Science has clearly shown that the world is warming. What it cannot prove (underline prove) is that the warming is a result of human activity, though the evidence would certainly make it appear that way. So what I tell the nay-sayers in my circle is that we are also unable to prove that the climate change is NOT the result of human activity and we cannot afford to risk that it isn’t and do nothing. We must act. When they say that the United States is not the worst offender, so why should we lead these efforts, I simply say because that is what we do in the United States - we lead the world in doing what is right. We cannot risk inaction waiting on someone else to step up. I am heartened by Biden’s actions, and I believe a gradual transition to more and more green solutions (every bit helps!) will allow us to make an impact while creating jobs and not destroying the economy.
