Do you believe in climate change?
Thirsty crow died and hare never find the tortoise, do you know why?
There once was a town where all life seemed to live in harmony with its surroundings. With the voices of birds, music to ears, and the howling of a wolf in the full moon of night. Then a strange blight crept over the area and everything changed. The once milky streams are now filled with dirty water. The birds, where have they gone? The wolves never came out of their homes. The hens brooded on the farms but no chick hatched. The laden fruit trees now swayed by a whistle. In the race between hare and tortoise, no one won. Because, while the hare was resting in the forest, a wildfire started on its own and took the hare's life. and the tortoise, instead of its consistency and steadiness couldn’t reach the finish line and lost the race to the wildfire. That thirsty crow died of thirst because the pebbles that he threw in the pitcher were stones of coal, that soaked up the water which was left in there.
this is how the stories of our children and grandchildren would look alike if the climate disaster weren't controlled.
but
How could humans have done such a great disaster in such little time?
How climate catastrophes have become life-threatening to our ecosystem, including humans?
Is there anything I can do to save that thirsty crow and the main characters of the stories, including humans?
What are the threats posed by climate change to mankind?
It is clear that climate change posed tangible threats to mankind these are: existential , political, and economical. Together these all threats can limit or totally eliminate human activity.
Scientist has consensus over the fact that earth is hotter than before and these were the coolest summers you will ever have. Can you imagine the coolest summer is the one you are living right now? Is it cooler? And if i could whisper in your ear the cause of the hottest summer is “IT’S YOU”.
From massive flooding to rising sea level, lower agriculture yield to unburnable carbon, and from mass migration to depletion of resources, climate change has its impact on all phases of life.
However, technological innovation , specifically clean energy can help to solve the crisis. Moreover, better business models and political aspects can become enzyme to this reaction. To our luck, many companies, states, innovators, and international bodies are already implementing the solutions.
Why I believe in climate change and why should you too?
Have you seen a person with severe illness such as cancer, do you know how cancer works?
let me tell you , cancer spreads slowly and silently. You can deny the fact that you have cancer all day but it will be there spreading without any alarm.
Now it is up to you if you are going to cure that little part which have cancer or you are going to ignore it till it spread to your whole body and make you incurable.
Climate change is a cancer to our earth and the hottest summer is just a little alarm, so what you are going to do is up to you. You can ignore the cancer or you can go for early checkup. Whatever you do , just don’t let the nature die.
