Delays in combating climate change will be dangerous

The original article can be read here.

This article talks about climate change, and the increasing need to push towards confronting climate change now, as confronting climate change later will be extremely costly, from the report.

The article explains that the future looks very bleak if "business as usual" continues, and if nothing is being done in the form of renewable or non-carbon based energy.

The article cited that many countries are now pushing towards less dependence on carbon based emissions, but have outsourced many of those emissions to growing countries, like China.

Many scientists and contributors to the article believe that if nothing is done in the form of combating climate change in the near future, there is little that can be done to reverse the effects (or at least subsidize them).
