I shall examine both points of view and outline potential solutions.  To commence with, it is believed that the personal sacrifice of citizens cannot be the solution to address the ecological crisis.

For example

, a tremendous amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which cause global warming, are released into the atmosphere in the process of burning coal and other fossil fuels which are still significant sources of energy in many countries. Renewable sources are the solution to

this

problem but these are governments, who finance the construction of wind farms or solar panels.

Thus

, it is seen, that individual citizens cannot help in

this

manner.

Conversely

, each of us can or even should contribute to the fight against

climate

change.

In particular

, it is essential for societies to reduce waste production and segregate rubbish. Dumping grounds and litter in oceans and seas are caused mostly by individuals, so we should take steps to change it.

Additionally

, citizens should make adamant demands on politicians for more urgent actions to address

climate

changes. It can be done, by choosing ecological parties during elections or writing petitions. As we can see, individuals can

also

take some steps to deal with environmental issues. In conclusion,

climate

change is an urgent problem that demands collective efforts both from governments and societies. In my opinion, the biggest responsibility lies with the authorities

however

, everyone as an individual can

also

take action to safeguard Mother Earth for future generations.
