Climate Change Personal Statement

Humans face many serious issues, no one can deny that, but when choosing the most important issue to face first, I think our choices are usually biased due to personal opinion. I want to help people recognize that we need to prioritize the restoration of the planet to a healthier state. Growing up I never saw people view climate change as a threat, due to the debate on its actual existence, but I can see now that so many people are ill informed or don’t care enough to see we are on a decaying path and I want to help move towards saving the earth while we can. Naturally people have different opinions, so I believe common interest must be found before people will choose to start taking our impact on climate change more seriously. There are many effects of climate change that provide continuous evidence of our negative impact on the environment and we should continue to use these as examples to convince the public that something needs to be done!
