I think humans have definitely affected our changing environment. We need to be thinking globally and changing our habits when it comes to our use of electricity, cars, water, recycling... so many things we can do to alleviate the impact humans are having.

I read some UN reports on climate change and I think it gave a good example of how different countries will be able to cope with climate change. While Swiss ski resorts are investing in snow-making machines to adapt to climate change, women and children in the Horn of Africa are 'adapting' by walking further and further (up to 5 hours a day) just to find safe water. Countries in the Horn of Africa have had the smallest carbon footprints and yet they are the first to feel the effects of global warming.

Thank you for your discussion comments. I agree that climate change affects us all, no matter where we are. It's horrible that those who are the worst contributors aren't affected as much or don't seem to care how they affect the globe. I agree that it's those who are innocent in the climate change realm who feel the effects. I think we all need to be more responsible for our planet. I could go on and on...
