[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Young people are sad about how the Earth and enviornment has been messed up. Compound that with inequity in wealth and civil liberties anda hugely polluted Earth and is it really worth living anymore?  Social media has also corrupted our perception of reality and it is hard to feel good about ourselves.

What is working well?  What's to look forward to in life?[/quote]

Young person here - my corner of the planet is fine. It used to be only crazy Greenpeace activists worked up about this stuff - you really think an entire generation is killing itself over it?[/quote]

It is good to hear that you do not sound worried.

We Can only go by what young people tell us and many of them say they are anxious about climate change: there have been youth demonstrations all over the world. Many mental health professionals report very high rates of anxiety and depression among youth and that many of them report feeling hopeless about the future. Large numbers of youth either do not want children or are delaying for years due to concerns about the stability of their futures.
