"Generation Z and the transformation of American adolescence: how How Gen Z's formative experiences shape its politics, priorities, and future."
They don't define "Generation Z", but it's generally taken to mean people born between about the late 1990s and the early 2010s. People who would be children of Gen X.
This article has a compendium of statistics on Gen Z and how Gen Z differers from millennials and older generations: religious service attendance, part time jobs, having a boyfriend/girlfriend as a teen, bullying, drug & alcohol use, time with friends and social media, loneliness, video games, parental influence on education, finding a career, political polarization and gender divide, distrust of political leaders, LGBT identification, gender discrimination.
Hmm... A Sunday reverie - for some who were there, are there, or nearly there...

A new vision for #global #water #conservation is here. One #wild-river has won. The #waterway will be #conserved as a #living, #free-flowing river, for the benefit of #people and #nature. Which rivers are next?
Is Gen Z 'quiet quitting'? Hypothesis presented is businesses have long expected people to go "above and beyond", in other words to do more work than they are paid for, and with each generation the motivation to comply has decreased. Presents data that support for unions has gone up.

#ElizabethWathuti at COP26: "Please open your hearts"
'Today’s #young #people are coming of age just as the #stable #climate that has allowed #previous #generations to #thrive on our #planet begins to visibly #break #down—and just before our last chance to stop it falls out of reach. #Leaders keep #praising young people for standing up and #protesting. But #saving the #world needs #decisions from the leaders. Decisions that #prioritize the #lives of the #people and the planet.'

‘ #Firenados in northern #California. #Ocean #fires in the #GulfofMexico. #Subway #waterfalls in #NewYorkCity. A #heat #dome in the #Northwest #melting #power #cables, killing hundreds and #frying #marine #animals. I have been told that combatting #climatechange is #expensive. Compared to what?’
‘If we do not act #boldly and #radically to combat the #climate #crisis, and significantly invest in #transforming our #energy #systems now, #future #generations will never #forgive us.’
