Climate change, the great challenge for humanity

Since the beginning of civilizations, natural temperature fluctuations have approached more or less one degree per millennium, however the announced temperatures are based on changes that go from 15 to 60 times faster. We are facing the challenge of climate change.

The resolutions to take to avoid cultural, climate older are increasingly impossible to maintain in industrialized countries. Indeed, the Intergovernmental panel estimates that emissions would have to be reduced by 60% between now and 2050 to maintain global warming. planet at an acceptable level, which seems like a cliché given the inertia of our societies. A scientific study by the International Energy Agency reveals that CO2 emissions will increase by at least 60% in the atmosphere between now and 2020, even if the commitments of the Kyoto and Paris conferences are applied in a way. effective.

To limit the future cultural, climateWhile the poor countries are allowed to develop, the per capita consumption of rich countries will have to be divided by 2 and that of poor countries will have to be doubled.

Everyone must adapt to the climate evolution. In the end there is no other choice. The system expresses enormous inertia, and regardless of what is done today, we must adapt to climate change, which is a phenomenon inscribed in time.

It is necessary that the opinion be sure of one thing, the Scientists they're clear. There are no great uncertainties regarding the movie in front of us. And policies cannot hide behind alleged unknown variables in order not to act. This means that scientists are confident enough that now is the time for politicians to act.

In the end, countries industrialized, responsible for this greater and planetary phenomenon that compromises the stability of humanity, have difficulties to put into practice the means to reduce and adapt to the measure of the inescapable consequences that are already visible.

Currently it is not the information that is lacking, what is lacking is the courage to understand what we know and draw the pertinent conclusions. At this level, the responsibility of all citizens is compromised, and each must be indicated personally at their own level.
