Diversity Event

     I went to the lecture about Christians Views On Climate Change.  The speaker was a pastor from a church in Nebraska but she had also majored in Geology.  She made very good points about how the climate is changing around the world and it's all in a science.  She showed some clips to everybody of people in Congress I believe pulling out the Bible trying to say that global warming isn't happening and that it's not the end of the world.  The people quoting the Bible were talking about the end of the world and that it'll happen in a big way and that the warming and cooling in the world is just a cycle and that we'll get out of this hot cycle soon.  She then showed us graphs about the facts of the weather and what it's like.  Yes, there were cycles of the climate changing but right now according to the graphs we're supposed to be going back into a change were it gets colder but all we've noticed is that the climate is just getting warmer and warmer.
     I did agree with the whole thing that climate change is all in cycles but I didn't know that we're approaching the need to go back down and all the climate is doing is going back up.  It made me understand that we're really in a problem here and we should do something to fix it.  The speaker had a good presentation with the visuals and I liked the video clips and charts because they helped me understand all of what she was explaining.

  1. I also agree, that the problems with the climate aren't natural and that change is drastically needed.
