Solar energy usage is increasing, with California generating record-breaking electricity during the summer. While solar advancements displace fossil fuels, global temperatures are rising sharply, nearing a dangerous threshold of 1.5 degrees Celsius. This situation leads to predictions of increased natural disasters. Despite the grim outlook, there is a call for persistence and determination in combating climate change, emphasizing human capability to tackle challenging issues and protect the future of life on Earth.
In May, California was producing more than one and a half times the energy it needed with renewable sources alone. If this exponential rate of growth can continue, we will soon live in a very different world.
The world has been rapidly approaching a grim milestone: 1.5 degrees Celsius hotter, on average, than before the Industrial Revolution, leading to bigger and more frequent disasters.
Once we do surpass 1.5 degrees Celsius, scientists predict bigger and more frequent disasters: wildfires, flash floods, hurricanes.
We can do hard things. Where is our tenacity? Where is our fortitude?
