Our emotions
We have different feelings about the topic climate change, anger, responsibility, hope, indifference and sadness.
In a way we are angry because part of it is our fault, but we know that we cannot change a lot as a little dot on this earth. We feel responsibility towards our world and we are absolutely aware of the fact that change is necessary.
Some people should change their way of living and not just say „devil-may-care“.
Our hope is that we can find an alternative energy source without any emissions and bad effects and that this can be converted in all countries.
We think indifference with regard to climate change is a very bad attitude and everybody should feel responsible for what is being done to our environment.
We are sad about the situation we are in and about the bad future prospects as far as this topic is concerned.
