The ISCFC is all about reducing our individual and collective contributions to climate change.
But is climate change really happening? Is it mostly caused by human activity, including our production of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases?
In the United States and elsewhere, there are people who are not convinced by the science. But the great thing about science is that we use evidence to evaluate scientific questions. So what is the evidence related to climate change?
Are you or are you not convinced by the majority of climate scientists who say that climate change is real and largely human caused? Why are you convinced/not convinced? What evidence might change your mind one way or the other?

Ways you can help to reduce climate change
There are many ways you can help reduce climate change without impacting your normal daily routine very much. One way is by carpooling or using public transportation to wherever you need to go. This is helpful because it reduces the number of vehicles on the road, which in turn decreases the emission of harmful pollutants. Another thing you can do is make sure you are sorting your trash into the correct bins, and maybe even start a compost! Waste sorting is important because it reduces the number of waste that ends up in the landfill and the environment. One last super easy thing you can do to help reduce climate change is to turn your lights off when you're not using them.
