Greater action and viable solutions are needed for the current problems gripping the world's climate, however, sole responsibility should not be placed on the government to find a solution.

Climate change requires a joint effort between all levels of government and individuals; more specifically, emphasis on individual choices.
The government forms only one half of the solution, the other half being you. It seems that most of my peers have forgotten this and don't understand this concept.
