Small Nuclear Energy will help solve climate change
Climate change has had an enormous impact on our planet and is continuing to affect our earth daily. However we as humans have the ability to prevent further impact if we act now. This is a global problem and no one country alone can fix it. While climate science is fairly complicated; the majority of the world’s climate scientists are in agreement that carbon emissions are changing the climate in ways that are changing global temperatures. In recent years the consequences of climate change have become more serious. Every year new records are set. The world is experiencing more heat waves, and in fact the last 22 years have been the hottest on record. The world also has the most melting of ice ever recorded in the North Pole.
A Brief Background
The world has released over 1.5 trillion tons of carbon dioxide or CO2 into the Earth’s atmosphere since the beginning of the industrial revolution. In 2019 alone, the world has released around 37 billion tons more. That’s 50% more than the world emissions in the year 2000 and almost three times emissions as much as 50 years ago. It’s not just CO2 that is causing global warming, the world is also releasing growing emissions of other greenhouse gases such as methane and nitrous oxide.
If we stay on this course, our situation is not going to get any better. As we look…
