The devastation also can take a huge toll on mental health. According to a recent study that surveyed 10 countries, about \u003ca href=\"https://deliverypdf.ssrn.com/delivery.php?ID=596097013121101031068117015114122066031063059088049089096097000013023038035031000011019069101007032058074088073013002016066017078114095024090075069117077089122030018040043066068041105031085108117033015089063010015100089095026116092064105103127022012087104094082127005064091090079006082083004&EXT=pdf&INDEX=TRUE\">60% of young people feel worried\u003c/a> or extremely worried about climate change. And more than half of the respondents relayed feelings of fear for their future and hesitancy when thinking of major life decisions like having children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some young people now feel pressure to take climate action, since it seems like their future is at stake. In California, there are many young activists who are channeling their climate anxiety into action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diana Michaelson is a 16-year-old junior at Long Beach Polytechnic High School who has been worried about climate change since her first year. That’s when she learned her hometown of Long Beach would be facing serious sea level rise by the time she’s 25.[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Nik Evasco, youth climate organizer and program manager, 350 Bay Area\"]‘Young people are going to be impacted for the majority of their lives by whatever climate is to come or is happening right now.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve always been told to do it for your children, save the future for the next generation,” said Michaelson. “And what I’ve realized is, at this current rate, there’s no saving the next generation. We’re seeing the effects right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michaelson is leading a \u003ca href=\"https://www.polygsc.com/\">student initiative\u003c/a> to transition her school district off fossil fuels to 100% renewable energy by 2030. A similar campaign has already been passed by the Los Angeles Unified School District: Since their commitment in 2007 to becoming an environmentally friendly urban school district, they’ve decreased their electricity, natural gas and water use and have developed more green spaces across the district.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Michaelson says she was able to connect with a few of the leaders from LAUSD’s campaign, which pushed her to begin her own in Long Beach.

During the pandemic, yoga studios in the Bay Area and across the country were forced to adapt and change again. In doing so, many began offering classes online and reaching a wider audience than they might have in person.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some say the history of white westerners co-opting yoga as a practice has created an elitist culture within the industry. Yet with the accessibility of online yoga classes, more people have been able to incorporate yoga into their lifestyles and daily rituals.

She also has a podcast called \u003ca href=\"https://www.yogaisdeadpodcast.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Yoga Is Dead\u003c/a>, which dives into the colonization of yoga. Patel and co-host Jesal Parikh, who both identify as South Asian American, explore topics of capitalism, diet culture and who is teaching and benefiting from yoga.

Eighteen months later – after living with a friend in Albany and moving between different motels in Oakland – they were able to secure housing through a Section 8 lottery.

Teague was able to make connections with the unhoused residents of the park and pick up meals or other donated resources. The park community also helped Teague immensely by welcoming them into a safe space. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was really shaky, I had a tough time,\" Teague said. \"The park community and the resources helped more than I can say until I got it together.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t until 2018 – when UC Berkeley announced plans to build a student housing development on the park's location – that Teague decided to join local organizers as a member of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/savepeoplespark/\">People's Park Committee\u003c/a>, a group dedicated to taking care of the park grounds and its residents by distributing meals in partnership with \u003ca href=\"https://eastbayfoodnotbombs.org/about/\">East Bay Food Not Bombs\u003c/a>.

On May 15, 1969 – which would become known as \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/chronicle_vault/article/People-s-Park-Bloody-Thursday-50-years-later-13845759.php\">Bloody Thursday\u003c/a> – police and sheriff’s deputies moved in, made arrests and sealed off the park's perimeter. Mass protests followed that action as students and members of the Berkeley community clashed with police. Dozens of people were injured, and a \u003ca href=\"https://datebook.sfchronicle.com/books/newfound-photos-mark-50th-anniversary-of-the-day-peoples-park-turned-deadly\">25-year-old bystander died days later after being hit by a police shotgun blast\u003c/a>. Then-Gov. Ronald Reagan called in the National Guard the following day. Students and faculty eventually voted to keep the park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 52 years later, UC Berkeley is again determined to reclaim the park, pointing to a dire need for student housing. The proposed development is expected to be up to 17 stories high and house over 1,000 students. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"Alecia Harger, UC Berkeley student participating in the current People's Park occupation\"]'A lot of people have considered the development of People’s Park to be an unfortunate inevitability.

