Something that many people are ignorant and indifferent to is politics. I, myself have never been interested in it, nor have I ever been concerned about it, even though it will affect my life even more as I get older. In governments, there are certainly some forms of corruption and injustice. When people are indifferent to politics and don't use their voices, this injustice will continue. However, when people use their voice, for example, learning about their countries' politics and voting, everyone who takes a stand will benefit.

One of the world's biggest problems is climate change, which also happens to be something many people are indifferent to. As the indifference continues, the state of the environment will worsen, as well as the well being of citizens all across the world. For example, in Pakistan, flooding caused by global warming affected 33 million people, with some losing their lives, and many more being displaced. We can help by using our voices to spread awareness of how we're treating to environment, and respond by taking action, improving the state of the world.

Sadly, many people are indifferent to their own mental health, as well as the mental health of others. Due to indifference, negligence, and stigma, people aren't speaking out enough about mental health, and enough awareness isn't being spread. Because of this, many people aren't getting the help they should with their mental health. It is extremely important to talk about your mental health regularly, as it will help the person struggling, as well as spreading awareness for the cause of other people.

Upon learning about indifference, I immediately thought of the bystander effect. The bystander effect is where people to offer help to someone while other people are present. People show less concern and are indifferent because they believe someone else will handle the situation. The problem with this is that the victim in the situation often doesn't receive any help at all. To solve this, it's important to speak up and take responsibility in helping those in need, regardless of who's also present.

Local Indifference

In the video about indifference, the speaker mentioned indifference towards people facing discrimination. For example, against their race or sexual orientation. This is an important topic, because discrimination is a very common issue that people are indifferent to in our communities, such as in schools. It's important to stand up for people being discriminated against, because spreading hate against peoples' differences should be unacceptable in our communities.

Another example of where people show indifference on a local scale is with safety within our communities. For example, people won't report criminal activity in their town, because they feel that since they aren't committing the crime, they aren't responsible. This allows criminals to keep committing unlawful acts, and the safety of more people will be put at risk. Speaking up and taking responsibility in your community is very important, as it will make your community a much safer place overall.
