M12.9 Blog: Climate Change


I think what I find most troubling about climate change is global warming and the issue of the earth getting warmer and warmer as the years go by. I think we need to focus more on what global warming is and what we are doing to affect it. I think we need to address this issue with our government as well and implement policies that will help our planet. I think it also needs the greatest attention with our government. We need to start to fund research for global warming as well. It’s sad sometimes that we do not address this issue at hand and we need to force many leaders to help. I think we must make leaders aware that we global warming not only affects the environment but also us as organisms.

I would explain it to a relative by asking them what normal things they do. Many normal things like air conditioning emission lead to the rising of  global warming. Also, I would ask them if they like the heat and if it is something they find bearable to live in. Many people do not appreciate the heat and would like us to limit heat, so I would explain it to my relatives that heat is a problem and show them the statistics of global warming.

  1. Hi Snay,

    I agree with you that we need to engage our leaders more on the conversation of climate change. In my post, I suggest the development of policies targeting climate change. Do you have any particular recommendations on how best to engage leaders?

    In addition, I like your approach on the way you would talk about climate change with your relatives. I think having a discussion where you talk about everyday activities we all engage in and making the connection to climate change makes it more relatable and possibly easier to understand.

  2. Hi Snay,
    Thank you for your post, I agree with you and Nalleli that policy change and environmental activism is needed. I also like your approach of teaching climate change, you bring up a great point simple conversation is a start to understanding climate change and that conversation leads to personal changes, which could then lead to large changes in the community and so on.
