. Research shows most youth are"extremely worried" about it, leading to a phenomenon called climate anxiety. Kids and young adults who struggle with this can perceive they have no future or that humanity is doomed.

The study also revealed how climate change makes young people feel. In all countries surveyed, nearly 62% said they were anxious about climate change. About 67% said they were sad and afraid. current situation in the world"I don't think it makes sense as a disorder because, again, that one assumes that this is a psychopathology of a few rather than the majority," said Schwartz.

"We're supposed to just partake in anything we can, like if there is some sort of thing going on of planting trees, like participate in that," said Flores."Or if there's some sort of event, just even a trash pickup, people should participate in that because it helps the community so much." With a group so focused on the environmental problems in their neighborhood, it's no surprise that they also worry about climate change.

"Higher climate change anxiety is correlated with higher clinical symptoms of depression and anxiety," said Schwartz."But what we saw was that for young people who have high levels of climate anxiety, if they also have high levels of activism, then we didn't see any higher levels of depression symptoms."

No, really? They also lack ambition, face to face social skills, and the survival skills of previous generations.

😂🤣🤪

This article is pure 🐴💩, along with the whole fear mongering narrative that mass media creates with its mass formation 5th generation psychological warfare. News isn't news anymore, it's just blatant misinformation and propaganda. Wise up America.

Pat yourselves on the back!

I’m old and it scares the crap out of me!!!!

The lefts alarmism is destroying a generation. From climate change to covid. They don’t care, just want power

The entire climate agenda is a hoax. Stop pushing propaganda.

It takes two high paid presidents of news to put out this dung.

When you repeat often enough that the sky is falling eventually people will believe that the sky is falling and that causes anxiety.

Better lock yourselves in doors. Life time to flatten the curve.

Being grounded in reality is now a phenomenon?

CBS you are pathetic

Yeah... they also believed their student loans would be paid. They should worry about the draft being reinstated.

The boomers and ruling class are just doing wonders for mental health in this country.

That is because of the media's push of the propaganda in cartoons.

I mean, concerted efforts at brainwashing people for the most part work.

It's disgusting how older generations aren't 'extremely worried' and selfishly keep doing business as usual.

And you unstill that fear constantly, day after day, year after year, decade after decade. And yet not one of the numerous catastrophic predictions laid out has come true. The 'cry wolf' routine is tiring. And BTW, America leads the pack in being careful of mother nature.

Then stop doing segments that 'wonder' why today's youth have mental health challenges and make the damn connection!! It's GenX on down who feel this, and good lord, it's not rocket science on why!

Not what I observe. Youth (and parents) buy cheap clothes made overseas, wear once, throw on the floor. Upgrade mobile phones, devices, toys,etc.Everything is 'disposable' to them. Recycling and awareness start at home

Democrats are evil, doing this to kids

And they're completely correct – they're the ones that are going to have to live in the messed up future we're leaving them. No need to frame this as a psychological problem. That's like focusing on 'abuse anxiety' when the actual problem is that children are being abused at home

🧐🤣🥱😴☠️

Just getting demolished here in the responses. You worthless scumbags.

Lol!!!! Good job msm. Mission accomplished

The 'climate change' cult is no different than the doomsday cults like Jim Jones's Peoples Temple or Heaven's Gate.

Way to play into CLIMATE CHANGE narrative JUST like the Pfi-Zer scientist got caught saying would happen….. EXACTLY why they made it snow in So Ca. 😳🤔

And this is how governments control you, it’s through fear.. the climate hasn’t changed, the planets temp hasn’t changed,sea levels haven’t risen,ice caps haven’t melted.. billionaires on tv telling you to eat bugs and turn off your lights whilst they fly private jets. It’s a con

Get to work & all your climate worries disappear instantly.

Well when legacy media and that crypt keeper president touch that narrative 24/7, impressionable kids just believe it. It takes an adult to dive into the data and realize that’s it is almost a non-issue.

More worried about inflation and getting murdered while visiting a city

Dir... climate change has been happening for millions of years.

This just means the youngest most impressionable minds have been manipulated BY YOU to worry about climate change

The left wants kids to think the world is going to end and it doesn't care what mental effect that has on them. Why? The left hates children.

Insecure candy asses cuddled and nurtured by elitism and their government pawns

We love to abuse children with hopeless, hyperbolic doomsday scenarios & then wonder why they are mentally ill.

Wasted anxiety on a non real threat

The media/social media is ALWAYS the reason for anxiety for any issue.

More fabricated garbage. Our youth have been brainwashed in school. Homeschool. Don’t allow these litards into your children’s head.

That’s because educators and msm have shoved this bullshit down their throats.

Well if the media would stop scaring the youth they would feel better.

Brought to them by the msm

How sad suffering from anxiety from something that isn't real. But this is how the establishment controls the masses, with fear! Americans just watched their fear campaign over the last 3 years.

Might have something to do with all the fear porn that they’re being fed

LMAO!!

Well it’s all fake news created stop it.

So sad

Climate change is all about control.
