Jim, I'll guarantee you the vast majority of young people are not that scared of climate change. Certainly no more than are terrified of illegals raping them.
Doing something about climate change does not entail living in a yurt, or getting windmill cancer. It's all incremental and you are doing some conservation with solar panels, a Leaf and you probably have some of those awful LED bulbs that do or don't make Trump look orange. I'm sure there are other things you could do without horribly changing your lifestyle.
If you are like most Americans, a little lifestyle change would probably enable you to live longer, healthier and wealthier.
We are the fattest major country in the world, consume the most energy per person of any large country and rank pretty far down for life expectancy.
But your head is stuck in the sand, that's the difference.
