Spitting these alarming and emotional speech to the media while chained himself at JP Morgan Chase building in Lost Angeles.
According to Kalmus, we have only few years to fix or stop government for doing such Using Fossil Fuels before we faced catastrophic events as consequences for this act.
The scientists protestors chose JP Morgan Chase bank due to the fact that, the bank is the top financer of Fossil Fuels production and known for worst fossil fuel bank in the world.

An hour later, the 100 police officers has arrived and arrested them for doing these things. See the images below:
In these past few month, there were group of scientists had been arrested for raising awareness about the possible outcome of continuous production of Fossil Fuels. And Peter Kalmus group is the latest.
Global Warming is indeed a serious problem that the government especially us that need to address to.
According to NASA, "Global warming is the long-term heating of Earth's climate system due to human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, which increases heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in Earth's atmosphere."
By observing your surroundings and our weather cycles as of the moment, we are now experiencing unusual weather cycles.
For instance, Philippines in every month of March to April, the country is supposed to be experiencing summer season which is not the same as now.
The alarming fact is instead of summer, the country is experiencing typhoons which is kinda obvious of a climate change effect.
