FABRICATED FEAR

3/18/2024

 
Picture


Do you experience distress, fear, anxiety, guilt or shame over the future of the planet?

While the feeling is legitimate for some people, debunking the doom and bust future scenario should delegitimize the concept behind this paranoia. 

Marketers and governments and cause-oriented groups milked the concept of a dystopian future where a zero-sum game of extinction or paradise is logically untenable.

In reality, we will continue to face not just climatic changes but overall fundamental devastation of the environment due to wanton abuse and degradation. Lower-level island nations will experience more extreme weather hazards. Unless things change.

Global governance systems have been stuck for many years. The political will to protect the oceans, forests, land, and the systems of commons is too weak and volatile, hostage to narrow interests. Capitalist growth-oriented economics do not respect nature and its regenerative requirements. 

There are people that are suspected to commit arson in the forests and blame it on climate change. There are marketers and propaganda agents seriously laughing their way to the bank because they help overexaggerate the zero-sum claims of climate doom. 

If you're really afraid and anxious about this, go get yourself checked. It may not be the climate fuelling this mental health issue but could be part of larger symptom of a societal neuroses being played out on ordinary people like you and me.
