Ok, global warming a hot button issue of late with so many people on each side that if you listen to each side your head will spin. This is based upon the spin that each side is putting on their platform. So lets assume that there is global warming and we're headed for increased temps with no relief. The big cause is carbon emissions and as an industrial society those emissions are increasing as countries modernize. Everyone seems to point to India and China as adding to our current problem along with the increase use of fossil fuels. No one is pointing to the increase in population. If each of us decreases our carbon footprint will it matter in the long run base upon the added footprints of population growth?

As individuals and who lives in this earth, we are all responsible of what is happening around us. It is up to the person if he or she would take the responsibility. We can make a difference considering a single person can even make a simple change, how much more if we are all united to make that difference.

Yes, we are the world, we make up this global problem and it is up to us to solve it. I do feel it would take a radical move to bring a change that would make a difference, because I think we are in a snowball effect as we tumble down the mountain of wrongs. I think we all should at least try to make the effort. It is better then saying lets do nothing because there is no hope.
