Mom says, common sense tells us that we must change some of our ways of doing things:
things are getting hotter- the last seven years are the hottest on record
the weather is becoming more extreme and unpredictable
the permafrost is thawing and at some point will release a massive amount of methane (much worse than carbon dioxide)
there are feedback loops (like glaciers melting and oceans rising) that are accelerating our environmental changes
**BUT** if we all work together we can stop this decline- see how.
