"Human beings are resilient creatures. We have overcome every challenge. We have learnt to shape and control the environment to suite ourselves, but we can not continue down this path. We can not continue to insist that we have dominion over the Earth. We can not ignore the warning signs. We can not pick and choose what science we wish to believe simply to suite our own needs.

I believe we will survive, but I can not say the same for the other creatures we share this planet with. Due to our actions, the oceans of our planet will continue to rise and grow, yet they will only become empty. We are hurting and destroying everything around us, and one day we will find that the consequences of our actions have damned us to a barren rock that was once a beautiful world. We need to stop listening to those with the agendas, and start listening to those with the evidence."
