Today, the climate change and environmental disasters have been boiled down to politics and alignments within politics. Regardless of your political opinions, it's necessary that both politicians and supporters understand that this is bigger than any dividing lines. We _ALL_  have to work together to fix this problem and we can't (shouldn't) let these divisions spread to something like the condition of the climate.

I think that we need to take climate change out of the politicians hands and start to try and deal with some of it on our own. Like if we all went out and bought an electric car that’s already a step forward. What we really need to do is just take action and not sit and wait for Washington to make a decision because if we do that by the time they make a decision our planet will already be dead.

I agree with these observations but we also need to make these points well known to other people. So many people don't even know what is happening in our climate. Before we can move on. People need to know the implications of their actions.

I agree with your statement about working together to fix the problem of climate change. However, the border separating the truth of climate change and politicians in power is ignorance (I know this is getting subjective now). As citizens, we must do our part to lower our carbon footprint individually, however, we cannot expect everyone to pitch in as one cannot really change someone's belief in climate change (or beliefs at all). It would be amazing to get everyone to change their ways to eradicate climate change, but the sad truth is, some people fail to recognize climate change through sheer ignorance, or just not knowing at all.
