Question

1. Name and discuss three reasons why it has been politically difficult to address climate change?

Answer 1

Three reasons why it has been politically difficult to address climate change are-

1. Time problem-

There are certain time lags in the climate change that happens due to the late responses to the actions. It’s a natural process and it apparently takes time to respond to particular actions taken. This is one of the reasons that cause the difficulty in assessing the climate change.

2. Area problem-

There are different regions geographically and the actions taken for a particular area can’t affect any other area. Even if it does, the effects will not be seen as satisfactory. The risks will arise due to that that will anyway harm the environment further.

3. Accumulative Contribution-

The problem of climate change is huge and thus the contribution of each and every country is required to access the solution regarding the same. One country or one government can solve the problem on their own. The support from all over the globe is necessary and required.

These are some of the reasons that make it politically difficult to answer the climate change even when government tries to work in the same direction, it can’t always have a positive impact over this. Thus, making it difficult for them to answer the claims.
