Climate Anxiety and the Fall in Births By Mrs Abigail Knight (Florida)
The latest thing being pushed on the youth is the trendy cult of eco-anxiety, anxiety about the so-called environmental crisis. The main version of this is climate anxiety, where youth come to experience anxiety symptoms, often physical such as deep depression, and insomnia. This is largely a phenomena seen in the West, where the alleged effects of the radical climate change scenario is not being played out. The globalist narrative has always been that the West is at fault for this by creating the modern world with is comforts, that keeps the Third World populations expanding, so the West must pay out to the Third World until the lifestyle of all is equal at the bottom of the globalist wheelie bin.
It is clear that climate anxiety is, to use the terminology of our Leftist enemies, a social construction, something that youth undergoing the brainwashing of our education system, experience. And the idea that this is leading such people not to have children is only partially true, since that would be most applicable to those undoing higher education in the universities, cesspools of this woke nonsense. For most young people, the cost-of-living issues, including a rental and housing crisis, are of a greater concern than some abstract worry about climate, derived from a dodgy computer model.
“Experts are warning about a declining birth rate in the U.S.
As with many things, they spot the problem but fail to identify the main causes of the problem.
According to Fox News:
Population rate decline in the US triggers economic alarms from experts: 'Calamitous effect'
CDC data shows birth rates fell by 22% since 2007
For decades the media, so-called experts, scientists, educators, and other Democrats have been told there are too many humans and we are destroying the planet.
Young women have been told that humans and CO2 are destroying the Earth and we only have a few years left.
Why would impressionable women, who are the only people capable of giving birth, want to bring children into an environment where they would only have a few years left and when more children will further destroy the planet?
And the media and other Democrats promote abortion and seek to destroy crisis pregnancy centers and other pro-life entities, too.
Isn't that a major cause of the decline in births?
Is it any wonder that so many young people are depressed and contemplate suicide when journalists work so hard every day to indoctrinate them on how dangerous humans and our use of natural resources is to the planet?
Kamala Harris spews fear about the climate every day and then seems clueless as to why the young have climate anxiety.
Harris claims ‘climate anxiety’ has young people doubting the ‘sense’ of having children, buying homes.
It goes on and on. And none of these so-called 'experts' seems to be able to make a connection.”
“Vice President Harris argued Tuesday that young people are experiencing "climate anxiety" that causes them to rethink major future plans like having a family due to the environmental impact.
At the latest stop in her national "Fight for Our Freedoms" college tour, Harris told an audience at the Reading Area Community College in Berks County, Pennsylvania, that the Biden-Harris ticket saw a record turnout of young voters during the 2020 election, inspiring the administration’s initiative toward student loan forgiveness, which recently hit a roadblock in court.
"We're not going to stop fighting for that. Because young people said, we're not leaving it to other people to decide how we're dealing with the climate crisis. You know, I've heard young leaders talk with me about a term they've coined, ‘climate anxiety,’" Harris said, pivoting, "Which is fear of the future and the unknown of whether it makes sense for you to even think about having children, whether it makes sense for you to think about aspiring to buy a home because what will this climate be?"
Several critics on social media erupted against Harris' "climate anxiety" claim, arguing Americans are more likely to consider the rising costs of energy, food and housing when making the decision to have children. The Republican-led House Budget Committee has blamed the Biden administration’s economic policies for leading to the most rapid increase in mortgage rates since 1981. A Gallup poll from May found a record low 21% of Americans think it is a good time to buy a home.
