Man-eating tigers could hunt down more humans due to climate change
The reasons why big cats turn on humans are complex and can be specific to individuals. But they can no longer be explained outside the context of climate change. ...
I've been thinking.
Maybe we SHOULD listen to the kinds of people that mercilessly harassed Kavanugh when they scream at us about climate change.
Maybe we SHOULD listen to those who fiercely argue that delusional men with dicks should be able to ruin women's sports, when they want to take our money for good cause like climate change.
Maybe we SHOULD listen to those who believe it's okay to kill eight and a half month old fetus but must save the snail darters, when they scream about how there's only twelve years left to save the planet.
Maybe we SHOULD listen to those who want to shut down free and open discussion on Reddit, Facebook and Twitter when they lecture us about climate change.
NAW!!!!.......Lori Rodriguez, a 27-year-old communications professional in New York City, is not saving for retirement, and it isn’t necessarily because she can’t afford to — it’s because she doesn’t expect it to matter.
Like many people her age, Rodriguez believes climate change will have catastrophic effects on our planet. Some 88% of millennials — a higher percentage than any other age group — accept that climate change is happening, and 69% say it will impact them in their lifetimes. Engulfed in a constant barrage of depressing news stories, many young people are skeptical about saving for an uncertain future.
“I want to hope for the best and plan for a future that is stable and secure, but, when I look at current events and at the world we are predicting, I do not see how things could not be chaotic in 50 years,” Rodriguez says. “The weather systems are already off, and I don’t think it’s hyperbolic to be a little apocalyptic.”
Mental-health issues affecting young adults and adolescents in the U.S. have increased significantly in the past decade, a study published in March in the Journal of Abnormal Psychology found. The number of individuals between the ages of 18 and 25 reporting symptoms of major depression increased 52% from 2005 to 2017, while older adults did not experience any increase in psychological stress at this time, and some age groups even saw decreases. Study author Jean Twenge says this may be attributed to the increased use of digital media, which has changed modes of interaction enough to impact social lives and communication. Millennials are also said to suffer from “eco-anxiety,” according to a 2018 report from the American Psychological Association, with 72% saying their emotional well-being is affected by the inevitability of climate change, compared with just 57% of people over the age of 45.

Why are they still alive then?
