I started getting sad about climate change two years ago after seeing Planet Earth and many documentaries. I completely changed my lifestyle to reduce my part and put significant effort into it.
But seeing rich celebrities who use as much as a common man’s lifetime resources in a week or two, and others who barely put in any effort to combat it, and corporations fucking the entire planet for quarterly profits, barely any efforts towards fighting it even though we had known about its consequences 30-40 years ago, I get this feeling that my efforts are even worth it.
Slowly, I told myself that evolution failed itself by giving a bit more individual selfishness over community/species survival. Just like human beings, Earth’s time has started to end. Its death is inevitable. Everything should come to an end. Only if evolution had given a bit more thought to species survival, we would be in a much better place.
How do you all deal with this?

People only caring if it personally affects them is a part of how it got this bad in the first place.

Lmao climate change isn’t an illusion, what are you talking about
We’re not talking about natural climate changes, we’re talking about climate change caused by human actions.

You’re talking nonsense. Yes, living people are currently causing climate change. Those most responsible have names and addresses.
This is just embarrassingly ignorant. The climate is deteriorating faster than scientists predicted, not slower.
Your answer to OP’s question is denial and a refusal to actually investigate the situation.

I fear going outside during the summer day because i feel seek from staying in the heat for too long
Does that count as “impacting my personal life”?
