Cults and climate change don’t have an apparent connection, but sometimes our minds and experiences bring two unconnected things together.
Despite having a strong science background, most of my posts will be more of what is on my mind.

My masters program talked about one of the big EMF studies that was done years ago. It was a multimillion dollar study that pretty much just showed that blasting 5G at rats just warms them up. No magical cancer causing radiation.
RFK Jr recently announced he's going to use his position at the HHS to study electromagnetic radiation (as if it hasn't been studied).
Children's Health Defense just published this gem—though now I'm confused if it's EMF, glyphosate, red dye #3, or seed oils causing chronic diseases.

Many areas are seeing record snowfall this winter, thanks to global warming--or rather, global weirding!
How so?
It hasn't been cold enough for lakes other than Erie to completely ice over yet. As cold air sweeps across them, it's picking up moisture and dumping massive snowfall on the other side.

A bit of advice I heard from an audio book today: The best way to help someone going down dangerous ideology or in a cult is to provide the type of love they can’t get from those things.

one of the biggest and simplest ways to both do something, and FEEL like you’re doing something, is to find a small nonprofit with a cause you care about. donate, volunteer, join a board. offer pro bono skills if you have them (tech support, accounting, legal). help them fundraise. they need you
I think people feel exhausted in advance because we’ve trained ourselves to think marches and rallies are the only way to fight, when in fact there are much quieter, more effective, and less exhausting ways to fight - like not conceding in advance, and not panic-sharing stuff without vetting

One of the ways you can help protect public health in the US is to talk to your senators about not confirming Trumps’s cabinet picks. This email list provides info on what is going on and what you can do to protect public health.

I am considering that for at least in the USA, some efforts towards climate action might have to be redirected towards public health action.

Can anyone provide some insight on this?
Is there something to having a large portion of our society as being a cult?
When I look at the Evangelical Church, large portions of multiple right-wing movements, and chunks of popular media, it always pings my cult radar.

Always remember that if you feel powerless to change things at a national level, there is almost always local actions you can take to make the world better.
