Cost of Inaction

We always hear about how there are negative effects to global warming. But what exactly are they? Not many people know that this problem will not only affect the world they live in, but how they live in that world. This problem will also be affecting their wallets. A recently released report says, “Washington, Oregon and New Mexico will probably face associated annual costs of $3.8 billion, $3.3 billion and $3.2 billion by 2020.”  That would mean about $1250 per household in Washington. It’s almost unbelievable. People are coonstantly hearing about how the earth will be effected but we don’t stop to think about how personally our lives will change. If peope were more informed and realized that this will literally cost them,  they would feel more inclined to change their life styles. I believe we still neeed to do more to reach out to people. That way we can help to stop and solve this problem before we have to pay the price.
