      Yes, each one takes small steps towards protecting the environment, we can still do it 🙂

      Yes, it was agreed in 2015 at the UN Climate Change conference in Paris that we will do our best to keep global temperature below 1.5 degrees, which is considered the safe zone. There is a lot to be done over the next 10 – 30 years to achieve this target, but already we can see positive steps like the EU committing to being carbon neutral by 2050.

      We can reduce our impact but this will take lots of sacrifice and work. A lot of the solutions are already there like insulating our houses and making transport and electricity generation cleaner. It’s mostly a case of funding the right projects and we need our governments and companies to help us do this.
