 I recently learned that half of the government is denying climate change and global warming. I don't want to point any fingers, but the more conservative side isn't recognizing climate change at all. It's crazy to think how someone can deny what's going on in the world, how there is scientific evidence that the climate is changing and the sea are, in fact, rising. For example, Greenland has the highest rate of global warming, that is, the ice is melting at an unusual rate;the process of the the ice melting and falling off into the water is called calving, which is another process the conservative side of congress doesn't acknowledge. Another example, there are nine hundred million tons of just plastic in the ocean and there is no legislation being passed or nothing done by the government to fix the rate at which, we, the people are destroying our would and environment. When it comes to our environment, there are no sides at fault,but the population as a whole and we need to get past a partisan ideology an do something about the world we live. That being said, the government needs to start making the environment an agenda setting issue.
