The Emotional Toll Of Climate Anxiety Is Hurting Our Kids

Climate anxiety is used to describe a collection of psychological symptoms triggered by incessant propaganda about rising temperatures and changing weather patterns.

Also known as “eco-anxiety,” “eco-guilt,” and “eco-grief,” climate anxiety can be paralyzing and debilitating, especially among people aged 16 to 34. This malady has been labeled one of the top threats to global health in the 21st century. [emphasis, links added]


A 2021 survey of 10,000 youngsters, aged 16 to 25 from 10 different countries, found 84% of the respondents were “moderately worried” about climate change.

Over 50% reported feelings of sadness, anxiety, anger, powerlessness, helplessness, and guilt.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

The climate change cult is guilty of child abuse and encouraging gullible politicians to squander billions of dollars for NOTHING!

They are being told they are not really a boy or a girl, that the world is going to end, the oceans boil, and anything they might like to eat is bad for them and the planet. Groomers are circling like vultures.


What ever happened to the adults dealing with problems and letting the kids be kids?

The Left has stolen a lot from a tremendous number of people, but nothing holds a candle to stealing these childrens' childhood.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

That is the sad fact. It's one thing to pick away at adult's security...but making kids scared from the get go is wrong. Sure, I used to be scared of not being a good girl and Santa wouldn't come. Or the Russians would drop a nuclear bomb. But there was protection for that...just get under your desk, lol. These poor kids today are scared from all different directions.
