@Amgine It is interesting to see how people can be mistaken about climate change action.
We know that climate change is mainly a question of power from an elite how decides to make money knowing that the poorest will pay the consequences. Carbon emissions grow as capitalism does.
Climate change is a political decision.
This is overwhelming and the oppression over citizens is very heavy.
Stress over young generations is acting almost invisibly and mental disorder like depression is one of the consequences.
Surprisingly some NGO’s and environmental association decide not to fight politically. They prefer to plant trees that we knows don’t have the power to reverse carbon emissions, or worse, they call for joining local beach cleanups, forgetting that the litter on a beach has nothing to do with climate change.
Doing so they are not helping the anxiety due to climate change… they make it worse.
Of course the social action is positive, but the real problem is still here, not attended.
Climate change anxiety is better treated when we see it as grieving. What is lost is lost for ever. What is extinct won’t flourish again.
Sadness, rage and rebellion, acceptance are steps on the healing path.
It is important not to be part of the greenwashing if we don’t want this young generation to feel more betrayed.
