A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

I think you are letting propaganda freak you out. Climate change isn't going to kill us all tomorrow. Even if it becomes some how majority disastrous it is unlikely to wipe out all humans. We need to think about the future and get our heads out of the sand.

Just to be clear, you definitely shouldn't be worrying about climate change or any other overly hyped up issue. Your life is short and all you can do is be the best person you can. If you care about the environment go do so.e good for the world. Don't spend time worrying.
