Climate change is happening, even as we type this post and it will still be happening when you will read it. No matter how stern politicians might be with their opinions that climate change and environmental deterioration is all faux news, it will be your loss if you start believing them!

Steps should be taken now to curb human extinction!

Climate change, if left unchecked, could lead to the total annihilation of the human race if nuclear war doesn’t kill us all before that! As per studies conducted by scientists working at NASA and JMA (or the Japanese Meteorological Agency) since the year 1980, our planet has warmed up by almost 0.6 degree Celsius.

It might not seem much but haven’t you noticed the series of bizarre weather patterns all over the globe? Extreme cases of wildfires due to the unbearable heat of the summer, rising sea levels due to the melting of polar ice caps to torrential rain causing floods and typhoons raging chaos over cities – all point towards climate change.

We have to curb the use of fossil fuels today if we want to sustain the earth’s environment in its present condition. The damage we had caused is irreversible but we can put an end to further deterioration by changing our way of life. Renewable sources of energy such as solar power are the answer to all our transportation and energy needs.

Thankfully steps are being taken which can be seen in the following sections where we have shed light on top two promising trends that shows solar panels is the future:

Promising trend 1 – The rise of electric vehicles

Vehicles running on IC engines are responsible for more than twenty-eight per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. This is the reason why futurists, scientists and engineers have been looking for means to put an end to it all by developing electric vehicles that can replace IC engine laden vehicles.

Several companies are now turning their focus on EV development which is promising to say the least. The price of EVs is dropping drastically all over the world which is why, in the very near future, you will be driving one to work without even batting an eye!

Promising trend 2 – The extensive use of solar roof systems and shingles in homes

People have welcomed the idea of solar roof panels and shingles attached to the top of their homes from the day it was introduced to the global masses. Powering your home as well as commercial buildings with solar roof panels and shingles is a great way you can ease the load on the power grid. Less load on the power grid mean s less consumption of fossil fuels by power plants. The result is simple, it curbs the emission of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Conclusion

The facts and trends mentioned above are all indicative of one thing that is for certain – solar power is the future. With the blanket ban on fossil fuel usage is near to become a reality, it is evident that people will have to rely on solar power for their transportation and energy needs. If that is curbed due to bureaucratic reasons, people on top of the food chain will be responsible for the total annihilation of the human race. It is high time that people from all over the globe take climate change seriously and take the necessary steps today!
