The problem with equating climate change theory evolution with flat-Earth theory evolution is that the Earth has always been round, regardless of what early man thought for thousands of years. Climate change is escalating quickly and some analysis show that humankind may be extinct in possibly 100 years if nothing is done to reverse the present trend.
That means that the grandchildren of the Fairview High School student, whose well-written guest opinion was published a couple of weeks ago, will see the end of mankind. The future of our young people is at stake, not ours. We, the rest of us, will have caused this catastrophe that the young will pay for with their lives.
Climate change will not wait while we dither around about whether it is happening or not and making sure “both sides” get their two cents in. Action needs to be taken now to save the future on the planet. The Earth will survive. Humanity will not.Nancy Jones
