Nathan Lewis Reflection

in order for us to do better for the planet we must reduce our co2 emissions drastically. this is feasible by using different energy resources or alternatives. half the energy coal is produced by coal. bituminous coal which contains 45-75 percent carbon rich. an alternative is possibly wind energy, it can produce up to 90 Tera Watts. but isn't very affective if the wind isn't blowing.
if we continue polluting at the rate we are now by 2050 we will be in trouble, because they estimate by 2915 the world population will have increased by 10 billion from its current number.

the problem must be completed as a world effort not just a single country's. to balance out our problems. if we dont make the change then we lose our planet, our planet is also the only one known to mankind that is habitable. we are destroying a key factor to life and need to fix that by resolving our co2 problem. an easy fix that we need to address before it is to late, according to some scientist it is already to late, which is why this problem needs to be fixed.
