STE 8-Prudence
Over the last few decades, the earth has slowly begun to change. Natural disasters
that some people have encountered have become unusual. That’s why many individuals
are afraid because the world they’ve never seen has established its existence as a result
of certain people's misuse, greed, and cruelty against nature. Everything that is now going
on around us is entirely man-made. As an example, trees that used to be nice to look at
have disappeared due to deforestation. Is obtaining wood more important than trees that
provide us with clean air to breathe, provide homes for wildlife, and protect our land from
floods? Deforestation leads to more carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere.
This is because trees take in carbon dioxide from the air for photosynthesis. With fewer
trees to absorb carbon dioxide, this greenhouse gas builds up in the atmosphere, which
leads to global warming. Humans are both the cause and the solution to these problems,
which is why researchers and scientists all over the world are developing solutions to help
minimize the effects of these issues, especially climate change, and it is our responsibility
to implement them.
To conclude, certain people who are already aware of the changes in the earth’s
climate need others to listen to them and understand that no matter how serious the
situation is, we can still overcome it by addressing and dealing with climate change. The
planet is our home, and our homes will never adjust to accommodate us; instead, we
must adapt to fit in, because we are the only ones who will benefit in the end. According
to statistics about climate change and children, an additional 24 million children are
expected to be undernourished as a result of the climate crisis by 2050. Therefore, this is
not just about us; future generations also need our help to prevent the worst from
happening.
