As I am currently working on a Thesis on Carbon Financing, the issue of global warming, which is the root of my thesis, is actually taken not so seriously. I think, its high time we take some action, something sooner, faster.
Local news papers here in Ahmedabad, India, reported the worst start of the summer ever. Temperature used to be 40 / 41 C on an average in the start of the month, but this time, it has touched 43 C on an average across the state of Gujarat, where in some places, it has touched even 45 C.
Might sound horrifying, but only to a few. The ignorance here still needs to be dealt with. Seems like the situation is worsening at an accelerating speed. When asked, a lady grown up enough to understand it all, answers "We won't live long enough, so we need not worry about this all!" I can't express 'lol'.
Don't we, as human being, have some special powers, and hence, special responsibilities? We're either going bake the planet or freeze it to death.
We need to take action. But, we don't have much time. Is it really about who'll take it?
