Today’s discussion about climate change was an insightful one filled with meaningful observations and viewpoints. Pertaining to the course of action(s) we talked about, I believe that a mix between preparing for the worst as well as taking drastic measures will be the choices we will be facing in the near future. As is, we are already noticing the effects of global warming not in our own environments but in the ecosystems and habitats of many animals around the world. Due to the effects of the Industrial Revolution and technological innovations ever since, we’ve gained much innovation at an irreplaceable cost. I believe that we will need to start taking drastic measures to save the environment which will be more than just switching to reusable bags and refillable water bottles. In our group today, we discussed how many won’t like the idea of our rights being infringed upon by protocols that may help save the environment. I think one question we need to ask ourselves is, “How much more can the Earth take and are we willing to push those boundaries until they break?”. Evident in alternate energy source technology such as Tesla and hybrid cars, we are still looking for ways to minimize the footprint we are permanently imprinting on Earth rather than stop creating those large footprints.
