"content": "\u003cp>Do you feel a special connection with a famous person? You might be in a parasocial relationship. Parasocial relationships are one-sided relationships between a media viewer and someone famous like an actor, musician, athlete, or influencer. Parasocial relationships can have benefits. For example, hearing about an athlete’s struggle with depression might inspire fans to address their own mental health concerns. On the other hand, parasocial relationships are one-sided by definition. This can cause problems, especially if they take the place of real-life relationships.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cb>TEACHERS\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Bring \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Above the Noise\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> into your middle or high school classroom with free lesson plans, viewing guide, transcripts and more for all episodes on \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://ca.pbslearningmedia.org/collection/above-the-noise-collection/\">\u003cb>PBS Learning Media\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why do some people form parasocial relationships?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a few different ideas for why some people might form these bonds. One theory is called parasocial attachment theory, which suggests that forming parasocial relationships has a lot to do with your attachment style. Attachment styles describe how you relate to people and it’s thought to be influenced by how you bonded with your caregivers when you were young. People with avoidant attachment styles tend to not form these types of relationships, whereas people with more anxious and secure attachment styles tend to have a wider variety of parasocial relationships.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What are some benefits of parasocial relationships?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parasocial relationships can actually help motivate positive changes and well-being for some people. The tween and teen years in particular are a time when people tend to form parasocial relationships, and some research suggests those relationships can help with identity formation and autonomy. Some research has found that when celebrities share their mental health struggles, can motivate people to seek out information about mental health and make people feel like they are part of an in-group that might have similar struggles. Additionally, some research suggests that parasocial relationships can actually help decrease prejudice and stereotypes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What are some of the downsides of parasocial relationships?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parasocial relationships can be problematic if they interfere with or take the place of real-life relationships. For example, research has found that they can contribute to anxiety, loneliness, and social isolation, especially if they involve social media. And there’s research that suggests that intense parasocial relationships can be linked to addiction to social media platforms.

Parasocial relationships are one-sided relationships between a media viewer and someone famous like an actor, musician, athlete, or influencer. Parasocial relationships can have benefits. For example, hearing about an athlete’s struggle with depression might inspire fans to address their own mental health concerns. On the other hand, parasocial relationships are one-sided by definition. This can cause problems, especially if they take the place of real-life relationships.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\u003cb>TEACHERS\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Bring \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Above the Noise\u003c/span>\u003c/i>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> into your middle or high school classroom with free lesson plans, viewing guide, transcripts and more for all episodes on \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://ca.pbslearningmedia.org/collection/above-the-noise-collection/\">\u003cb>PBS Learning Media\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Why do some people form parasocial relationships?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a few different ideas for why some people might form these bonds. One theory is called parasocial attachment theory, which suggests that forming parasocial relationships has a lot to do with your attachment style. Attachment styles describe how you relate to people and it’s thought to be influenced by how you bonded with your caregivers when you were young. People with avoidant attachment styles tend to not form these types of relationships, whereas people with more anxious and secure attachment styles tend to have a wider variety of parasocial relationships.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What are some benefits of parasocial relationships?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Parasocial relationships can actually help motivate positive changes and well-being for some people. The tween and teen years in particular are a time when people tend to form parasocial relationships, and some research suggests those relationships can help with identity formation and autonomy. Some research has found that when celebrities share their mental health struggles, can motivate people to seek out information about mental health and make people feel like they are part of an in-group that might have similar struggles. Additionally, some research suggests that parasocial relationships can actually help decrease prejudice and stereotypes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For example, research has found that they can contribute to anxiety, loneliness, and social isolation, especially if they involve social media. And there’s research that suggests that intense parasocial relationships can be linked to addiction to social media platforms.

