Two weeks ago, representatives from 196 countries arrived in Paris to resolve one of the world's most pressing problems — Climate change. On Saturday, December 12th, the group emerged victorious with the first-ever global accord in the fight against global warming — One that U.S. President Obama hailed as the "turning point for the world" and the "best chance to save the one planet we've got."

        It's a pleasure to be hearing that so many countries have held an emission reduction target that will make the world a safer place. It would be even better if the whole world would join this. Because once they've got the whole world supporting this, it would be easier to make the world a safer place to stay. Small things can create bigger problems. For example, the damage done by nuclear plants and industries is leading to a drop down of the Oxygen in the atmosphere. This also includes other important gases such as Carbon Dioxide. This would have a huge impact on the life of the Earth. Citizens can even take their initiative in helping make the world a safer place, like trying not to consume much electricity and cut the usage of paper. Hopefully, we all will understand about the things that could make irreversible changes and cause harm to our planet and do something to save our planet.
