Climate Disruption

It's to no surprise climate disruption is happening. What is unbelievable is that there are people out there who actually deny that it is an issue. With surrounding facts and consequences that are already occurring from climate disruption, it's hard to understand what people are thinking who deny climate change.

What are some of the effects of climate disruption?

-----"These changes are already being observed in various forms in different areas, such as prolonged drought, heavier rain falls, retreating glaciers, melting permafrost, loss of sea ice, and rising sea levels. The impacts of these changes are disrupting transportation, energy, agriculture and health systems, and are expected to increase."-------

So, climate disruption isn't just hurting the environment, it is also hurting us and how we are living/the systems we have created. Climate disruption is actually stressing water resources which will in turn have a domino-like effect on many aspects that follow suit around it. Our whole health is surrounded by water and without a reliable source of water to be found, we will definitely be risking our health and well-being. 

----The U.S. Pentagon issued a statement saying that climate disruption actually poses a greater threat to it than terrorism. ----

So, how does this affect us locally? Obviously, this is occurring right at the very moment and people have to learn how to deal with it in someway or another. For example, we can take a look at the droughts we have had recently on the west coast in California. The Sierra Nevada mountains snow pack actually ended up melting due to higher than normal temperatures. The high temperatures also caused some of California's reservoirs capacity of H20 to decrease which is the source of water for millions. This is the negative consequence droughts have on citizens and the environment. 

The huge global problem of climate disruption is due to not just one country, one population, or one thing. Rather it is from a combined effort of how we make every day decisions and how our history has developed us in to industrious societies. It's scary that the negative consequences are so rapid, literally it is frightening, yet the effects don't seem to be slowing down, but increasing exponentially. If something doesn't change we are going to seem more local effects, there is no doubt about it.
