Hi dummie! Well, I was searching about the climate change and I found that tomorrow is the day of the Internacional Climate Action, so im going to write you about this.
While our leaders continue to talk about what's "politically possible," the world continues to warm and precious days are running. The latest science shows that runaway global warming is even closer than we feared. We can't continue to allow our leaders to sit back and play political games when our future is at stake. Thatss why on October 24th, Greenpeace is joining with 350 organizations and a broad coalition of groups to participate in an international day of action. Events are already planned in over 100 countries around the world. Some are big, some are small, but every single one of them is absolutely necessary. Including yours…
Science clearly tells us that only dramatic action can prevent global warming and its catastrophic impacts, and the world is looking to our leaders to, well, lead. In doing so, they need to think about the next generation, not the next election.
Why we must take care of the planet?
-Mexico occupies the fifth place in deforestation worldwide.
-More than 50 per cent of our forests they disappeared in the last 50 years.
-65 per cent of the original coverage of swamp of our country has disappeared.
-25 millions of peope live in vulnerability because the global warming.
-There is an increasing dependence of the oil and other fossil fuels.
-Most of the commercial fisheries is in the limit of exploitation.
-Every second, more than 205 thousand liters of waters without treating come to the sea.
-73 per cent of the available water in the country is contaminated and needs treatment before being destined for the human consumption.
-More than 80 per cent of the agricultural lands present some level of erosion.
-Every year, the field receives at least 15 thousand tons of pesticides that impress the soil, our food and to the peasants who produce it.
-The liberation of transgenics destroy the ecological diversity, especially the maize.
-80 per cent of the varieties of the maize disappeared.
-More than 30 million persons live in regions with bad quality of the air.
Now more than ever, we need you, we need that the world leaders act to stop global warming, and they need to hear from you dummie and everyone you know. We need thousands of marches, rallies, and vigils worldwide. The event you organise on October 24th will be part of the international cry for world leaders to do what it takes to stop global warming.
