In today's news, the UN reported that last year was the fourth warmest on record. We would like to hear what our Cafestudy members are doing to help slow down climate change. Have you changed your habits recently? Or maybe you are meaning to but haven't got round to it yet? Please let us know!

I try to recycle where possible. I am concerned about plastic. Whether global warming is real or not we have to take care of our planet. I own a very small home. I am continually having to renew, repair and monitor my home. If I don't I just wont have a home in the future. If we don't take care of our planet [ our home] it will get so polluted that we won't have healthy soil to grow food. We won't have protection from the sun because our atmosphere will be cluttered with rubbish. Our seas will be full of plastic and poisons from rotting rubbish. It just makes sense to put back what we take, to replant when we cut down and to tidy up. When there is an event Xmas, New Year, Concerts etc, I a amazed at the amount of rubbish that people leave behind at the end of the event. Don't say "You wouldn't live like that in your own homes", because some people do live like that. Our water also needs to be cleaned not only from diseases but also fro chemicals, antibiotics, steroids, hormones. All these things are now in our water. In the past it wasn't an issue but now it is.
