Supporting and supporting Article 13 of the SDG, which is climate action, is very important for the future of young people in Aruba. The heat and climate problems that we may face in our near future deserve urgent and sustainable attention and action.
One issue that is becoming very important for young people not only in our country but around the world is the issue of the environment and climate action that must be done to ensure a healthy future for young people and children. Sustainability is changes in the model of production that is clean, economical and durable. Changes that can occur in different changes and are structured in the right way. Products and changes that we can take advantage of them for a long time.
The effect of now:
In these recent times we can not only look but more than clearly feel the burning heat that is growing not only in Aruba but all over the world. The climate is not only getting hotter but also setting different things on fire for the simple fact that the world is getting hotter and hotter. The effects not only affect life on land but also marine life where we can begin to observe the shortage of fish and corals that grow in our same waters. Our island depends on its beautiful climate and tropical waters alot in this case as a money generator and the biggest economic pillar that we know which is tourism, we must know how to generate ideas and solutions to defend it so that it is not lost. The drought and the medical problem that this may entail need greater urgency in the national deliberation. The drought perceives that many things cannot grow properly.
Effects of tomorrow:
The effects that this climate problem can cause are obvious, where we can see around us how different climatic ramifications have a greater and dangerous effect for our World and Country, we could see this when we saw different fires and how these effects would continue to grow, that drought would be somewhat more frequent and how the sea water level would rise, an imbalance would arise in our climate on which we could not depend much more, the heat is high and without acting and ignoring these climatic problems, they can grow so big that there are no repairs anymore.
What to do?
As young people we can be more aware of the waste of dirt we make and come up with creative ideas on the sustainability of our country, to have more context we have creative ideas how to upsicle and how to recycle and form other waste in different ways such as Fashion, Art, Product and much more, our creativity and yearn for sustaining our environment must be high and consistent for a true and lasting change to occur. If everyone did a part together we would have a great impact not only in our country but for the whole world. To be open to making changes and transitioning our people in areas of sustainability is a must. Creating “clean” things and recycling can have many benefits for us. Planting in young people may seem unknown but there are some young people who try and grow in the area of planting, which is something we can try to do in our home, the more we plant the more harvest, the more stable we will be on the way to a cleaner, sustainable and cared for world. Taking part in the continuous and positive growth of your country is something of the utmost importance for a sustainable future
How to prevent:
Preventing the negative effects of our current environmental imbalance may feel like impossible but that’s not the case, there are different things we can do to take care of ourselves and others. Hydrating ourselves well and perceiving that we are eating healthy and moving continuously can help our endurance in these warm times. Also to perceive that your pet is also hydrated and cared for in this drought and the imbalance in our environment is an important one. We as young people can start to put more pressure on the use of recyclable or sustainable products and put protection to the sun and much more are certain things that we as young people can do to stop certain effects.
