The Devastation Left Behind By Cyclones Around The Globe Are On A Constant Rise

Cyclones

As we  have been able to conclude scientifically, cyclones are increasingly growing in power and frequency as a result of global warming, and we know high CO2 levels cause temperatures to soar and the rise in CO2 levels in our atmosphere are caused by human activities, yet those people and nations who are most responsible for this phonomena, do nothing to remedy the loss of the people whose homes and lives are devestated by these recently manufactured freak storms. We need to start taking some responsibility and collectively pay for the rebuilding of devastated areas. Better yet, we need to get actively involved in preventative measures by reducing our CO2 emissions. It is all of our sesponsibility to take care of one another as we belong to the same human race, and if other's lives and livelyhoods are threatened, ours will surely follow the same fate in a matter of time.
