Our planet is in the midst of a mass extinction.
Carbon emissions are increasing at an alarming rate.

The highest historical carbon dioxide level is the maximum level at which the Earth is capable of sustaining the environment. Any excess amount of greenhouse gases will destroy the balance in the greenhouse effect, which is what we are experiencing right now and have been experiencing since the industrial revolution.
Where is all of this carbon dioxide coming from?

Our task at hand is to come together and encourage world leaders to initiate plans to reduce climate change. We need to start today.
