The Climate change problem in Canada
Dear Mr. Trudeau,
My name is Humzah K. I am writing to you addressing the rise of climate change and greenhouse gas emissions in Canada. Now I know that you and the government are aware of this problem and trying to solve it but if we want to make a real change and impact then we need to start trying harder so that we can resolve this problem or at the minimum reduce it.
I think that seeing how us Canadians are contributing to the enhanced greenhouse effect and climate change, we should make it mandatory to stop relying on fossil fuels and to rely on more renewable resources like solar panels and electric cars. Now I understand that this will be very very costly but we should forget about the money for a minute and focus on saving our planet because if we don't start taking more action then the future of Canada and the whole world will not be guaranteed.
I also think that this would help with some of the problems the Indigenous communities are facing like lack of clean water and food. For example, in the Northwest Territories higher temperatures are negatively affecting the people in the area by the global temperatures rising. Fewer animals are migrating and it is becoming really hard to grow traditional plants in their lands.
