Nowadays climate change is the
biggest problem of the human being. It is already happening and represents one
of the greatest environmental, social and economic threats facing the planet.
The climate can affect every
person and our health directly through increases in temperature. Such increases
may lead to more extreme heat waves during the summer while producing less
extreme cold spells during the winter. Particular segments of the population
such as those with heart problems, asthma, the elderly, and the very young can
be especially vulnerable to extreme heat. There can be extreme floods and
droughts, hurricanes.
Nowadays there are so many
factories that exhale really destructive substances and pollute the air. We all
know very well that air is something we can’t live without. When we breathe the
polluted air, we can get seriously
ill. Ground-level ozone can damage lung tissue, and is especially harmful for those with asthma and other chronic lung diseases. Sunlight and high temperatures, combined with other pollutants such as nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds, can cause the ground-level ozone to increase.We cannot escape from the polluted air-it’s everywhere, even in our homes and we are breathing it non-stop. This can cause cancer and other serious diseases.
As a conclusion, the UN should prioritize combating climate change over
reducing poverty. Of course, poverty is a big issue, which needs a solution but
have you ever asked yourself why the poor countries like Bangladesh, Gambia,
Zambia are poor and why so many people die? It’s because the climate doesn’t
allow them to grow food and they can’t afford to buy it from other countries.
The climate is a very important thing and if we don’t stop the changes soon,
more and more plants and trees are going to die, we won’t have enough food and
then not only will the third world countries suffer from hunger but so will the
whole world. I think it is better to first stop the changes in climate and then
gradually reduce the hunger in the poor countries. Because if we stop the
changes, we are going to be healthier and everything around us will be cleaner
and it will be how it actually should be. I believe harmony between nature and
human beings will return.
