The three most concerning environmental issues to me are Global warming, Over Population, and Hazardous waste sites. All of these are easily preventable if we do the right things as a community. We have been warned for years about global warming and still have chosen to done nothing impactful about it. We have been given a date and we have to act before that date or face the music. Some of the consequences we are already facing such as catastrophic weather patterns and species endangerment. If we don’t act swiftly and extremely it will get much worse. We as a whole can chose to live off of clean energy and stop using nonrenewable resources. These big oil and coal companies need to either make the big switch or die out with their oil and coal. Over population is a large factor of why global warming has become such a big deal. We have more people than our planet was made for and we aren’t even trying to live sustainably. At the very least we could stop eating beef so that land wouldn’t be cut for cattle production and the over population of cows would not cause methane levels to raise. We need to find a fix for our overpopulation problem and work towards living sustainably. Hazardous waste sites are something that should frustrate everyone. Companies are playing with people’s lives just to save a quick buck. We need harsher environmental laws. We need regulations and punishments so harsh that companies never think about destroying our environment. Something that I’ve seen also help is tax incentives so that companies who are clean save money via taxes by helping the environment.
