Do you suffer from climate anxiety? A new survey suggests that you might find yourself increasingly alone. Apparently, the constant fear-mongering isn’t working too well anymore.

When 2,230 American adults last month were given a list of issues and asked to judge their importance, “climate change” scored near the bottom, with only 45 percent considering it “very important”, alongside “issues of race and diversity” at 40 percent.

Compare that with the list-toppers: the economy (82 percent), inflation (79 percent), and crime (65 percent), according to the poll conducted last month. When real problems arise, fake ones tend to fade.

Voters told the group conducting the poll that they didn’t see any difference between the climate change policies of Joe Biden and Donald Trump, and more than half of them said that regardless of whether Biden or Trump is re-elected in November, the winner’s policies won’t make any difference at all on climate change.

When specifically asked about which of Biden’s environment-related policies they support, the only ones considered favorable involved tax rebates – because who’s going to say no to the government taking less of your money – and also “more regulations to reduce toxic chemicals in drinking water.” A whopping 70 percent of people voted for that one. Poisoning prevention was the most popular policy initiative of the whole survey — a measure that has nothing at all to do with climate change. But concrete environmental policies with measurable results are no fun for governments because they involve the risk of accountability.

There are worse things than uselessness, though. For instance, there could be a federal carbon tax, like Canada’s Liberal Party Prime Minister Justin Trudeau foisted upon Canadians, and which has contributed to massive inflation as the tax is factored into every part of the supply chain. The European Union has a similar tax, but the elites in charge are messing everything up right now at such a breakneck pace, including imposing sanctions that effectively cut themselves off from their own cheap Russian gas supply — that it’s hard for Europeans to pinpoint specifically which of the many policy errors is actually responsible for anything anymore.

The U.S. government, by contrast, seems to be in on the joke and isn’t overly keen on driving its own economy to ruin over climate change. Quite the opposite, in fact. The U.S., apparently, sees a whole world rife with suckers. Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act was presented as a climate initiative, but it really just serves to lure foreign “green” companies to the U.S. The U.S. doesn’t have a carbon tax, but rather just tax credits for companies that “capture” or “sequester” the carbon.

Judging by the poll, much of the American public is getting wise to climate change nonsense, as well, which is rather remarkable considering the incessant global propaganda.

“Eco-anxiety” is real, according to the American Psychological Association. Defined as “chronic fear of environmental doom,” it’s a wonder that the affliction hasn’t been included on the disabilities disclosure list for job applications. The fear can come from direct experience of “extreme weather events,” according to the Mental Health Commission of Canada — a country whose extreme weather events were previously just considered an integral part of its national identity.

Climate change propaganda is just like one big advertisement for self-indulgence. And thanks to western governments’ own actions, that’s now become something that most can no longer afford.
