I do worry that after years of headlines like this one, people might scroll past and miss how significant this situation is.

I notice that with myself. Not so much as not knowing how things are bad but more like - getting blurred ihto the background of bad with other, more recent bad coming to focus. I think it's a normal effect of the limited time and mental capacity we have so you're right to worry about it. I saw an interview with Greta and Zach Polanski where she was talking about the constamt flood of fires that burns out people who care. Feels like a related process.
