Even though climate change has been a realization for quite some time now we still do not do enough to prevent or decrease it. The world is heating up, polar ices are melting, animal species are being extinct and environment catastrophes are a part of our every day life. Although this is the truth of today we put our head in the sand and pretend like nothing is happening, why is what?
.
Most of us live normal lives with a job and a family in a middle sized town and are happy with that. This is our life, this is our world! We live here and now and this is it. The fact that this life that you are living right now in this moment, that thing you are do right now and the place you are living in is all a part of something bigger. Just that thing, that we all are and have a part in something bigger might be too much to handle for most people. It is too much to understand, to abstract, so we just push it a side.
.
We all watch the news or read the news papers and almost everyday you hear of villages getting flooded, cities being wiped out by tornados, water rising, water disappearing, ice bears not having enough ice to live at etc. All this because of climate change caused by us. But it is in Africa, South America or some other place around the world- it is not happening here. As long as you and the ones closest to you are safe and not bothered of this climate change it is difficult to motivate a change.
.
It does not matter how aware we are of the climate change if we do not think that we can actually make a change. Most of us do not believe that what we, I- one single human being, do make a difference in a bigger perspective and therefore does not do anything at all.
.
It is a fact that everything we humans do effect the word and the environment in one way or another, in a small or big extend. But it is difficult to realize that what you do here i Sweden effects not only the climate change far away on the other side of the globe but also here, right outside your window. It is happening and even thought you might not think that you can make a difference- You can, so do it!
