There are many representatives for the advocating group of global warming. According to the Global Warming Reader, Naomi Klein who is a journalist believes that global warming is occurring. She wants to make a change for the future. Naomi is advocating for direct action. Her plan is to go against the fossil fuels company and attack their businesses. Naomi Klein states that, “there business model is to destroy the planet” (Hurricane Sandy Occupy Sandy Relief: Naomi Klein Interview in Rockaway Park, Queens). She is referring that the fossil fuels companies’ placement is to ruin and destroy the planet. They have declared war on the people advocating for global warming.
            In the article Climate Rage, Todd Stern who is Presidents Obamas chief envoy on climate issues states, “ It’s not a meteor or a space invader, but the damage to our planet, to our community and their children will be just as great” ( Klein 239). Todd Stern is saying that the damages to our planet due to climate change/ global warming will affect our community and children of every generation. The United Nations have also gotten together to discuss the matters of global warming and their plan to help prevent it from happening. One proposal from the advocating group is climate debt. Climate debt is the idea of rich countries paying developing countries for reparations because they suffer most from climate change due to our actions from polluting. Climate debt also involves adapting to a more hostile ecology. The trend that we know today will have to be switched to more expensive technologies.

Hi my name is Naomi and this is a blog about climate debt and global warming.

Climate Debt is very important! What is climate debt you may ask!? Climate Debt is  a theoretical concept which has been submitted to the United Nations by over fifty countries having the richer , and well developed countries pay the developing countries for climate change. Do you agree with climate debt? As for me , I am not very sure as yet. It is yet an idea in progress. Though i can tell you who is siding with climate debt.  Naomi Klein is a bestselling journalist who stands behind this idea and is examining it very close.
