Change

After reading the articles from "The Guardian" I realized that I am no better than anyone else when it comes to making real steps towards change. The problem we are facing with climate change threatens the lives of billions of people around the Earth. Something that really struck me in Naomi's article "This Changes Everything" is that we must start treating climate as a crisis. Individual efforts aren't enough to reverse the amount of damage we have caused and no technology can come about to magically fix the problem either. Humanity's greatest weapon throughout history has been our ability to come together for the greater good of everyone. Like Naomi was saying it's not a crisis until we make it one. Leaders of the world have not viewed climate change as the true crisis it is. Naomi used slavery as a good example. Slavery wasn't a crisis until enough people rose up against it to make it one. The same must occur for climate change, together we have more power to create the change need to save us and our planet. People look away because they are afraid of change but it has become clear that the only way to prevent such a terrible future is to change everything. Innovate or die right?
