Climate Change What’s happening in our planet? When we talk about our planet it’s to talk about climate change, and how it is affecting us, but what about who is provoking the climate change. The climate of our planet has changed in the last decades, and the earth is overheating more every year. The climate change of the planet has taken millions of lives, and the same humans have provoked this devastating change on our planet. We are consuming our own home and the home of other species. Climatic change passes from being a curiosity to a global problem. Climate change has existed from the beginning of the creation of the earth until the last global glaciation, but those changes have been naturally. Nowadays, human are concern more about economic …show more content…

Humans have been guilty for this great change that our planet is suffering. Humans are responsible for the increase of the temperature, for increase of the oceans levels, and for the extinction of some animals. Joseph DiMento affirms in the article “Climate Change: What It Means for Us, Our Children, and Our Grandchildren” that the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change affirmed that there is a strong evidence that humans have had a great impact on the global climate (65). Humans’ activities all around the world have destroyed a lot of important ecosystems such as the Amazon. The over population is affecting many ecosystems. As the population grows, we need more space because we are occupying at home to many animal species. Peter Singer mentions in his book “Practical Ethics” “…the discovery that human activities are changing the climate of our planet has brought with it knowledge of new ways in which we can harm one another” (216). Industries have more impact on climate change. Industries as oil industries release many issues in the atmosphere affecting the ozone layer. These issues are the ones that are warming up planet and destroying ecosystems.

It’s the only planet that we can live in. It is not only a planet of humans, it is also the home of so many animals, and they have the right of having a better world to live in. Scientists talk about adaption to climate change. Adaptation is not the only way to survive; we need to change this climate change to a regular climate. In his article “Climate Change: What it Means for Us, Our Children, and Grandchildren” (2010), Joseph DiMento explains that “almost half of Americans think global warming is caused more by human activities than by natural changes in the climate and that 56 percent believe the government could do more to address the problem” (149). Here DiMento suggest that the majority of the people believe that we can go back to the regular climate by making the government change the policies on restoring and protecting our natural resources. As human we need circumstances to be appropriate to survive. Peter Singer mentions in his book “Practical Ethics” “…it is also obviously true that the poorer nations lack the resources to adapt” (223). We are pushing many people to the point of having to commit suicide. Humans are not the only ones who will suffer from floods, or droughts. Animals will die for floods and droughts because we are altering their ecosystems. We have to take care of our planet now. We need to change our life, and save the life and ecosystems of our animals. In the past decades we have suffered from
