People often say: "save the earth" . I think that is wrong. I don't want to talk down the ecological problems. I don't doubt the climate change. Global warming is a fact, but the earth does not need to be saved, nor does life on earth need to be saved. The earth has survived major catastrophes and it will survive climate change. It is not the earth that will have the problems, but the people. They will have great difficulty coping with climate change (e.g. water shortages). That is why I would say: save the people. #RandomThoughts

But people can be saved once we save the world.. It's all people's fault why we are having climate change.. The pollution, deforestation, garbage dumping everywhere, and other illegal acts, these affects the earth..thus putting the people in danger..
I wouldn't call that saving the earth next to it. The earth has been completely covered by snow before and then life came back. But we need the earth to live in the state it is now, so it is very stupid to change the climate on our own.
But we can reduce this crisis though.. But quite impossible due to this growing innovation that are affecting the environment
True that. If is all about the survival of future generations
thats what im saying for years yet people around me fail to understand. Earth was and will be here long after we are gone. But climate change is another thing. Earths climate constanly changes, hence we dont have much to do. Its like breathing, cold and hot ages slowly changing back and forth
I do think that humans have accelerated climate change. I just don't know how much.
maybe a few percents, but it does not really matter. change is inevitable
