Climate change for beginners

The effects of climate change are ready noticeable in every part of the world and it will increase further. These changes have serious risk for our life. Climate change can jeopardize our life because it’s impact to water supply, food production, health and the potential trigger to social and also economic crises. It may have catastrophic results. This is not a new thing since the greenhouse gases and global warming issues have become the number one threat for everyone on the world nowadays

It is proven that a rise of CO2 leads to global warming. The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is increasing because of emissions caused by human. The CO2 concentration has risen to 390 ppm. And that’s why we need to keep it below 350 ppm. We cant stop the warming effects of greenhouse gases but the least we can do is reducing the effects so we will have more time to fix what we’ve done to the earth.

The negative effects of global warming would impose to humankind. The consequences are the rising sea levels because of the melted ice due to the warmer weather; extremes weather events such as floods, storms, extreme rain falls and heat waves; loss of flora and fauna; the spread of infectious diseases increased and economic social changes.



Further action needs to focus on the impact of climate change on humankind, as well as on reducing the impacts of human activity on climate change. This should include developing the potential alternatives of energy, sustainable development in farming and agriculture, taking precautionary approaches and legally binding global policy that should encourage every country to take actions and responsibility towards climate change. We need to be united in this effort because the potential dangers of climate change are too great to ignore. It is time we put together all our resources to prevent more impact humankind. It is what the world leaders should agreed on in Copenhagen because survival is not negotiable. But it is not going to be that easy. In the end, it is always about money. There are too many ideas and just a few implementations because none wants to take responsibility without getting something back. The delegates are pointing at each other about who’s to blame and who have to be responsible. It is just going to be another deadlock. It is going to be another framework and no legally binding global policy. Bla bla bla and BLAH. But I am hoping for the best because everything starts with a plan and a dream. At least, I have one thing in common with John Lennon. We’re both a dreamer and I know we’re not the only two here.
