Ella Emhoff, the step-daughter of former Vice President Kamala Harris, took to TikTok on Thursday to express her deep “anxiety” about climate change.
Emhoff posted a six-minute video of herself expressing her “disgust” and fear about the current state of the environment. She stated that the feelings about “climate anxiety” have made her feel “very heavy.”
“Like everyone, I feel disgust at what’s going on in the world. Genocides, the loss of lives, the loss of healthcare, the just general fear that everyone has surrounding affordability, their lives, their livelihood. Like, everything. It’s just, it feels so big. I think everything with the environment is really fucking getting to me and it is one I experience. A lot of climate anxiety like a lot of us do. It’s not funny,” Emhoff said.

Emhoff’s father, Doug, had an estimated net worth of $6 million in 2024, while her stepmother served as vice president from Jan. 20, 2021, until Jan. 20, 2025. Harris and Emhoff’s combined net worth is over $8 million, primarily due to their property value in Los Angeles.
The political left has amplified fears about climate change for decades. MSNBC panelist Anand Giridharadas claimed on Tuesday that he is more “afraid” of climate change than of getting mugged in Washington, D.C., even as several high-profile crimes have taken place in the district throughout 2025.
When casting her vote for Democratic New York City mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani, Emhoff also spoke of her anxiety and trauma when she returned to the polling booth where she voted for her stepmother.
“It was a little traumatic walking to the same voting place as I did in November, but I feel so much hope for New York and what @zohrankmamdani will bring,” Emhoff said.
Emhoff is the daughter of Doug and his first wife, Kersten Mackin. Her parents’ marriage ended in divorce after Doug had an affair and impregnated the nanny.
