- "Q :Is the earth really getting hotter?
- A : Yes. Although local temperatures fluctuate naturally, over the past 50 years the average global temperature has increased at the fastest rate in recorded history. And experts think the trend is accelerating: the 10 hottest years on record have all occurred since 1990. Scientists say that unless we curb global warming emissions, average U.S. temperatures could be 3 to 9 degrees higher by the end of the century."

Introduction to our war
Our world is in very bad shape. But you, me, everybody can change it. Everybody can make the difference.
We know that a two degrees warming of our planet would have a very bad
impact in our world. Two degrees are nothing. But it would change the
face of our world for ever. Nobody want it. Nobody want more wars, more
environmental refugees or more failed nations.
We have to fight against this huge problem. It is our generation's war !
The good point is, it is a safety war (for the moment). If we change our
mind soon, change our life, change all of this things, nobody will die.
But there is a very bad point too. It is hard for people to understand
that we have to fight for our future. It is not a war for our present.
Our future is engage.
Everybody should be aware of this and politicians first.
We don't want a two degree warming. We have to cute our emission levels by 40 percent...
Politicians power
Every politician in this world know about this problem.
They know that we have to fight. But unfortunately they do not want to accept it. They do not want to share it because it could have a bad impact of their future career. They are afraid about how they are famous.
But here is the point. If nobody share it, talk to our world about it,
nothing is going to change. This mean lots of problems. We need
brave people ! Powerful politician can make a big difference but they do
not want because they are scared.
Here is a deal. If politicians know that our population is ready to
change our mind, and act for our planet, they will act in the all world.
It is also hard for the politicians to ask people to give money and then
they will be able to act in their country but also in the poorer
country.
How to resolve this huge problem
Here is the most important thing.
We must not just aware about our (bad) situation. We have to give answer to our population. To create answer, we need money. But unfortunately it never rain money and nobody is happy to give his money, pay taxes.But it is the only way. Our money make the difference. We will have to share our money... it is hard to understand and accept but it is the reality. We have to give money to do two different thing :
- first we have to change our production system. Change how we make our products. Make it better for our environment. It might be like produce electricity with the sun or the wind... It might be produce more electric cars...
- Second we have to help poor country... We have to give money to increase their energy budgets to industrialize and pull themselves from poverty. Rich country who are most of the time the most developed country have to collect money and give it to the poorer country. This is the tricky point..
What we must do
First we have to pay taxes.
This money will go to the government who
will use it first to change our impact in the environment and then
change the poorer country's impact.
Second we have to change our mind and our way of life.
It is not hard to
use less water, use less plastic bags or thing like this. This war
start at everyone's house. Change our way of life will cost less money.
With this money, we can pay taxes and give our money for the global
warming.
We also have to aware people about this huge problem !
We also have to aware people about this huge problem !
Solutions
there are two categories of solutions :
- solutions for everybody. There are lots to do. Here are some example :
- pay taxes
- use less water
- use less plastic bags
- recycle
-
solutions for politicians. they have to change their country but also
the world. They have to collect money. your money. unfortunately a new tax should be create. with this money, we would make our production
more respectful for our environment. Then we would help the poorer
country to do the same.
