Globally, the mean rate of sea level rise increased 50% in the last two decades. In 2017, temperatures have already reached their highest levels in history in some areas, from California to Vietnam. And the past three years were the hottest on record. It may be now not about to save or not to save the planet, but do we have any choice yet?

It is not like we don't have the choice. If we stop burning coal, then it can reduce the rates of global warming by quite a lot. But that is not going to happen anytime soon, as countries such as China and India are refusing to do that. They are arguing that they need cheap power for their population. But they also need to share the burden of saving the planet.
I recently heard that the Chinese are gearing towards using electric cars in their bid to reduce the carbon emission in their atmosphere, Saving the world from global warming is everyone's responsibility and since no country can be forced to reduce their carbon emission.All other efforts are useless cos the people may be trying to put a stop it whiles others are doing a totally different thing.
