I often wonder how the general population will react when they truly realize the impacts of climate change. I’d imagine there could be three reactions:

  • Apathy, as in completely shutting down
  • Panic, as in severe mental breakdown
  • Action, protesting etc

Now that I think of it these are the fight, flight, freeze reactions. Any thoughts?

    There will never be some collective epiphany that turns everyone into a climate activist, so business as usual.
