakistan, especially qualitative studies.
