I'm proposing we immediately end all government subsidies for fossil fuel companies, it's ridiculous we're still funding them when we know they're destroying the planet. We're basically paying them to contribute to climate change, which is just mad when you think about it. The money we're giving them could be so much better spent on renewable energy sources, like solar and wind power, which are the future anyway.
We need to do this because it's getting to the point where the damage is irreversible, and our kids will be the ones who have to deal with the consequences. I see it every day in my job as a teacher, the kids are so aware of the environment and they're worried, they want us to do something. It's not like we can just magic up a solution, but stopping these subsidies is a start, and it's something we can do now.
