If you are looking for reasons to take action to stop the human caused effects of climate change, you need look no further than the report conducted by the IPCC. The report highlights many problems associated with a warming climate and after reading it there really is no doubt that this is a reality. The effects associated with climate change are scary, and very real.
Policy needs to be created to address these things and they need to be urgent. There are gatherings for agreeing parties. One of these is the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, or UNFCCC. Students, professors, politicians, and scientists all gather here in agreement that something needs to be done. A It is easy to put your problems aside to deal with them in the future, but unfortunately Climate Change is not one of these. It needs to be dealt with today. It is also unique in that this is an international problem, meaning we need an international solution. The bright side of this situation is that it presents humankind with an opportunity to work together internationally like we have never done before.
