We think they wouldn’t do anything different, because the human race is too lazy to change anything. And most people aren’t changing anything now, so why would they do it in the past if they knew what would happen?

But if we could decide what to do, we would probably save on crude oil as good as we can, and we would use renewable energies (like wind, water, sun, tide, geothermic warmth, and so on) as much as we can.

Nature gives us everything we have, therefore we really should care about what’s good for the nature and shouldn’t exploit it.

a) We’d like to have a happy life with a lot of friends and a good education.

b) If we take a look at the problems from the whole world (oil, forest, wildlife, nature) then all people are responsible for the future. We can’t choose it.

But in our situation we think the answer is yes, but just because we have got a good education because we’re at college, we can do every job.

c) The world takes lot of decisions for us, so we think that there are mostly other people who influence us.

a) We like doing sports everyone to his or her own taste. We also like to read a good book or watch a movie. Some of us really enjoy fishing. This is how we get in balance with our everyday life. The nature gives us power and a kind of happiness, which we don’t find somewhere else. Because of the climate change many fishes will die and this hobby will become history. We absolutely detest this imagination.

b) We try to do them in our free time every day because we would miss it. Sometimes we have to pay for it. So, if we don’t have money, we won’t do it.

No, of course not! Especially now we can’t relax! It’s a good signal that the emissions dropped back half in 2008, but if they dropped in such a short time, they can also grow fast and we are on the same point again. We think that it’s easier to continue the dropping than to relax now and later have to solve very big problems. There are still many things, which need to be done. If we would sit back and relax, we would loose, what we love: our nature.

In Switzerland we have about 40’000 native animals, of which 30’000 are insects. There are only 83 mammals. For example lynxes, badgers, marmots, wolves and red foxes. We also have many birds and some owls. There are snakes as well. For example the common viper or the grass snake. Because Switzerland is an inland there aren’t any animals that only occur here. We presume, New Zealand as an island must have more specific animals, than we have here.

Yes there are endangered animals. We know that the beavers, lynxes, some kind of birds for example the little owl and a lot of bats are threatened with extinction. Many predators and many raptors disappeared from Switzerland’s forests. Back in the days they were domestic all over Switzerland. Because of the deforestation and other factors caused by human beings they totally disappeared. Nowadays there are again, for instance, some lynxes and wolves in Switzerland.

We have to change our way of living totally. Big industries or even whole countries would be ruined, for example oil refinery or Iran. Mainly poor countries, which produce oil, would be ruined. We are afraid, it woud be a great mess, because the oil wouldn’t run out in all countries at the same time, so it’s possible that there would be an „Oil War“. Many things wouldn’t work without oil and the sciences had really to work hard in order to find alternatives to oil.