In a response echoing 1969, students and local residents tore down the fencing, carried it four blocks and dumped it outside Sproul Hall. After the university was quick to resurrect the fencing, an occupation began at the park on Feb. 8, organized by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/peoplesparkberkeley/?igshid=1kis8zt5skpm3\">Save People’s Park Movement\u003c/a>. It continues on as students set up shifts in groups of 20 to 30 people to occupy alongside the park's residents. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alecia Harger, a UC Berkeley undergraduate student participating in the occupation, said the movement has gained more attention as videos and photos from the occupation and park events continue to be shared on Instagram. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that within the Berkeley community a lot of people have considered the development of People’s Park to be an unfortunate inevitability,” Harger said. “And we are showing that it is not an inevitability and that we have the ability to push back.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each week, open meetings are planned and donations are distributed to residents of the park and other unhoused folks by volunteers and members of the People's Park Committee.

Eighteen months later – after living with a friend in Albany and moving between different motels in Oakland – they were able to secure housing through a Section 8 lottery. Teague’s new home was located near People’s Park, a few blocks from the UC Berkeley campus. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The park quickly became a beacon of comfort and community for them. Teague was able to make connections with the unhoused residents of the park and pick up meals or other donated resources. The park community also helped Teague immensely by welcoming them into a safe space. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was really shaky, I had a tough time,\" Teague said. \"The park community and the resources helped more than I can say until I got it together.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It wasn’t until 2018 – when UC Berkeley announced plans to build a student housing development on the park's location – that Teague decided to join local organizers as a member of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/savepeoplespark/\">People's Park Committee\u003c/a>, a group dedicated to taking care of the park grounds and its residents by distributing meals in partnership with \u003ca href=\"https://eastbayfoodnotbombs.org/about/\">East Bay Food Not Bombs\u003c/a>. Teague said the university has done little to acknowledge the communal significance behind the park. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You would think that if they wanted to have a relationship with the city that they would respect the fact that People’s Park is a Berkeley landmark. It has been since 1984,” Teague said. “It’s a precious area to the city and they don’t seem to see that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11862379\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/RS47352_018_Berkeley_PeoplesPark_02192021-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11862379\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/RS47352_018_Berkeley_PeoplesPark_02192021-qut.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/RS47352_018_Berkeley_PeoplesPark_02192021-qut-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/RS47352_018_Berkeley_PeoplesPark_02192021-qut-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/RS47352_018_Berkeley_PeoplesPark_02192021-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/02/RS47352_018_Berkeley_PeoplesPark_02192021-qut-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lisa Teague receives a plate of food from the volunteer-run kitchen at People's Park in Berkeley on Feb. 19, 2021. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The history of People’s Park dates back to its creation in 1969 by Berkeley residents after a first attempt by UC Berkeley to build student housing on the site fizzled and the lot, which the university owns, was left deserted. On May 15, 1969 – which would become known as \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/chronicle_vault/article/People-s-Park-Bloody-Thursday-50-years-later-13845759.php\">Bloody Thursday\u003c/a> – police and sheriff’s deputies moved in, made arrests and sealed off the park's perimeter. Mass protests followed that action as students and members of the Berkeley community clashed with police. Dozens of people were injured, and a \u003ca href=\"https://datebook.sfchronicle.com/books/newfound-photos-mark-50th-anniversary-of-the-day-peoples-park-turned-deadly\">25-year-old bystander died days later after being hit by a police shotgun blast\u003c/a>. Then-Gov. Ronald Reagan called in the National Guard the following day. Students and faculty eventually voted to keep the park.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 52 years later, UC Berkeley is again determined to reclaim the park, pointing to a dire need for student housing. The proposed development is expected to be up to 17 stories high and house over 1,000 students. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In a response echoing 1969, students and local residents tore down the fencing, carried it four blocks and dumped it outside Sproul Hall. After the university was quick to resurrect the fencing, an occupation began at the park on Feb. 8, organized by the \u003ca href=\"https://www.instagram.com/peoplesparkberkeley/?igshid=1kis8zt5skpm3\">Save People’s Park Movement\u003c/a>.
