Global Warming Discussion
After the deliberation today, I learned a lot about specific ideas of how to prepare, prevent, and stop global warming. For example, one really big issue discussed was the fossil fuels burned by cars, but the general consensus is that buying an electric car is expensive (we all immediately think of Tesla), or we think of electric cars as unappealing, such as the Prius. But Honda and other companies are actually making cars that can run off of hydrogen gas, and would decently affordable. Also the BMW I8, is a sleek sports car that was also recently introduced. Although it doesn’t exactly provide a cheaper option, it does provide a more appealing option for someone looking for a high end sports car, while being planet friendly.
Another topic that was discussed in my group that I thought was really interesting, was the idea of making people change their ways. Some people are more than happy to try to help out the environment and do what they can, but on. the other hand, some people will never want to change their ways, even if there were incentives provided.
