How to end the Climate Crisis

The problem is these people read the headline, caught the catch phrase but did not read the article. Global warming creates climate change, extreme climate and other natural phenomenon that results from a warming planet. This includes extreme cold as we experienced with the polar vortex. We are also in the early stage of climate change, although the effects are already very noticable. In a few degress, unless we act now, they will get worse and more extreme. Coastlines will be lost, food production and millions of jobs will be threatened and climate will be in many places unbearable.

We probably can survive it but it would a vastly different,and far less fair, beautiful and bountiful planet. And the point is, as we know all of this now, how can we with any kind of morality continue to doubt, deny and ignore it? The answer is we can’t and that we need to act.

The actions we need to take are about ten years overdue so anyone who doesn’t believe this is a crisis or leaders who refuse to act on it are obviously too stubborn or stupid to understand or too mired in politic pandering. Either way they are menaces to our world, way of life, and the survival and thrival of our planet and its species. We must have zero tolerance for inaction as time is running out.

To end this crisis, halt global warming and lessen its effects there are a few simple, affordable and necessary measures we all need to take. If we do, we can save and protect our planet. If we don’t we have no one to blame but those of us who voted against climate action, refused to believe the obvious truth and that will hardly be a satisfying conclusion if we don’t use our power and demand and take action ourselves.

Globally, America is still probably the worst in this regard, and China remains a growing climate threat, as is any coal dependant nation. Canada is pretty green except for its continued support and reliance on fossil fuels and meat exports. The EU with established Green party members are the best and emerging nations too are getting on board and taking action.

We can all end the global climate crisis by our votes, by protesting, and by our shopping and eating habits. Its an issue that’s equally important to all the populist issues we are all focused. Immigration, and the economy, the two driving forces of today’s electoral interest both are deeply affected by climate change. We ignore it at our own peril.

Please, also, don’t just read about climate action. Do all you can, begin now and help others to do the same. We won world wars, establish peaceful world order because everyone got on board and did their bit. Let’s rise to this challenge as the climate crisis is as big a threat as political ideology, terror and war to our planet, it’s people and our way of life.

Here are the steps we need to take to stop and keep climate change from progressing. They are simple and most countries and many people are already aware and doing and supporting these in full or part. Scientists say we have 11 years to change or the effects will beyond our ability to control. This means we must act now, collectively and individually and now.
