When it comes to talking about climate change or global warming, to me it is just another example of what we have been talking about all year long. Social media puts out all sorts of views on the topic coming from both ends of the spectrum. People can voice their own opinions, say whatever is wanted without facts to back it up. That is what social media is and mainly consists of. Sadly we all are sucked into this trap, and without conscious effort, it's hard not to. Its easier to just believe what pops up or what most people you know are thinking or saying about the matter.
How do we fix this problem then? What is a solution to the matter? I think it comes back to what we have continually talked about since day one in this class. We need to figure it out for ourselves. We need to go dig and find the data and truth about the topic, no matter what it may be. Whether it's global warming or what ISIS is doing, or the next big thing, we just need to find the truth. Go out and find reliable sources that can give us the right information for both sides of the issue. From there we can form our own opinions about the matter, and follow through how we see fit. It we want to find a solution to climate change, go out find the truth and make the change you see fit. While we are only one person, we can make a difference by knowing, understanding, and making change happen.
