Those with climate anxiety fall into one of three groups, Kpenkaan, the content creator, theorizes: “The hustle culture aficionados who believe if they get rich enough they can money their way through the upcoming crises; the people who are sort of going through the motions and trying to find joy outside of work; and those who are starting to engage in activism to combat the upcoming climate crisis and working only to support themselves.”
Was just thinking about this the other day. Maybe the generations that truly experience climate change will have an inherent motivation to not contribute to it, instead recognizing the futility of the prior generations' denials and the futility of believing in a future that doesn't combat the challenge.
Climate change is the number one reason (with the grotesque inhumanity of the great satan :amerikkka: a close second) I refuse to have children. humans probably aren't going extinct, but I'm not going to bring a life into this world to navigate the upcoming horrors that were no fault of their own.
