Are we in a state of fear?

I believe our world is definately in a "state of fear" when it comes to many things, not just global warming. The media is so quick to make a huge story out of something that could possibly not even be true or that big of a deal. Lets be real with ourselves, people love drama and gossip, no matter who you are and global warming is just another way for the government and media to grab the attention of of everyone and keep us in a constant fear. They use fear as a tactic when talking about global warming because without that emotion, no one would really care about it.
