A study published in The Lancet found that over 50% of U.S. youth are "extremely worried" about climate change. In response, universities like Cornell are reframing their curriculum to focus on "solutions and emotions" to combat climate anxiety. Critics argue that media outlets like NPR are "terrorizing" children with data, necessitating these new academic coping mechanisms.

A coalition of 42 states has filed a federal lawsuit against Meta, alleging that Facebook and Instagram are designed to be addictive to children. The discussion posits that the timing and the specific states involved suggest the lawsuit is a political threat to ensure Meta's cooperation during the upcoming election cycle. The "addictive" nature of the platforms is compared to the dopamine response of consumer products like Oreos.

Therapists identify three primary groups suffering from severe climate anxiety: frontline scientists, individuals who have suffered direct losses from natural disasters, and children. Young adults are reportedly reconsidering major life decisions, such as starting families, due to fears about the planet's future. This psychological distress is linked to historical instances of children expressing public grief over environmental policy.
