Change for Climate
Change
“Only the word PERMANENT is permanent in this world”
This statement proved that all of the things around are not
stable. Nothing in this world will still
be at its original appearance after how many years of existence above the
earth. Just like when you have a new car, after how many years it will have
rust, the color of the car is not shiny as that when it was bought and many
more changes will occur. This is one example only that proved that nothing is
permanent.
On the other hand, when we talk about our climate, it really
changes a lot already and the problem is it still continuing to change. If we
experienced for the past years that the weather is okay, the temperature of the
surrounding is normal, now it has already change. Temperature is really
different compares to the past. We are now experiencing high temperature. This
is the sign that the climate really changed already. Climate change is a
change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns
when that change lasts for an extended period of time. Climate change may refer
to a change in average weather conditions, or in the time variation of weather
around longer-term average conditions.
We must be informed about this because Climate change is one of the most fundamental challenges
ever to confront humanity. Its adverse impacts are already being seen and may
intensify exponentially over time if nothing is done to reduce further
emissions of greenhouse gases. Decisively dealing NOW with climate change is
key to ensuring sustainable development, poverty eradication and safeguarding
economic growth. Scientific assessments indicate that the cost of inaction now
will be more costly in the future. Thus, economic development needs to be
shifted to a low-carbon emission path.
Human health is one of
the most vital sectors which will be severely affected by climate change.
Incremental increases in temperatures and rain regimes could trigger a number
of adverse impacts; in particular, the outbreak and spread of water-based and
vector-borne diseases leading to higher morbidity and mortality; increased
incidence of pulmonary illnesses among young children and cardiovascular
diseases among the elderly. In addition, there could also be increased health
risk from poor air quality especially in urbanized areas.
So we must act for the climate
change. We must do our part in taking care our self and environment. We must
change for climate change.
