It also goes into how hopefully we will have primarily recyclable packaging and products throughout the shelves in stores. ]]> 2018-08-28 14:29:19 UTC https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/275886312 oforester20 https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/275886952 The Climate Action Tracker (CAT) was started in 2009 by three research organizations. CAT tracks "global warming consequence and emissions gaps."]]> 2018-08-28 14:30:57 UTC https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/275886952 oforester20 https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/276213631 The Guardian has compiled a list of 12 countries plus Europe and the actions they hope to take to make their country a healthier place by cutting C02 emissions. In each article there is a graph with the current rate of C02 emissions, and how the rate will change if the desired actions are taken by each country. ]]> 2018-08-29 13:41:51 UTC https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/276213631 oforester20 https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/276223403 This source explains how the general public can take action against climate change, such as using renewable energy to power your home, weatherize your house instead of AC and heat, reduce water waste, etc. ]]> 2018-08-29 14:01:33 UTC https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/276223403 oforester20 https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/276228400 NASA uses evidence to prove climate change is affecting us, and how it has become an issue. They describe the causes climate change has on our Earth and the human population, as well as more solutions to the problem. ]]> 2018-08-29 14:11:41 UTC https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/276228400 mgourley20 https://padlet.com/oforester20/climateaction/wish/276353518 This article discusses the crucial steps that need to be taken in order to reach the goals set by climate action. They mention reducing carbon emissions,for countries to put energy towards adapting to the change in weather, and to keep an open mind and think about the possibility the geoengineering techniques aiming to keep warming in check can be controversial. It also goes deeper into steps and processes that scientists and researchers should engage in, in order to improve the climate.

It explains how it is an issue worldwide and how nations have responded to it. It also gives specific ways for scientists to better the problem along with the public. One of the most emphasized ways is to inform the public about the scientific issues and how people can help act on it.

This article on the Union of Concerned Scientists talks about 10 reasons to promote taking action in attempt to better the environment/climate. A few points that really stuck out in the article are: Creating jobs that provide new opportunities, improving the health of all people, and saves elements that are crucial to the environment.
