Did anyone else know that Human-caused emissions of carbon dioxide need to fall by 45% from 2010 levels by the year 2030 and reach net-zero around 2050 to limit climate change catastrophe. ๐ฎ #lesson12#climatepredictions
@stephforget9 I really enjoy learning all the course material, i've always been what I like to think environmentally friendly as I can, but I've learned so much more about the environment that's furthered my knowledge! I also really enjoyed the whole twitter thing ๐
@JeremyLinardat1 I'll mostly be reviewing notes from the slides, but I also wish we could see all the past quiz questions instead of only the ones we got wrong :/ unless we can and I'm just missing something?
Plant-rich diets reduce emissions and tend to be healthier, leading to lower rates of chronic disease, I've began to eat less meat and am fortunate enough to have my parents buy my meat local from the butcher right down the road form my house in ON!
I'm honestly not surprised that China has the worlds leading carbon emissions, making them the worlds leading polluters. They are then followed by the U.S #lesson12
Back in 2016, many world leaders adopted the United Nationโs 17 global goals and Sustainable Development Goals to help improve life all around the world and work to preserve the earthโs resources and fight climate change! A step in the right direction :) #sustainability#lesson12
@CousineauTy It says that human activity is the main reason for CO2 increase.. changing how we work and not burning so many fossil fuels would be a start to slowing down the increase I'd imagine! #CO2
currently 8 million people (11% of the worlds population) is vulnerable to climate change impacts such as droughts, floods, extreme weather events and sea level rise.
