Before it's all in vain...


The recent Global Climate Strike is a reminder about how much the problem of Climate Change is affecting the people of the future, but unfortunately that's not enough, because until unless the governments and big leaders form a resolve to try and implement the methods to control it, everything is and will continue to go in vain. The devastating fact is that, climate strike is no longer just an "environmental" issue, people are suffering, animals and plants are losing their very existence, islands are vanishing and if the heat continued to warm at the same pace, one day the world as we know it will demolish and there will be no one to counteract the problem or implement the methods. Felíquan Charlemagne, 17, stated in an interview with the Verge, "Whatever policies come out of the strike and the UN climate events, these solutions need to be based off of the actual science, having a target of net zero emissions by 2030, and need to be bold and as big as the crisis we’re fighting. These policies need to recognize the importance of reinvesting in front-line communities that have been disproportionately affected by the climate crisis. These solutions need to hold those at the top responsible for what they have caused, and invest in the working classes of the world."  The crucial point to focus on at this moment is, that the leaders listen to all these voices and "IMPLEMENT" on that! Because sitting and talking time is over and it's action time now! And if we don't do anything sooner the whole world will face more severe consequences than it ALREADY IS! The one thing I actually want to witness in this orthodox chattering world is to see tangible, long-term solutions that properly address the root causes of the climate crisis. Otherwise we all will be here facing the brunt of the climate crisis when power is looking to escape and propagate false solutions.

Already it is obvious that our earth is facing a crisis with climate change but what can we do as humans? A simple solution would be to reduce our carbon footprint but how? Thankfully, Project Change is here and listed below are some ways we all can reduce our carbon footprint. 1. Stop eating (or eat less) meat By not eating or eating less meat, it will make a big contribution towards reducing the amount of greenhouse gas being released. Already agribusinesses release more greenhouse gases than fossil fuels. Research has shown that by reducing our meat intake, greenhouse gas emissions can be effectively reduced with red meat being the biggest culprit. Below you can see the different amount of carbon being released by meat-eaters and vegans with vegans releasing the least amount of carbon due to the fact that they don't eat meat/animal products.  2. Unplug your devices It's obvious that fossil fuels create energy when being burned, as a result, this releases ca...
