USA watched and sold the UK some warships which were
finally paid for in 2001 (I think)

A: I personally think we are past the prevention or reduction stage ~ if ever there was one ~ and that now the key activities need to be things like mitigation, risk reduction, disaster management, and community empowerment - especially those that are vulnerable.

Q: Will there ever be wireless electricity?

Google "climate change/definition":
"noun: climate change; plural noun: climate changes. a change in global or regional climate patterns, in particular a change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels."

Then you believe that climate change is most probably triggered by human activity rather than by natural causes. Is that correct?

If you have "no knowledge" about this subject, are you hoping to get "knowledge" here from the people on this forum?

My thought ...
Instead of focusing on trying to leave our planet better for our children, maybe we should focus on trying to leave better children for our planet?

Half kidding 😕

I'm half wondering why you think this has to be an Either-Or choice. Why the word "instead"?
