My country, Indonesia, has horrible disaster in this year. Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia, having floods in 75% of its area and in another area also having floods, soil erosion, and drought in the same time.
Not only Indonesia which having floods. The worst floods also having on Quensland, Australia. And in Florida, USA, there is big storm on there.
on TV news, some iceberg in north pole getting melt down. by seeing this, who should be responsible? what we should do? how to build awareness of our environtment and nature?

This is a very complicated situation. I think every individual of us have a responsibility concerning this. But of course the question is who took the biggest one?
Hmmm... may I propose Government and Industrialist?

We should do something to overcome this phenomena. My be by stop using product which is not environment-friendly product and technology.
But to make a good great impact we should have a good bargaining position with government. May be we can join green-peace or some-kind.

If these disasters are caused by global warming; every individual who uses electricity, any type of engine, or anything that was mass produced is responsible.
As individuals we need to do our part and we need to push our governments to do their part. Government and business will not change their ways unless we push them to do so.

I have heard different reports on this situation as many people and experts believe it is our fault for global warming and the way the climate is now a days. It is the way we are treating our environment or the lack of treatment. The things that we do now is causing these bad storms and other things. Other people say it is just a climate shift and that it is not our fault as this would have happened eventually anyways. I think we are responsible as we are not careful about what we do and the way we abuse our environment and resources. We have to continue recycling and not use all of our resources.

I think there is no time for us to think of who is to blame for this disaster. Global warming has been a problem since 80's and Gore is one of the man few man who is aware of this and been trying to make us aware too.
The best way here is to make the changes first from ourselves cause this responsibility are place not just to offficials but in every human being living in this planet.
we are the one who are using this Earth and we should be the one to clean the mess.

There's no one responsible but all of us. We are inhabitants and all of us has the responsibility of protecting our mother earth. I hope that everyone is aware of their surroundings. Everybody can contirbute even in their own little ways. Just don't be selfish, we only share one earth and this earth must be protected by us!
