Dear Future Self,

It’s 2019 and climate change has had a large effect over many people in many different forms. Climate change caused by fossil fuels and Carbon Dioxide Emissions. Scientists believe that climate change has been melting glaciers in the arctic and in Antarctica and causing many natural disasters such as large hurricanes. Recently, the Amazon, the world’s largest rainforest has been burning to increase land for farmers and industrial companies. Sea levels have been rising and coastlines have diminished. Many people still disregard climate change and if we don’t do anything to stop it soon, it will have catastrophic irreversible effects on our planet.
