Ted Talks: Climate Trends- Al Gore

We live in a world where many people are careless, and there are many causes of natural catastrophes caused by humans, and excess use. Al Gore educates us on the climate trends.

From burning fossil fuels, to emitting carbon dioxide, we have a larger impact on the planet than we may think. About 1/3 of the world's pollution is caused by cars, and most of the time, a car is occupied by 1-2 people. There is so much waste happening, and people do not seem to realize the effect they have to the earth. Gore goes on to say that " if we don't do something to mitigate it (it is to far along to stop) then agriculture will severely suffer from droughts, floods, and super storms." Gore expresses  his love for the planet, and his hatred for those who misuse the resources  He states that the world got greedy, and because of that, the earth no longer has anything to give back.

This article educates us on the problems the world is going through, and unfortunately, we have impacted the world so much, that much of the damage can not be undone.
