Hi, yes, this is a subtweet: if you are approaching covering the climate crisis with extreme pessimism/fatalism (especially from yt people) you're doing it wrong, you're missing the biggest stories, and, frankly, it's irresponsible.
There are thousands of young people in the country who are leading a climate movement that is driven by hope, compassion and a vision for of a more equitable future. Here's just one story: https://www.texasobserver.org/green-new-deal-chante-davis/
There are Southerners who are organizing in the heart of hurricane territory to build a better, less polluting future: https://www.texasobserver.org/why-the-south-is-organizing-its-own-green-new-deal/
There are faith based communities that are organizing and winning important environmental protections: https://southerlymag.org/2020/11/13/how-faith-leaders-organized-to-win-two-major-environmental-victories-in-louisiana/
