Back in 2014, my partner and I marked a date in our shared online calendar. Unusually, this was for 27 August 2015 – a year ahead. It was an arbitrary date. (Snip) Climate change harms mental wellbeing in a number of ways. From trauma and stress following disasters, to relationship damage caused by separation and displacement, the psychological effects of climate change can be enduring. Of course, these effects are heightened for certain vulnerable populations, such as elderly and low-income people, as well as those on the frontlines of climate change. But even people whose lives and livelihoods don’t depend

If the earth didn't tilt would the climate change?
Who can control the tilt of the earth?

When I was younger we only had to worry about Nuclear Holocaust. Then it was the coming ice age, then worldwide famine from overpopulation. Did I mention acid rain or the hole in the ozone. We were going to freeze from lack of oil and Yellowstone was sure to blow soon. Now I have to sell my SUV.

"these effects are heightened for certain vulnerable populations"

I'm going to need to take my therapy tree with me on airline flights. Don't worry, I may be potty, but it's in a pot.

This article is quite a glimpse into the mind of a person who has been thoroughly brainwashed into this amazing pyramid scheme of deception.
The emphasis on the range of fear-based emotions exposes how the brainwashing has primarily impacted feelings, mainly fear, instead of the impulse to problem-solving, which has been the story of mankind through all of history. There's plenty of evidence of various catastrophic disasters, but the response as a rule was to rebuild, start over, figure out a better way, innovate, invent, create.
So while the cult of lies has been taught and promulgated, many have made many millions.
But now we have children who have known nothing but the threat of bogeyman industrialists and fossil-fuel monsters. "Climate psychologists"? At some point the perpetual children are going to find out that they've been lied to, terrorized, manipulated. What sort of catastrophic eruptions of mental anguish will occur?
And this is why these frauds can not look at the evidence or entertain the thought that they are wrong because their whole world will come crashing down around them.
This is hucksterism created and driven by the cruelest of charlatans, frauds, phonies has developed an enormous and very prosperous industry which gets millions of dollars in grants and aid purportedly to "solve the problem." But instead, they funnel the monies into fraudulent new psychology fields which then need more grants, like this "climate psychologist".
The leaders of this pagan cult may advocate or demand that terrified people take up the flagellants' whips, while they themselves book airplane flights with not a bit of guilt or remorse. And the author claims that "history is rife with examples of parents preparing to end their children's lives" presumably in order to save them from a worse fate? Parents will give their children their last grain of wheat, but actually contemplate murdering their children?
This is horrific. Incredible, that these people will not think scientifically for one minute and look at the "other" evidence which debunks their hypotheses, while stuffing money into their pockets.
Similarly, once the Mueller and Russian Collusion balloon burst and collapsed, did Dems admit and apologize? nope. They had to begin another hoax and start connecting flimsy network of new lies. It would be liberating if they all would confess and purge their souls.
Better, if these folks are that terrified they ought to prepare to throw themselves on the funeral pyre to save the future.

As a child in the 50s we had bomb drills on Fridays with huge loudspeakers in the city sounding the alarm at 10am. Then in the 70s it was the ice age is coming! 20 years later Al Gore predicted 2015 would be catastrophic from global warming. 2015 came and went. The doomsayers started calling it climate change early on probably from embarrassment when they realized the earth wasn't actually getting warmer, so climate change was a nice catchall phrase. Amazing that the teachers in the 50s made a game out of it, no hysterical children. Today children are being emotionally abused by the adults and we have both hysterical adults AND children. This is what happens when your god is the climate (otherwise known for millennia as weather). Sacrifices must be made to appease it. My faith is in Jesus Christ; regardless of the weather He is in my boat and He brings peace because He controls the weather, not me.

Too many people spend too much time worrying about things that never happen and never will happen.

I believe this is what is called "sick puppies". Get a grip nothing is happening that has not happened before. CO2is .04% of the atmosphere hardly enough to be noticed except by plants that need it to thrive. These idiots apparently have never studied biology or chemistry or anything worthwhile in their pathetic lives. Hey nitwits, the planet is 80% water, 20 percent land and we occupy less than half of that land. We are hardly what drives the weather, there is a very large disc up there called the sun and it has a lot more to do with our lives than anything you might dream up in your wildest nightmares. There are also other things under our feet known as volcanoes. You should try opening a real science book once in awhile instead of "Tales from the Climate Crypt".
