Warm weather.. not such a good thing
We're in the Endgame now...
I'm sorry to disappoint you all but this is not about the Avengers movie, it is actually about something much more serious and urgent..CLIMATE CHANGE. I have written about this subject so many times I may end up repeating some things, but just because you've heard them before doesn't mean you should dismiss it.. it's actually the opposite it's all that more urgent!
It baffles me that in this country ( the UK) there are still some people who question that it is here and that we have to do something, people are actually still debating it?!!! And this is largely due to the fact that the right wing media rules this country.
People are guilty of not understanding what climate change is, they often confuse it with the daily weather. The weather is how it is day to day climate on the other hand is the average temperature the average rainfall and storms etc, and anyone who is paying any attention knows that what was considered extreme weather has started to become the norm.
The other argument people usually spit out is that the climate has always gone though changes and even if that's true, the speed at which it is shifting is not giving us and the creatures and plants of the world enough time to adapt. Just look at the storms that have ravaged Puerto Rico and basically destroyed the Bahamas, If the politicians don't care about the human life that is being lost just think about the financial damage, the sheer cost of rebuilding the infrastructure is ASTRONOMICAL.
In the UK and across much of Europe we have had the hottest summer on record and there are still some idiots out here who think getting warmer weather is a good thing it's not! People actually died because of the heat and not just people but food crops, But the media in this country won't report on those facts or if they do it will be full of so called "counter points" to create confusion.
The people have to educate themselves and demand more from the so called leaders. All this out rage about plastic straws ( which is an issue) but let's not forget how this country has adopted Fracking from the US, which is highly dangerous and devastating to the environment and the little fact that the government has decided to build another runway at Heathrow. This country is so far behind in the environmental movement and it comes down to sheer ignorance, People are more concerned with show like The Great British Bake Off and The Kardashians than what will affect their children and grandchildren.
People have to act before it turn into run away climate change. We all need to be like Greta!
