The paper, prepared for the Climate Institute, says loss of social cohesion in the wake of severe weather events related to climate change could be linked to increased rates of anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress and substance abuse.

And they have succeeded in this, people will buy, vote for, and do anything the TV, or computer tells them to!
