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?

Don't bother with long term planning or worry too much about pensions or career advancement.
The Chinese concept of "lying flat" in response to immense amounts of insignificant, monotonous work.
This is already me.
You're second two points are terrible pieces of advice
They really are.
Every generation since the dawn of mankind thought that the world was about to end.
Things are gonna get a bit shit in the coming decades - but really that's all the more reason to save some money.
Me. Don't have any ambition left in me.
