    And will you still feel the same in 20 years time when your children are starving or fighting in wars for fresh water?

      I sincerely doubt most people will be starving. Global population should peak about 25% higher than now, agriculture and diets will change and move - adapt, but it won’t be equitable. So I do expect my kids may need to fight - in a non-violent way - for a better distribution of water and other resources.

        Life is a movie to sheltered internet dweebs like them lol.

        Climate change is real as fuck. And unless the people replying are already in hugely disadvantaged 3rd world countries coupled with hazardous terrain susceptible to ocean rise and/or jet stream change, they’ll be fine.

        Life will always feel like a struggle no matter how utopian our society. It’s the natural mode of life to instinctually fight for survival. If there’s nothing to fight, our brains literally imagine stuff for us. Hello GAD, Panic Disorder, etc.
