THE EARTH NEEDS YOU Global warming is a reality, and its worst years are about to hit us. We are facing a global emergency that we can still revert, but we must do so globally and collectively. We have been able to contain the coronavirus pandemic. Now we must stop global warming, ocean pollution and forest desertification.GLOBAL WARMINGGreta Thunberg echoed a desperate scream of our planet. Earth's temperature has risen almost 1 °C in the last century, and will keep rising in the following decades. Greenhouse gases such as CO2 or Methane are destroying our atmosphere and making our planet warmer and less breathable. It is fundamental that we stop these emissions and start betting on cleaner energy as soon as possible to prevent the poles from melting, the equator desertification, the sea-level rise and the extinction of thousands of species. OIL, COAL AND GAS POLLUTION From their extraction to their consumption, oil, coal and gas are terribly polluting and are destroying our atmosphere and our oceans. Their respective industries are very powerful and are making some people very rich, but they are harming every single lifeform on Earth, including ourselves. We must stop these industries and replace them for renewable energy sources. SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION It is essential to replace gas cars for electric cars. Tesla Motors has pioneered a great revolution in the car industry, which is now being followed by other manufacturers. Segways, e-scooters, bikes and other sustainable vehicles are also favouring a change in the way we move, helping to put an end to the gas era. PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION From tram lines and metro networks to the maglev trains and Elon Musk's hyperloop, a series of sustainable public transportation systems are proliferating and changing the way we move. Supporting these systems and favouring their construction and implementation is fundamental to live in greener cities, clean our atmosphere and stop climate change. GREEN CITIES Eco-friendly buildings with their own waste processing and water reprocessing systems. Larger and greener parks. Wider streets with plenty of trees. Our cities must be reinvented to integrate nature and become more environmentally respectful, much more enjoyable places to live our lives. DESERTIFICATION AND REFORESTATION The Sahara expansion or the South America deforestation are global tragedies that we are just on time to stop. If equatorial areas end up desertifying, Earth will lose some of its most important lungs, and climate change will be irreversible. We must urgently put an end to uncontrolled deforestation, and we must support international reforestation projects to fix all the affected areas. Every planted tree brings a tiny bit of life to our so needed home planet.
