Nobody is talking about the real cause of climate change. Our desires are to blame. With the real cause found, we have the opportunity to cure our desires. We still have the time to turn this ship around. When we enter the red zone, it may be too late. Desires may be the root cause of climate change but there are multiple risk factors involved. Any three of these risk factors may collectively cause a tipping point. These risks included population, pollution and fossil fuels. We are primary cause of all three factors and hence the survival of Homo Sapiens, and most other life on Earth. There are many risks involved but only on root cause; the risks are necessary but not sufficient conditions. If you are serious about finding the root cause of climate change, then we need look no further than our wants. Our wants are the principle source of climate change. We are responsible for rising temperatures on Earth through our wants. Our wants for red meat, travel and non-sustainable food sources drive climate change.
