Introduction
In my first blog post, I wrote about the Fairphone, a sustainable phone that is designed to last. In this post, I want to delve deeper into the issue of climate change and discuss the small actions we can all take to make a big difference.
The Climate Change Crisis
As Oscar Stembridge stated on December 10th, 2021:
“Climate change is the biggest crisis our planet is facing and all of us have to take the necessary actions to help.”
The effects of climate change are already being felt around the world, with rising temperatures and more frequent natural disasters. It’s essential that we take action now before it’s too late.
