Venezuela

Male. Age 61, Venezuela

Have you heard of COP15, the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen? [Yes/No]. No!

Do you think that climate change affects you in your daily life? If so how?
Will be if it gets worse, for example, in Venezuela a dry season is expected next year and the dams will have little water, so we are starting a restriction of water supply and electricity from now on.

What do you see as the most severe problems for the climate?
Changes in patterns, but maybe the most problematic will be the warming of the poles and the melting of the ice.

Do you personally feel any responsibility for the climate and are there any things you can do to contribute to a better climate?
Very little I can do, this is world government problem and a circle one, as earth rotates around the Alcion star in 26.000 years with the sun, and we are getting into the fotonic belt.

How do you think our built environment affects climate? What should we change in our built environment to help prevent climate change?
The use of combustion systems adds to the warming effect, clean energy should be the energy of the future.
