Unpredicted Wheather...

            Most people look at climate change predictions as far off concerns which can be tabled for another decade or two. After all, look how long scientists have been calculating problems associated with global warming. What many people are overlooking is how these climate change predictions are telling us that our economic and personal futures will be greatly affected by our lack of quick actions regarding how we handle this challenge now. Reducing carbon dioxide emissions is no longer a choice. It is a full blown necessity.

          There is no doubt that the steps we take now will require decades to reverse the damage that has been done to our climate. New energy technologies are being researched across the globe. Funding of these projects does not come easy because answers to viable changes in how electricity is created come from changes in economic policies that will affect how we create energy as well as how we live with new energy habits. The plans regarding how money will be spent to curtail the negative climate change predictions must be better spent on research and development of new energy alternatives such as solar and wind rather than to focus on job creation that has resulted in corporate disasters.

         Climate Change predictions show a future of weather related disasters that will become increasingly costly to human lives and treasure. Food supplies will become smaller and as a result the cost of feeding our families will increase to the point of starvation for millions of people who won't be able to afford the basics for their families. Droughts and floods will destroy crops. Water supplies will decrease. If people are educated as to the realities of continued use of fossil fuel, change to wind and solar energy as well as geothermal and hydropower will become understandable. Then there will be a greater consensus for the use of alternative energy.
