Why is there so much anxiety about climate change? Is the world really coming to an end? Should young people be afraid? In an era of remarkable human achievement, this book challenges the prevailing narrative of doom surrounding climate change. It argues that while young people in the West grapple with anxiety, many others around the globe face far more pressing concerns. This provocative exploration shows how wealth, innovation, and resilience have historically led to human flourishing, even amidst environmental changes. The book dismantles myths of impending catastrophe and advocates for a rational approach to adaptation instead of fear-driven policies.
