Climate Change

As we know, the United Nations recently released a report saying that if we do not curb our carbon emissions by 2050, we will have irreparably damaged our planet by raising the average temperature by 2 degrees Celsius. This may not sound like a lot to but it would cause ocean levels to rise as much as 20 feet around the globe, heat waves to become more common and persistent as well as extreme weather to be common place. Now I dont know about you but This is quite alarming to me, BUT we as American seem to still think that this is a topic up for debate. The reality is, as John Oliver put it, you can debate facts all you want, but that does not change the fact that it is indeed a fact, and your opinion on it does not matter. While scientists try fruitlessly to make us understand the dire consequence we are in, the conservatives and global warming deniers try just as furiously to bring doubt to the facts we have been presented. The reality is, unless we all stop listening to the 3 out of 100 scientists who dont believe in climate change, we are essentially writing our own death note. What are your thoughts on the overwhelming evidence?
