Have you heard about global warming? This is certainly a common issue among us. Climate change and other extreme conditions makes the earth become heater than before. If this condition allowed to happen without our action, it will give bad impacts for our life.
Many living things become decline and extinct. It is so worrying, right? there are many extinct living things in this earth, for example, polar bears. this is because global warming makes the ice at the poles become melted, it also results in the increase in sea water volume that could impact the flood and drowned some areas that are marginalized.
Beside of some impacts that already mentioned above, as we know economy is a biggest issue that happen among us. It is a crucial thing that needs special attention. Economy is a vital component that has unstable condition. Why I said unstable condition? It is because its condition can down and up suddenly. So, what the relation between global warming and economy? First, global warming will give climate change that very significant and then it will influence the environment. Like we already known before the environment is the biggest component of economy because the environment became the primary source of all economy activities.
Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is the sum of the value of goods and services produced in a period in a country. GDP is also often used as one measure to assess the economic conditions of a country. Quoted from TIME, the impact of global warming is known to reduce world GDP. In fact, in the year 2100 later estimated world GDP will decline by 23 percent. This is so danger, right? So, what we can do?
We can focus on the environment life supports, there are three components of that. They are clean air, water, and stable climate. Here we focus on stable climate because unstable climate will affect more extreme events. Not only that there will be disruption in some activities. It is bad right? so, please be aware. If the environment is healthy, it means the economy will be healthy too. so, what you are waiting for, let's do it. Start from tiny things for tremendous change. Together we can change climate change.
