The Millenium Development Goals, agreed to by every member country of the United Nations in 2000, call for the worldwide eradication of poverty and hunger, universal education, gender equality and huge improvements in health by 2015: two years ago!!
Can we do this without making the planet warmer?
Let's think big and imagine how we can confront the climate crisis in a way that is realistic about the other major problems that we face as a planet and as a species on it.

Cars
Many of our everyday items or normal sightings are producing deadly amounts of CO2. Things like our cars that we drive everyday to get to school are actually producing CO2. Now many people may be think that their one car can't make a difference. Well their right, but if they haven't noticed the traffic their constantly stuck then thats another problem. See the huge population in just America uses is absurd and when taking in all people and places the number is bearable. As a community we needed to make changes on how we drive and we to choose driving their own our own or taking public transit. Or even just taking a few others who were planning on going anyways is one of the many ways to help the environment even in the smallest way.
I agree with this post completely. You can't make a difference yourself you need to start a change and get other people to work on climate change with you. If it is culturally acceptable to throw away perfectly good food then everyone will do it and that is not ok. Same with cars if people think it is ok to use fossil fuels over alternative fuels there is no motivation to change. You need to change how people think about climate change.
I also agree with this posts. People will not follow a movement about climate change unless they see the true effects or an example of the effects themselves. People need to be shown that it is better to use public transportation and use alternative fuels over fossil fuels like Cole said. Also composting has grown as an overall trend throughout many peoples homes but a lot of people in urban cities don't take much action to do it. By exposing and demonstrating the effects of climate change you can create a larger movement.
I agree with your post on cars. Cars make a huge impact on our atmosphere and as yous aid, many people think their one car won't make a difference but all the people thinking this just adds to the amount of CO2 emitted into the air. If we all started to use our cars less such as taking public transportation, riding a bike to close enough destinations and carpooling with people going to the same location, we could really help the atmosphere.
I agree this makes a huge impact on the world and it shows how much CO2 is released into the atmosphere. If we start to reduce how much we use our cars this could help with the problem. It is better to carpool, walk, or bike to wherever you are going because it is helping to save the earth.
I agree with you, Robert. Cars have lots of carbon emissions. If people didn't use cars for one whole day the air would be less polluted. The only good things that cars can provide is some vehicles are electric which is a helpful way to get around. People can also bike, walk, or public transportation. Only if people work far and need a car think about purchasing an electric vehicle which saves you gas and saves the environment.
