  1. Every home and business should install a rain water collection and storage system along with solar panels. Even in areas where rain is infrequent it is crazy to waste the little rain that does fall and waste it. We need to stop planting green lawns and switch to local native plantings around homes. It is crazy to plant lawns and build golf courses in dry desert areas. We waste too much water and electricity.

  2. The cost of dealing with the impact of Climate Change will be much greater than the cost of dealing with the cause. We must stop adding more fossil fuels to the climate fire. Phase out coal power plants and replace them with wind and solar energy. Individuals, businesses and governments need to be educated about climate change and how they can reduce fossil fuel use.

  3.  @dienar3717  Exactly -- collect the rain water when it rains and store it for use in periods of no rain.

  4. Climate Change is making weather events more extreme. This will impact the worlds food supply. Floods, droughts, fires, excessive heat, snow storms and low water levels in reservoirs and in ground water storage are becoming more common. We must stop adding more fossil fuels to the climate fire. India, China, Brazil, Japan, US, Europe, Indonesia, Canada, Germany and Australia need to do more to reduce use of fossil fuels. They must stop building and financing more coal fossil fuels power plants. Time to go all in on wind and solar energy, battery storage and electric vehicles. Fossil fuels are a bad investment for people and the planet. Investors are divesting from fossil fuels. wind and solar energy investing is growing. The cost of dealing with the impact of climate change will be greater than the cost of reducing the impact. The world population is expected to grow by another billion people. Where will the food come from ?
