> Gen Z seem to take "YOLO" seriously from a young age. [...] and their actions, if not their words, are saying "not my problem, you'll figure it out when I'm gone".

Can you blame them? Boomers are saying the exact same thing while treating CO2 emissions like they're the main ingredient of a goddamned Werther's Original. Living here is only going to get harder as Gen Z gets older. "Fuck it, enjoy it while it's good" is a rational sentiment when you're born into an ongoing catastrophe that is actively being made worse.
