Climate change is increasing the risks and suffering, yet no effort is being taken to mitigate the consequences. Lately, reports of billions of people on every continent released Monday February 28 by United Nations reported the consequences.

Heat waves, droughts, floods, wildfires, and disease outbreaks are all results of climate change, which is speeding up faster than any scientist could have predicted. What promotes dread is actually harmful to people’s health, both physical and mental.

Heat waves are harming individuals in need, indigenous peoples, and those who are at higher risk as a result of the recent large change in temperature. Heat waves have primarily afflicted the Pacific Northwest in the United States, where impoverished people are more prone to dwell in urban areas.

However, after all of the ignorance about this issue, the state of Florida has recently started updating for the survival needs of rising tides. Rather than resolving to reduce carbon emissions, they want to fight what “Mother Nature” has thrown at them.

The Florida weather has been weirder than usual with cold waves, along with severe thunderstorms. Furthermore, affecting the coral reef as various reports state as well as expectation of rising sea levels, economical and environmental threats are present. States near the ocean will always be threatened by flooding.

We still aren’t committing to this issue to a full percent, even if on the verge of irreversible change, most still choose to blame any excuse for this to be neglected, and politicians even more so. You can do your part by informing yourself on what harm you do by reducing personal footprint.
