This strikes me as short-sighted and I think you're missing the point. The concern is that children don't care about nature in the first place.

You have to consider both causal directions: children don't know anything about nature because they don't care, or children don't care about nature because they don't know. This process is self-reinforcing.

The article gives no evedence that children are worse now than before. And to me it seems like absolute rubbish. The younger generation seem to care more about the environment than previous generations if anything.

The author seems to just not like the fact children like Pokemon and they don't.
