Being an ecology major in the environmental science program, our countries environmental decisions greatly affect me and my future. I believe that it is Canada’s time to become that powerful leader against climate change, especially with the state that the US is currently in. Since the United States’ government is now primarily made up of Republicans who do not believe in climate change it is critical that Canada keeps its stance against it. Otherwise all the other countries that look to superpowers like the US for guidance will follow their example. I cannot stress enough how crucial it is for Canada to make real changes in the way they address climate change. But this will only be possible through the implementation of strict regulations and policies to reduce emissions. If we do not make drastic changes to convert to 100% renewable energy our environment will collapse and there will be nothing left to protect.
