Teenagers and people in their early 20s are increasingly worried that older generations and political leaders aren’t doing enough to prevent a climate-change catastrophe. They’re so concerned, in fact, that four in 10 aren’t sure they’ll have children of their own.
Three-quarters agreed with the statement “the future is frightening,” while more than half felt they would have fewer economic opportunities than their parents. Nearly half reported feeling anxious about the climate to a degree that was affecting their daily lives and functioning.Anxiety may be linked in part to the release of major climate-change reports to hit mainstream news.
Earlier this month, in an unprecedented joint statement from more than 200 U.S. and international medical journals, medical leaders warned that global warming packs the “greatest threat” to public health, especially vulnerable ages and the developing world.The “Young People’s Voices” poll talked to people in Australia, Brazil, Finland, France, India, Nigeria, the Philippines, Portugal, the U.K. and the U.S. It was paid for by the 14-year-old U.S. activist organization Avaaz.
