This is not exactly a new thing, but just to discuss again is the "newish" mental health issue known as "eco anxiety". Yes, many younger people literally suffer from anxiety because of their fears about climate change. They have anxiety due to something that they have almost no control over. Sadly, many younger people these days are anxiety-ridden about many issues that just weren't a problem say 30-40 years ago. They weren't a problem because we grew up with coping skils. Now, it's more like "I'll just avoid all conflict".
