Explanation / Answer

Climate change is the most talked subject on earth in recent times, but David Suzuki is very sceptical about the efforts that are taken towards this problem. He points out the greedy nature of the organisations that cut down the trees, disturb natural habitats of animals and birds, contaminate river and sea water etc. He argues that nature has got enough things to satisfy everyone’s need and not everyone’s greed. If the governments and the private organizations know that there is a problem they should act on it. According to Suzuki, people keep talking about it and never act on it. He brings out the influence of money and power in polluting the natural world. He says that this remains a biggest threat to the environment and solving climate change means going back to nature and living one with nature. It’s also about stopping to be greed and being ethical towards treating the nature.
