Hope

Thanksgiving was just this past week and we have all been contemplating what we are thankful for. During my break from school I got the opportunity to play Halo 4, which was great, but I also read Bill McKibben's book, Eaarth. What I read was disheartening.
In Eaarth, McKibben is very pessimistic about the future of the environment. He says that global warming is destroying the environment faster than people think. According to him, the one degree increase in global temperature is putting our world at risk right now.
Now, I'll be the first person to stand up in defense of the environment. However, I have to disagree with having such a negative outlook on our situation. It is my belief that if we have hope, we can fix anything.
