[Singapore] - Environmentally-conscious youths become depressed and suicidal over climate change

[UltimaOnline]

SINGAPORE - When a massive iceberg broke off from the Larsen C ice shelf in Antarctica in 2017 - an unmistakable sign of global warming - Mr Aidan Mock, reading the news some 9,400km away in Singapore, was seized by a deep grief, and even became suicidal.

The 26-year-old says: "For some reason, that geologic event, which seemed very irreversible, really affected me. It was not something we can humanly intervene upon anymore. It was a moment where I understood and struggled to accept the irreversibility of the predicament we are in with climate change."

They can kill themselves to save some carbon footprint if they are serious.

They should probably kill themselves, so as to relieve Mother Gaia the burden of their carbon emissions.

I have a sneaky feeling they're teaching anti-carbon climate alarmism to kids in schools these days, at the behest of the UN and other 'sustainability' activists. Back in the day, the only similar encounter with environmentalism in school for me was the 'Reduce, Reuse, Recycle' frog.

If they truly care about the environment they should extinguish themselves to reduce their footprint.

The guy is a suicidal loser to begin with. He just wants an excuse to off himself, and let everyone thinks he is 伟大.

Climate change ? Every day the weather change from hot to cold and cold to hot.
