General Hospital fans express disgust about Brad and Britt's immaturity
The former doctor and lab tech reverted to their former childish selves to the dismay of viewers.
Brad and Britt are irritating GH fans
General Hospital viewers are expressing their displeasure on social media about the recent change in Britt Wesbourne (Kelly Thiebaud). As soon as she and Brad Cooper (Parry Shen) laid eyes on each other again, the immaturity began.
GH fans are disgusted that Brad and Britt ran up a $2000 restaurant bill, with each believing the other was paying. Neither had any money so they did a dine and dash.
They ran back to her apartment over the diner and laughed like teenagers who got away with something. Fans say Britt is too immature for Jason Morgan (Steve Burton), and they believe the writers will break up the union before they become an official couple.
Britt also got drunk and kissed Cody Bell while Jason was watching. Her behavior is not becoming for a doctor or a woman her age. Brad is no better for having allowed a new boyfriend to run through the millions Drew Cain (Cameron Mathison) gave him.
Will Brad ever change?
Brad is back in Port Charles in need of a job and somewhere to stay. Carly Corinthos (Laura Wright) is not going to allow him in her diner, and Jason does not want him around either.
Brad's return has shifted things and brought out Britt's bad side as she is trying to regain her medical license. If there is a method to this madness, GH viewers don't see it.
Some fans had thought Brad might work for his aunt Selina Wu (Lydia Look), but it's clear he is not up to the task. He no longer has blackmail leverage, and General Hospital probably will not hire him back as a lab tech.
Should Britt be reinstated as a doctor?
Some who watch the ABC soap were hoping Britt would return to the hospital staff, and exhibit maturity from all she has been through. Instead, she continues to keep secrets and lies and is like a child around Brad.
Britt has jeopardized her relationship with Jason and may not be rehired as a doctor. No one wants to see a rehash of the past with Brad and his bestie getting on everyone's nerves.
Unless there is a change, or Brad and Britt can stay away from each other, these characters may be doomed. Their current behavior might lead to both of them exiting Port Charles as quickly as they returned.
Brad, being unable to find a job, and Britt's shaky future do not bode well for either of them. A possible saving grace might be if Brad learns about Marco Ri0os ( Adrian Anachondo) and his illegal dealings.
Will these two eventually grow up?
Brad will naturally try to warn Lucas Jones (Van Hasin), but he will not initially believe him. There will be a lot of fallout before Jens Sidwell (Carlo Rota) is taken down and his son revealed as his accomplice.
In the meantime, Britt has some growing up to do if she desires to get her job back and obtain a chance with Jason. One way Dr. Westbourne and Stone Cold might make it is to agree on a truce.
If she can accept hsi relationship with Carly Spencer (Laura Wright) and acknowledge that Brad will be in her life, perhaps they can move forward. Still, there is much that is unknown about what Britt was doing while she was away and her current connection to Sidwell.
. Hopefully the writers plan to turn thsi around. If not there will be disgruntled fans. Stay tuned to General Hospital to learn how all of this plays out for Mr. Cooper and Doctor Westbourne.

We Can’t Innovate Our Way Out of the Climate Crisis: Facing the Truth of the Climate Emergency
As the climate crisis intensifies, discussions around its solutions often revolve around technological innovation and the promise of futuristic inventions. From carbon capture technology to electric vehicles and geoengineering, the narrative has become dominated by the belief that if we develop enough innovations, we will be able to reverse or mitigate the worst effects of climate change. However, this perspective, while not without merit, fundamentally overlooks the urgent need for systemic change, behavioral shifts, and most importantly, the reduction of carbon emissions at an immediate and drastic scale. In other words, we can’t innovate our way out of the climate crisis. The Illusion of Technological Salvation Over the past decades, we have seen a technological revolution in multiple sectors — from solar power and wind energy to electric cars and high-efficiency batteries. These innovations have shown significant promise in reducing emissions and making energy use more sustainable. However, despite these advances, we are still experiencing an unprecedented rise in global temperatures, extreme weather events, and biodiversity loss. Technological solutions such as carbon capture, biofuels, and geoengineering have been proposed as “fixes” for climate change, but they are often viewed as silver bullets — too little, too late. While they may be important in reducing carbon emissions in certain sectors, they do not tackle the root cause: the ongoing and unchecked burning of fossil fuels. Carbon capture, for example, is still in its early stages and has not been deployed at the scale necessary to address the crisis. It is also expensive, and its feasibility is questioned by many experts. Similarly, biofuels made from agricultural crops require land, water, and energy inputs that might create more environmental problems than they solve. These technologies have their place in the broader context of climate action, but they cannot and should not be seen as the only solutions. The Need for Radical Systemic Change The truth is that, while technological advancements are necessary, they are not enough. The climate crisis demands systemic changes that go beyond “green” technology. It requires rethinking how we produce, consume, and live. For example, the way our economic system is structured — one that prioritizes profit over people and the planet — needs to be fundamentally challenged. Our fossil-fuel-dependent growth model is simply not sustainable. We need to focus on reducing consumption, particularly in wealthy countries where overconsumption is a significant driver of global emissions. In developed nations, people use far more resources per capita than those in developing countries, and this disparity contributes to the unsustainable nature of global economic systems. By addressing the issues of overconsumption and waste, we would directly curb the demand for fossil fuels. At the same time, climate justice must be at the forefront of the conversation. Vulnerable communities in the Global South, who have contributed the least to the crisis, are bearing the brunt of its effects. The transition to a green economy must prioritize those who are most affected and ensure equitable access to resources. A Cultural Shift Is Necessary What is also crucial is a cultural shift. Climate change is not only an environmental issue but a cultural and societal one. If we keep reinforcing the notion that technological solutions will save us, we risk missing the larger and more important conversation: the need to change our behaviors. Consumption habits, transportation patterns, and food choices — everything we do must be reconsidered if we are to meaningfully reduce our carbon footprint. This is not to say we shouldn’t innovate; rather, it’s about recognizing that innovation must be a part of a holistic approach. Technological breakthroughs are important, but they must be coupled with policy changes, behavioral shifts, and stronger accountability mechanisms. For example, the expansion of public transportation or the promotion of plant-based diets could reduce the need for carbon-intensive activities, which is just as critical as advancing electric vehicles. The Role of Governments and Policy Change Perhaps the most important piece of the puzzle is policy change. Governments around the world need to enact bold, binding climate policies that curb emissions, promote sustainability, and prioritize environmental health. This includes imposing carbon taxes, eliminating subsidies for fossil fuels, and investing in green infrastructure. However, it also requires regulating industries that contribute significantly to emissions, such as the agricultural sector, which is responsible for a large proportion of global methane emissions, or the fashion industry, one of the largest polluting sectors worldwide. Moreover, governments need to foster international cooperation. The climate crisis is not limited by national borders, and while some countries are already taking steps toward sustainable practices, many are still lagging behind. Global solidarity and binding international agreements such as the Paris Agreement are essential for pushing all nations, especially high-emission ones, to take immediate action. Conclusion: The Time to Act is Now We are living in an age of climate emergencies — heatwaves, wildfires, flooding, and droughts are no longer anomalies but recurring events. The technology to mitigate climate change is important, but it cannot be seen as the only answer. Without deep structural reforms, shifts in consumption patterns, and radical policy action, no amount of innovation will be enough to save the planet. Ultimately, the world cannot afford to wait for a technological fix. We need to act now, embracing a multifaceted approach to tackle the climate crisis head-on. If we truly want a sustainable future, we must recognize that changing our behaviors, systems, and policies is just as essential as new technologies. The time for action is now — and it requires all of us.
