The Sydney Morning Herald has published an article which says that "Mental Illness Rise Linked to Climate. The article and the document it referenced are just ludicrous. It talks about the increase in brush fires and ignores the fact that the increase is do to the fact that people were setting the fires.
The article claims that climate change causes uncertainty and that uncertainty causes mental problems. Kids, this world has never been safe and we used to be much more at the mercy of the weather. Mental problems are increasing because people have convinced themselves that the world is supposed to be static when in fact it is not, never has been.
Be careful when reading things these fools write. The argument, in the end, is that if we allow our lives to become "safe" and live with restrictive and limited lifestyles that we can save the planet from change. Change is equated with bad, it is not bad it is just nature and nature loves diversity and change. It is folly to believe that we can control the planet.
