I know a lot of people are posting of climate change and water pollution or air pollution.
Air pollution is big to me although I would argue that we have came a really really longs
ways with emissions. I know a lot of people think solar is better with the cars but is it?
Due to the lithium in the batteries the car needs will this be safe? Definitely breathing
carbon dioxide is not safe but do we smell enough in order to effect us from a health
standpoint? These are just some of the questions that I have. Now what I did find
interesting is the prediction that (if I understood right) oil will run dry by 2050. Why has
this never been mentioned? I really do not know this is a really great topic I just wish I
knew how to write better to make a great opinion on something because really there is
so much here to this. Just talking in pollution itself. Does some of this pollution cause
cancer and sicknesses? I do not believe that any of this causes climate change and also
do not believe in climate change but however, maybe I will be challenged for questioning
within myself or find out what I would consider to be the truth.
Two environmental challenges that we face in society are water pollution and ozone
depletion. In relation to what I have learned this week I can honestly say I don't have a
lot of knowledge in both of these issues, but a lot of the terms learned this week has
helped me understand them a bit more. For instance though I have learned about these
terms back in high school which was decades ago, renewable and non renewable
resources and when our water is polluted or used up it can not be renewed. I live in
Michigan and we have witnessed how the Flint water crisis have devastated an entire
community with polluted water. We have government policies and regulations that are
supposed to prevent this kind of crisis from happening however
the effect that this has had on the residents of Flint may have been prevented with the
appropriate risk analysis.
