What is going to happen when people realize the true consequences of climate change?
I often wonder how the general population will react when they truly realize the impacts of climate change. I'd imagine there could be three reactions:
- Apathy, as in completely shutting down
- Panic, as in severe mental breakdown
- Action, protesting etc
Now that I think of it these are the fight, flight, freeze reactions. Any thoughts?

There'd still be denial.
Don't look up.
This is where we are now and I don't see it changing.
The weather here is fucked. It's really different to 10 years ago, before that it was pretty much the same.
We get massive heat waves and record breaking temps every year. The once in a decade major storms now happen several times a year. We hardly get snow in parts of the country that used to get it every year.
We're only mildly affected compared to many places.
