There's something to be said about choosing not to care about some stuff, though. Being constantly contemplating every single crisis in the world and worrying equally about them all will be damaging to your mental health... And these days there are more pressing issues than the moths to me. It's not that I don't value them

Ironically being in nature has helped with many peoples’ mental health and some recognised this and started protecting local biodiversity as a response by taking action locally and giving back and being thankful. The attitude to not care is not helpful.
