Combating Climate Change With Collective Action

Climate change is the biggest challenge facing the planet today. If not dealt effectively, it may pose existential threat to the humankind along with other living things. Human activities have been contributing to climate change since the time immemorial. Exploration of coal and other fossil fuels and their widespread use as the source of energy for industrialisation were primarily responsible for the emissions of a huge amount of greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, triggering the process of climate change. The more the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, the quicker and severe the climate change.
