And the human population will begin to decline very soon. So say the scientists who study and publish on population change.

The earth will be fine. There is no need to transfer significant amounts of wealth to other countries.

I believe that Humans and their development of the world have some sort of impact on the Earth's climate, not a very big one though.

The planet is heating up a rapid rate nates. But this is just a normal 1500 year warming cycle.

"Fortunately, millennials understand the severity of the climate change issue better than other generations. A study by Statista in March 2014, looked at the different attitudes on climate change between four generations. The survey split participants up into millennials (18-36), GenX (37-48), Baby Boomers (49-67) and Matures (68+). When asked if they believed that climate change was real and that humans were to blame for most of it, 50 percent of millennials answered yes, whereas only 37 percent of Matures agreed. Baby Boomers and Gen Xers were more neutral, answering 43 percent and 47 percent respectfully.

These numbers do not come as a shock. Historically, younger generations have always been more active about the environment and social movements. Younger generations like millennials today consistently champion the issues that will effect them in the years to come, just like their parents did on civil rights and gender equality. Today, that means young people are more likely to be active in climate politics."


While it's unsettling that not more people understand that climate change is the biggest problem we are facing, I'm optimistic that with more matures and Baby Boomers retiring/dying off, and more of the younger generation and liberals running for office to take a stand and make a difference, we can tackle this problem.
