Week Six

This week we discussed a lot about computer models and the "politics" of climate change . We talked about the IPCC which stands for the Inter government Panel on Climate Change. We discussed what this is and what it stands for. It was interesting to learn more about the government and its take on climate change. I don't' personally believe that a priority should be given to making money or an type of economic gain over the negative effects or impacts that it may potentially have on climate change. We only have one planet in which we are capable of living on and this is our only option to live so this should be our number one central concept in our minds with every decision that we make, whether a personal decision or a large scale nation wide decision. We also read an article about climate change anthropology. This was an interesting article because it focused on the on humans and the effects that we have on our environment. We as people need to look at ourselves in terms of our wasteful, high emission cultures and work to limit the emissions that we have in our daily lives moving forward.
