Copenhagen. Change.

Those two words both start with C!
Quite observant, no?

The leaders at the meeting in Copenhagen have decided upon many changes to fight global warming. Yet Sarah Palin disagrees that these changes will do much good.

I must say I concur. Global warming is a factor in our lives and will affect future generations even more than it affects us now. We should do the little things like conserving energy, carpooling, conserving water, recycling, etc., but there's only so much we can do. To have such large international meetings to discuss this matter and then initiate policies in the world isn't going to do much good if the people themselves don't want to change. Like a certain old man tells me, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink." The government can push us to conserve more or plant more trees, but unless we get 100% participation, global warming won't go away. Perhaps we should continue focusing on how we will deal with the potential climate change effects when those consequences come into play in the future. We know, deep inside, that these consequences could happen. If we do start to see even more earthquakes, hurricanes, storms, etc., then how will we deal with that? Maybe we should have detailed emergency plans for every state, every city. I don't know, but I don't really see the great benefits of having meetings and talking about what we will do, then forcing the people to abide by the new policies. There are always loopholes. But more importantly, somehow the people need to be more motivated to change!

Personally, I don't think the world's going to end or that global warming is going to kill us all. You can show me as much evidence and scientific research as you want, but I'm adamant to stick to my opinion.

Don't worry, I recycle, if that makes you feel better. =]
