The fact that 99% of societies problems can be blamed on capitalism.
Covid. I’ve read studies showing the cumulative effect that repeated infections have on the immune system, and it’s not good.
Many lower/smaller animals are going extinct. We only hear about the big majestic ones.
Insects. Reptiles. Amphibians. Birds. Fish.
All decreasing in numbers.
Monarch butterflies decreased by 90% in the last decade.
90%!
When is the last time you saw a frog outside just around?
When is the last time you saw a giant moth.?
Pesticides are largely to blame. Insects and the animals that eat them are declining fast. Faster than people are realizing. Runnoff of pesticides and fertilizers poison fresh water.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocene_extinction
The Holocene or Anthropocene extinction[3][4] is an ongoing extinction event caused by human activity during the current geological epoch,[5][6] impacting diverse families of plants[7][8][9] and animals, including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians,[10] fish, and invertebrates, as well as both terrestrial and marine species.[11] It is sometimes also called the sixth extinction[12][13][14][15] (though this can also describe the Capitanian[16]).
Gaza, The Takeover of Palestine, the constant attacks on Lebanon, the not so sudden spike and hostility of the, statistically, most psychotic “country” in the world
I second this. The fact that this is not discussed or brought up more often then it should is quite alarming. Even with the number of photo and video evidences and social media that are avaliable, there are people who cannot make a rational conclusion that something terribly wrong is happening at those places.
The abolition of boredom and what it’s doing to kids’ psyches.
People under appreciate how complex the life of animals is. I think people should pay attention to birds and animals around them more, they can amaze you sometimes.
And politically? Monopolies, and their lobbying. And not in a hypothetical sense. Look at samsung in south Korea and IndiGo flight incident recently in India, monopolies literally hold their Countries hostage and leaders look powerless against them.

The oil crisis. Soon there will be no oil left in a lot of countries. This is much worse than anyone thinks. Seems to be toned way down, because they all thought the war would be over in 2 weeks.
because they all thought the war would be over in 2 weeks.
Please don’t speak for the world. The only idiots who thought the Iran attack would be over in two weeks were in Washington.
And Tel Aviv.
The real thing with the oil crisis, is the lack of cheap oil look how we’re already strugling with petrol above 2 EUR a litter. Politicians need to to massive investment in low-carbon energy source and public transport, and eco-friendly building, because if not people won’t afford driving to work or heating their home.
We are using up the remaining supplies of cheap and readily available energy sources.
I’ve seen a lecture where somebody said that if you add one more zero on the end of your cumulated sum to you energy bill this will be your future bill.
This. And we are using remaining supplies of fertilizers as well (fossil sources of minerals) too, and pooping them into the rivers and oceans. So many one-way processes in our way of living.
