Discussion --- Week 2

I think the most important global environmental problem is CO2 emission especially in developed countries. As many people now recognize, most developed countries have large emission of carbon dioxide (China and India as well). We all know that we have to do something with this issue to stop global warming, however, the CO2 problem seems a little unrealistic since we are not really having influences on our everyday life directly. The CO2 emission issue has been discussed among nations, however, it is obviously not easy thing to find a good solution to this and acheive goal of reducing emissions. I think that countries still need to discusss about the emissions of CO2 to find a better solution to this. I also think that not only governments but also each person needs to be aware of the environmental issue and think of what we can do for reducing CO2 emission such as using public transportation rather than driving own car (especially if you are living in a city).

I think that people who live in an environment friendly way are aware of the importance of nature and resources. They know that the nature and resources are limited. So they try to live without wastes as possible. People can bring their own shopping bag instead of getting new one whenever they shop. People can put another cloth on instead of turning the heat up. Those things seems a little inconvenient but they are things what people can do in everyday life without making a lot of efforts. I think that people should encourage each other to do those things.
