We have only got 12 years!

by Rosa Domingos | 30-10-2018 16:25 recommendations 1

The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) have announced that we have 12 years to prevent and catastrophic environmental crisis. The report,Global Warming of 1.5¨¬C, released on October 8, 2018, explains where we are on the path to a disastrous 2¨¬C increase in temperature, also provides manners to which we can respond, and outlines the prospects for success. 

So without any further ado, I would like to invite you to test your knowledge of the path out of this carbon crisis.

    Hey Gyeongrin,

    I agree with what you said, the damages are slowly outweighing the time needed to restore the environment. And that people are unaware of the dire urgency with regards to it, but I am sure that with time, this will not be a matter to focus on.

    Hello Rosa
    It is true that the clock is ticking and our time is getting short.
    And the difficulty to recover the damage grows exponentially making it even harder to restore as time goes by.
    However, I too have felt that not everyone is aware of this issue and many think that this ain't their concern. But this is a responsibility that we all share and hope that more people could practice what we can in our daily activities!
    Thanks for the report :)
