Transport a big factor in global warming


GLOBAL warming is at the worst it has ever been. Sadly, few Malaysians are paying serious attention to the matter. In countries like the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, protests are organised on a large scale and play a big role in raising awareness of the issue among the population.

Just two months ago, more than six million people across the world joined a global demonstration to protest against climate change in their home country. More than one million Italian citizens took to the streets, while Spain and the Netherlands reported more than 3.5% of their population joining the demonstrations. And in Australia, thousands of school students walked out of their classrooms and onto the streets to kick off a global strike on Sept 20 (pic, Bloomberg).
