1 Simple Question That Could Improve Women’s Health | Meryam Sugulle | TED
There’s a reliable indicator of a woman’s future likelihood of cardiovascular disease — but it rarely gets asked about, says obstetrician and researcher Meryam Sugulle. She delves into the role of the placenta in pregnancy, how it can predict health outcomes and the single question that should be worked into routine health screenings. If you…

For the billionth time, it’s not about personal decisions. A small handful of corps, and an even smaller handful of investors and fossil fuel lobbyists are doing the most damage.

Individuals have almost no ability to impact climate change, it’s all about corporate-scale behavior. This is just another way of telling us to use cloth grocery bags to save the world or whatever. Irresponsible and it just increases guilt.

“…from food waste to fast fashion…”
And that’s when I knew this video was a bunch of bs. Eating leftovers and not buying new shirts is not going to stop climate change, and suggesting this as a course of action is completely misguided and deceptive. Climate change is not about the choices of individual consumers. It’s about the choices of governments and corporations, which are practically one and the same in the current reality.

Great natural speaker but doesn’t actually say anything. Let’s sum it up: people are more anxious about environmental issues. She identifies the ones that are most anxious. Then tells them best way to cope with that anxiety is to find their one contribution to a complex issue with no single solution.
Brilliant.
I can make a cake by cracking an egg😮
Not only will I not have really made a cake but my contribution may well inhibit other cake making activities.
It also does make me less hungry (or anxious). The young feel anxious because they are powerless but are made to feel responsible. Me and my generation are the ones that need to empower them.

It’s laughable that people are so anxious yet don’t do anything significant to help with climate change. Meat eating is a primary driver of global warming for many reasons such as deforestation, methane emissions, pollution, health problems and water shortage. Simply changing one’s shopping list and not paying into this animal agriculture industry would create a massive change but hey! It’s easier to moan about it or berate the very people who do change isn’t it

Climate change is impossible to stop and you don’t want to stop it. Carbon dioxide going into the atmosphere is healthy for the environment. How? What breaths carbon dioxide? Trees. Trees will be healthier and grow more. What do trees produce? Oxygen! That’s what humans breath btw. It’s been proven that many years ago the earth was way warmer than it is today and yet plants and animals were larger than anything we see today.

The only real solution is to transition out of capitalism, which requires inequality, competition, scarcity, and infinite growth amid finite resources. It does little to ask individuals to take responsibility for systemic design that incentivizes unsustainable and deeply inhumane behavior.

And yet in the recent U.S.midterms, the 18-29 age group had a pathetic 27% voter turnout. If they’re concerned about their future and the future of the planet, why don’t they vote for the political party that acknowledges the climate change problem (Democrats and Progressives) and is enacting the legislation necessary to mitigate the problem. Unless you engage in the political process and vote for candidates who share your concerns, you get the future you deserve and it is nobody’s fault but your own.

The question is how do you tell people we are all going to die soon anyway, then motivate them to action. Nobody is interested in telling the truth regardless of where on the spectrum of severity that falls, only extreme ideological “positions”. It seems to me the environmental movement backed themselves into a corner where they motivated people to go from “Hey we can actually do something.” to “If the world is going to end soon anyway, why bother.” The key to shifting out of despair is to admit that humans have damaged the climate, and that it is serious, but that it may not quite be the existential doom story everyone seems to believe. But to do that, people on the right would have to admit they underplayed it, and the left would have to admit they may have overstated the case a bit. Balance is the key, rather than justifying exaggeration and hyperbole on grounds of ideology. Seek the truth, not power.

unfortunately its justified cuz the truth there is nothing can be done about it at this point… being positive is pointless and actually little detrimental even.. it would feel good to hold some of the worst individuals who stood in the way when action could of helped responsible in a very public and vicious act of punishment…

Well… firstly everyone could stop lieing about how “climate change” is something we created or can really change in any real way and stop creating this false fear that the world is going to end in a ball of fire if we don’t “do something now” to stop it and start telling people the truth that the planet goes through climate parabolas on a regular basis naturally…lets start with that…. also throw greta thunberg off a bringe… just for funzies

I ask the Climate Change Enviro Nazi’s a simple question: So, According to scientist it’s commonly accept that the world has at least five ice ages. If that’s so, we must of had at least 5 warming periods right. So, what caused the previous warmings?: Mammoth farts instead of cow farts?

Eco-anxiety resulting from a fraudulent belief that trace amounts of CO2 trap heat in the atmosphere from an invisible, unmeasured, unobserved Greenhouse Effect.
