Well done everyone at Cathkin blog group for choosing such an important topic for the blog-a-thon!
I am the sustainable Development officer at South Lanakshire Council and i think it is critically important for young people to make their voices heard on this issue. This blog-a-thon is a great way of doing this! All descision makers have to realise that the choices we make today will determin the extent of the problems of tommorrow, the ones which this curent generation of young people will have to deal with in years to come. Young people have the biggest stake in this issue, so they must ensure their voices are heard.
There are also lots of important things that all of us can do to lessen the future impact of climate change by making descisions about the way we live our lives today. We can try to walk, cycle and use public transport more instead of going in the car, for example on the way to school or work, or we can make sure we switch off lights ad appliances when we aren't using them. In this way we all have important descisions to make each day that will impact on the extent of climate change we will experience when we are older.
I hope together we can make a difference.
