Fandango’s Provocative Question 101:

Where do you think we should start with respect to climate change? What role should governments play? What can, we as individual do to help? What steps are you, as an individual, taking? Or do you think climate change is a hoax?

A thought-provoking question or should I say questions. What can anyone think about climate change? I believe the average person do not think about these matters. Especially people that are in survival mode. Certainly not the spiritual challenged person, or those who are mentally ill.

Then there is the segment of people who do have some type of awareness because they read it in a newspaper, magazine, and heard it on the opiniated you tube podcasts and other social media outlets.  

In as much as hearing about it, there is not much the individual can do about it. Climate change is a natural development that has been going on with the Earth for millions of years. Some of the changes to the climate are completely natural, while other changes are influenced by manmade activity. The changes that we are witnessing today could be a combination of natural and manmade activities.

Thinking about what role should the government have in the scheme of things. Perhaps they should have a great say, because human beings need to regulate their behavior. Humans by nature are selfish, they would destroy an environment and do the type of activity that is contributing to climate change without a second thought, just to justify their means.

At most the individual person can help by becoming aware of the activities that contribute to climate change. Perhaps using solar energy products, that is if they can afford to, and that type of things is available. Otherwise, the focus will be to change entire industries from buying fossil fuels, change emissions in machines and automobiles. So there is very little that can be done on the individual level.

Most people think that climate change is a hoax because of what the media puts out. Stuff like, Al Gore making big profits on climate change initiatives, make people think that the whole thing is just a for profit scheme. Then again, people tend to deny things, hell, we have people saying that COVID-19 is a hoax; the hard evidence could be slapped in their faces, and still people will think it is a hoax.
