Much of this is contrived. The previous generation said GenX were slackers too. It's just something to sell ads.
Of course another purpose of this "culture war," is to take the blame off the politicians who had a chance actually make the regulations and laws and lay it on a generation of citizens.
What has Generation Y and Z actually done to stop global warming? I don't see anything but talk. Does that mean Generation Y and Z doesn't care about global warming, or maybe it's back to the politicians who are in a position to pass regulations and laws.
Of course, politicians are elected by people so if everyone believes in global warming and votes that way everything will work out.
GenY and GenZ tend to vote for more pro-climate policies, many more of them protest for the government to do something. Many more of them on environmental conscience.
The big thing you seem to be missing is governments should be doing the will of the people, and the will is there for GenZ, but not for the Boomers.
I think the main thing you seem to be missing is that's not how it actually works. The will is there for the energy companies but not the people because energy companies pay for campaigns. Do you think boomers really want ridiculously high health care costs? At their age? Or perhaps it's the insurance companies and the AMA pushing that? Do you think people like paying tax preparation companies every year, even though the government knows what most people owe, or do you think the tax preparation industry pays for that inaction? Do you think people like getting arrested for smoking pot, or the politicians are maybe being influenced by the police and prison unions to keep that sweet, sweet paycheck coming?
When the politicians ignore the will of the people during the your generation, are you going to lay the blame on your generation as well? Will that mean your generation doesn't believe in global warming, or maybe it's something else?
You don't what generation I am in, it's not GenZ
Boomers caused the end of Vietnam because of protest, GenZ is trying to do the same with climate change.
If nothing is done about climate change, it is because the voters didn't vote this way, I don't think it will be because they don't know. It is quite publicized these days. But, if GenZ spends there whole life not doing something about climate change it will be there fault.
