We the people of the 21st Century, have no idea what we are heading into. Little do we realise that soon, no....really soon, we shall have no fossil fuels left to burn and that makes mot people shudder.
We have seen in the past that man has not regarded this planet as his own, but only an instrument to fulfill his own needs. Time and time again, he has mauled and bruised her. Now, she's hitting back and with vengence. Climate Change is inevitable and irriversable after a point.
That brings us to the question.....What is Climate Change?
"Climate change is any long-term change in the statistics of weather over durations ranging from decades to millions of years. It can be manifest in changes to averages, extremes, or other statistical measures, and may occur in a specific region or for the Earth as a whole."
Some parts of the climate system, such as the oceans and ice caps, respond slowly in reaction to climate forcing because of their large mass. Therefore, the climate system can take centuries or longer to fully respond to new external forcings.
The time to act is Today!
We look towards the Copenhagen conference with trusting eyes and hope; for thats all we have.
Our leaders need to understand this and learn...Quick.
