Global Warming.

I do not think there can be a more pressing issue than climate change. It was quite a surprise to see that the UK PM Rishi Sunak has very recently made a substantial change to the planned green program and to have done this at such a crucial time. The result will be a replacement of the UK position in leading green policies to a half hearted attempt of reduction in global warming.

Day after day more tragedies take place involving flooding and fires. The frequencies of these events and loss of life are likely to become more prominent. Not to do all that is possible in the shortest time is simply out of the question, the need for sustaining a thriving in our environments must be paramount.

Even the use of a shield to claim a reach in the target of net zero emission by 2050 will be of little consolation for populations that are suffering flooding or catastrophic events. There are many countries that could and have already experienced adverse weather conditions, including areas in the UK.

Global Warming is an extreme issue. It requires urgent action to counter its effect and this realisation surely must take precedence over any short term political manoeuvres by the present government. Environment matters that influence lives are more significant than any attempts to attract votes in order to retain power.

Our education methods and scientific tools have shown us that action can have an impact. Our leaders have the power to put that information into policy format and convey what matters through a positive and forward thinking approach. People can use what they have to a positive advantage and if handled responsibility, issues of such a serious scale can be moderated and learnt from for the future.
