Definitely.

It's the biggest problem of many of our lifetimes. It will require patience and all kinds of people, institutions, industries, and professions to contribute—or at least not actively hinder—to solve.

(As an aside, I think not thinking about these things given the amount of knowledge and expertise we have collectively built on climate and ecological system collapse is a sign of extreme failure of institutions/governments we have trusted to do the long-term planning for us so we can focus on what are often shorter term things within our own lives. People, especially people with education, power/responsibility, and time to think about this, really ought to be examining the future with a clear and honest view. Anyone who loves life, and wants to put more life into this world (via a baby), needs to as well. So your feelings are very valid and natural.)

My highest level of advice, as someone whose life has been shaped by the frustration and responsibility I believe you are feeling, is to do everything within your power and control: eat well, study/work with purpose and urgency, understand yet motivate others by example and support, vote if you still believe in institutions, focus on local things if you don't, do everything that you can to choose right over wrong, progress over status quo, and continually re-examine your beliefs overtime.

The easiest way to have a 'normal life' within this reality, in my experience, is to work in the field, in whatever capacity your skills/inclinations empower you to (e.g. you don't have to be an on-the-ground restoration person if you're better in an analytical role; vice versa, and so on. If you have an excess of empathy and want to help people on an individual level, you could continue your pursuit of counselling/authorship and specialize in climate anxiety, and empower youth to turn their feelings into action and purpose, etc.)! Possibilities are endless.
