There's one crisis in this set that's real and we're doing way too little about it (climate crisis). Probably the biggest harm from short term panickng about these smaller things is taking away attention from it.
Exactly! Short-term panicking is the worst thing to do.
I definitely think the climate change is man-made. I also think it is impossible to realy predict its environmental, ecological and social consequences on a global scale.
By listening to those, who try to nudge us into panic mode, we neglect calm long-term strategies that would improve our lives over time.
Imho, this applies to every "immediate threats" that are regulary propagated by (social) media.