And all this releases tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, which is a problem because CO2 is a “greenhouse gas.” Greenhouse gases are molecules that trap heat in the atmosphere, which leads to an overall warming effect on the planet. CO2 isn’t the ONLY greenhouse gas, there’s methane, nitrous oxide, and some others in the mix. AND burning fossil fuels isn’t the only way greenhouse gasses are released into the atmosphere. But CO2 currently accounts for the greatest warming. And since the late 1800s when global average temperatures have increased by about 1 degree Celsius. Overall, this warming has a huge impact on the climate causing things like more severe droughts, water scarcity, wildfires, floods, melting of polar ice, and sea level rise. If we want to keep climate change from getting worse, we need to reduce our CO2 emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How much carbon dioxide do private jets emit?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A private jet can emit two metric tons of CO2 in just one hour. For comparison, the average car emits about 4.6 metric tons in an ENTIRE year! And private jet use is gaining in popularity. In 2021, there were over 3.3 million private flights. One report estimates that in 2016, private jets emitted about 33.7 million tons of CO2. For comparison, Denmark, a country with 5.5 million people emitted 27 million tons of CO2 in 2020. And private jets are five to 14 times MORE POLLUTING than commercial airlines on a per-passenger basis. When it comes to private jets there’s a disproportionate amount of CO2 coming from a very small group of people who can afford this luxury.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What to do about private jet pollution?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some people are calling for a straight-up ban on private jets, which is getting some traction in places in Europe. Since trains have a much lower carbon footprint, France has already banned commercial short-distance flights when there are train routes available. Others think we should heavily tax private aviation and use those taxes to invest in greener private jet technologies–which could help reduce the environmental impact of private jets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>SOURCE LIST\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Private Jets: Can the Super Rich Super Charge Zero-Emission Private Aviation? \u003c/b>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.transportenvironment.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/2021_05_private_jets_FINAL.pdf\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This article from Transport & Environment\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a nonprofit organization in Europe that studies sustainable transportation solutions, talks about the impact of very rich people on making private jets more environmentally friendly. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Climate Activists in at least 13 Countries Protest Private Jets \u003c/b>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/science/environment/climate-activists-least-13-countries-protest-private-jets-rcna56666\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This article from NBC News\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> talks about the protest against private jets happening globally. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>The Global Scale, Distribution and Growth of Aviation: Implications for Climate Change\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959378020307779#\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This scientific article\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> from the journal Global Environmental Change outlines research on the impact of air travel on climate change. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Climate Change And Flying\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ourworldindata.org/co2-emissions-from-aviation\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This report from Our World in Data\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> includes information, charts, and graphs about how air travel of all kinds affects climate change. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Climate Change in US Will Hurt Poor People The Most\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2018/11/26/climate-change-will-hurt-poor-people-the-most-federal-report.html\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This article from CNBC\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> shows that poor countries and communities will be hit hardest by climate change. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Many of the World’s Poorest Countries Are the Least Polluting but the Most Climate-Vulnerable.

And all this releases tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, which is a problem because CO2 is a “greenhouse gas.” Greenhouse gases are molecules that trap heat in the atmosphere, which leads to an overall warming effect on the planet. CO2 isn’t the ONLY greenhouse gas, there’s methane, nitrous oxide, and some others in the mix. AND burning fossil fuels isn’t the only way greenhouse gasses are released into the atmosphere. But CO2 currently accounts for the greatest warming. And since the late 1800s when global average temperatures have increased by about 1 degree Celsius. Overall, this warming has a huge impact on the climate causing things like more severe droughts, water scarcity, wildfires, floods, melting of polar ice, and sea level rise. If we want to keep climate change from getting worse, we need to reduce our CO2 emissions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How much carbon dioxide do private jets emit?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

For comparison, the average car emits about 4.6 metric tons in an ENTIRE year! And private jet use is gaining in popularity. In 2021, there were over 3.3 million private flights. One report estimates that in 2016, private jets emitted about 33.7 million tons of CO2. For comparison, Denmark, a country with 5.5 million people emitted 27 million tons of CO2 in 2020. And private jets are five to 14 times MORE POLLUTING than commercial airlines on a per-passenger basis. When it comes to private jets there’s a disproportionate amount of CO2 coming from a very small group of people who can afford this luxury.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What to do about private jet pollution?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some people are calling for a straight-up ban on private jets, which is getting some traction in places in Europe. Since trains have a much lower carbon footprint, France has already banned commercial short-distance flights when there are train routes available. Others think we should heavily tax private aviation and use those taxes to invest in greener private jet technologies–which could help reduce the environmental impact of private jets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>SOURCE LIST\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Private Jets: Can the Super Rich Super Charge Zero-Emission Private Aviation? \u003c/b>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.transportenvironment.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/2021_05_private_jets_FINAL.pdf\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This article from Transport & Environment\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a nonprofit organization in Europe that studies sustainable transportation solutions, talks about the impact of very rich people on making private jets more environmentally friendly. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Climate Activists in at least 13 Countries Protest Private Jets \u003c/b>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.nbcnews.com/science/environment/climate-activists-least-13-countries-protest-private-jets-rcna56666\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This article from NBC News\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> talks about the protest against private jets happening globally. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>The Global Scale, Distribution and Growth of Aviation: Implications for Climate Change\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0959378020307779#\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This scientific article\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> from the journal Global Environmental Change outlines research on the impact of air travel on climate change. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Climate Change And Flying\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ourworldindata.org/co2-emissions-from-aviation\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This report from Our World in Data\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> includes information, charts, and graphs about how air travel of all kinds affects climate change. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Climate Change in US Will Hurt Poor People The Most\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> \u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.cnbc.com/2018/11/26/climate-change-will-hurt-poor-people-the-most-federal-report.html\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">This article from CNBC\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> shows that poor countries and communities will be hit hardest by climate change. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cb>Many of the World’s Poorest Countries Are the Least Polluting but the Most Climate-Vulnerable.

It’s really expensive to run a political campaign, and one way that lobbyists can get facetime to talk to politicians is to throw big fundraisers for them, and lobbyists themselves can actually donate to political campaigns.

At its core, lobbying is just a way for citizens to engage with lawmakers on important issues. Most of the critiques around lobbying have to do with how money is involved. It’s really expensive to run a political campaign, and one way that lobbyists can get facetime to talk to politicians is to throw big fundraisers for them, and lobbyists themselves can actually donate to political campaigns. And most of the biggest spenders on lobbying represent business interests.
