The real threat to HUMANITY

Some people still refuse to admit that climate change is here, instead they go on a tangent about how the weather has always been unpredictable. That may be true but they have to understand the distinction between weather and climate. Weather is the day to day occurrence where as climate is the average occurrence. For example the average temperature, rainfall, storms etc, and we can all see they have increased over the last decade and even though it may not be directly effecting some people others are finding it hard to cope with.


Low lying countries like Bangladesh and European cities like Venice may soon disappear under the rising seas. Over the past few years there have been earthquakes in Rome and flooding in Florence and even in Turin. So you see people. it is not just the poor Asian countries that are being affected. Even the US, which is currently dealing with Hurricane Harvey. The more the ocean warn the stronger and more devastating these storms will be, and eventually even you ( the affluent West) wont be able to deal with it.

The general public are so concerned with issues such as migrants and terrorism because they are always plastered on newspapers and are on our screens 24/7- where is the coverage for the one issue that effects everything??!

The Governments of the world need to act quickly if we are to avoid catastrophe!
