Individuals can help mitigate climate change through reducing their carbon footprint. While climate change is inevitable as the world evolves, its effects can be lessened by decreasing greenhouse gas emissions and protecting wildlife. Governments and societies should protect ecosystems, support sustainable small agriculture, and promote green energy to fight climate change.

1. What significant contribution can individuals make in response to climate
change?
Even through small actions could create a huge impact to the
environment. I think the best thing we could do is to lessen our carbon footprint as human. Leave a small carbon footprint in this world.
2. Is climate change preventable?
Somewhat yes and somewhat no. Climate change is inevitable as to world
still evolving and changing its phase. But we can reduce the effects of climate change such as the increasing concentration of greenhouse gases which will result to higher temperature and the near extinction of wild animals by stopping the illegal catching of these animals.
3. What should be the significant contribution of the society as well as the
government in mitigating the hazards caused by climate change?
Protect and restore key ecosystem
Respect for nature is fundamental. Governments must protect ecosystems key to the fight against climate change: rivers, wetlands, oceans, forests and mangroves absorb large quantities of carbon, slowing warming. Mangroves also serve as a barrier against tropical storms, and wetlands absorb excess water from floods, both extreme weather events exacerbated by climate change.
Support small agricultural producers
Governments can make a difference by supporting small local producers
who, unlike large factory farms, employ sustainable practices, care about land restoration, benefit nearby communities, and make animals and crops more resilient to climate change. It’s less about everybody becoming vegetarians, but more about supporting those who produce our food with a respect for nature.
Promote green energy

While thermoelectric and hydroelectric energies were long considered the
cheapest options, technological developments have allowed us to find better, cheaper, more efficient alternatives.
