Climate awareness

• Our climate is breaking down

•  A tree is an example of a natural climate solution.

• Nature is a tool we can use to repair our broken climate

• We spend one thousand times more on global fossil fuel subsidies than on natural-based solutions.

• Much of the Arctic ice is gone. Most of our wild animals have gone. Much of our soil has gone.

• we need to protect, restore and fund.

• nature can regenerate and we can help ecosystems bounce back

• Many people have already begun using natural climate solutions. We need to do it on a massive scale.

Summary

Our climate is getting destroyed which is causing most of the arctic ice to melt whilst also badly affecting our soil and wildlife. Unfortunately, people are spending more money on global fossil fuel subsidies as compared to natural-based solutions. A tree is a natural tool with that we can recover our climate because nature can help ecosystems regenerate. Many people have already shifted to natural climate solutions but we need to work on big scale.

SUMMARY

Bushfires devastated northeastern suburbs of Perth in February 2021 but they were not as widespread or prolonged as the black summer fires. The bushfires began from Wooroloo by accident though human activity in absence of lightning strikes which spread due to presence of scattered trees igniting embers in the hilly area that made firefighting difficult. High temperature and low humidity conditions over six days instead of the typical two to three days made firefighting a challenge for emergency response personnel. Shifting climate causing prolonged warm and dry weather is making bushfires worse. Knowledge spreading is the key to prepare for future bushfires.

 

Opinion

People should become aware about the climate changes so they know the preventive methods they can take. people should avoid activities involving outdoor fires in sensitive weather conditions.
