There is a huge need for transition in how the government works and how it deals with environmental issues and the changes needed to fix these issues. There are many resources that we as people have access to that could potentially fix the issues, but we are either not exposed to the renewable sources because of the government lacks of wanting to change because of funding. However, there are some who have the knowledge they just feel as they are the inferior so they succumb to using the non-renewable resources that further damages the land. If people make the transition from being the extractive economy to the regenerative economy they are saving not only the land but in the long term they are saving energy, ecosystems, all living animals, and even themselves. The changes that we need to be moving into a positive direction starts and ends with every level of government complying and all citizens pleading for change.
I feel as though people can do a whole lot better than they are doing and that there is time to make the change, but the time is running out. I personally experience longer and hotter summers and shorter and colder winters sometimes warmer. The weather around me as I know it isn’t what it needs to be and I know people around feel it as well. We all recognize that change is needed but we fail to make the change and that is highly upsetting to me.
