Time Is Running Out

We are running out of time. According to sources backed by the European Union, we are rapidly approaching the 1.5°C tipping point at which the effects of climate change cannot be reversed. With this piece, I hope to evoke feelings of urgency as well as hope, because although we have caused so much damage to our planet already, it is still possible to take steps to improve our situation. I believe it is imperative that we take the necessary steps, both as individuals and as a planet, to preserve our only home, the Earth.
