I would love to know which ywriters you are talking about.
Everything I write comes from hard science. The pandemic is not going to go away. It is not hard science that it will become weaker and weaker. Virologists from the World Health Organisation have said so several times.
Climate change does have the potential to make us extinct, but it's not only climate change, it's climate change and a dozen other factors which are colliding.
I finally realized the other day why people will spend a week debating Will Smith's slap, but can't figure out that driving a car, buying a mansion, and wearing denim jeans are contributing to cllmate change.
It's because you don't need to understand complex information to have an opinion about Will Smith. You do have to understand something of the science and the big picture to fully comprehend climate change.
It's not doomsday scrolling when I write things. it's an attempt at a wake-up call.
