In
this article, the extent of climate change is covered. The article discusses
how we should measure
climate
change and that the amount of damage that it has done to our environment and
cities.
It shows that the amount of damage done by climate change
will be in the millions, However, if we reduce the amounts of greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere then we will be able to reduce the amount
of
money needed to renew the environment. What I found interesting from this
article was that we
produce
so much pollution but just by doing little things for a short amount of time we
could save so
much
money, yet no one has taken control and done anything yet. In this article, I
agree with the fact
that
we need to reduce pollution and emission, but I think that we should find a way
to do that without reducing
our economy. After this article, I still would like to know how we could help
our environment and
still benefit our economy. I believe this relates to what we have been talking
about in our class because
there is always a price to pay for doing something wrong and we did something
wrong when we
decided to use fossil fuels. The effect of this is that we are literally going
to pay the price.
