The other day this headline popped up in my email: Study finds widespread climate anxiety among young Americans. The headline had the desired effect. I wanted to understand the details. The articles covering the study were summaries, mostly of the findings. Neither article I saw offered much (anything) in terms of an in-depth analysis.
Given my trust-level in the press (and in advocates on both sides of the climate argument for that matter) has deteriorated over the years, I decided to look at the entire study to form my own opinion of its findings.
Today’s post provides the study’s findings along with my assessment of those findings. There was too much to cover in one post so tomorrow I’ll continue with my assessment, focusing on what I considered interesting or potentially most informative from the study.
