While forest fires are obviously incredibly dangerous and
have the potential to destroy for-profit crops, homes, and more, dealing with
them and with the other effects of climate change is expensive. 2013 marks the
second subsequent year that the United States has gone above and beyond its
budget for fighting wildfires. In fact, the federal government is now
requesting additional funds from other government organizations. Tragic events
related to climate changes cost the United States a whopping $100 billion last
year, and more problems could be on the horizon if things don’t change for the
better soon.
The really sad thing is that climate changes could be
controlled if humans were not so wasteful and damaging to the environment.
Naperville residents can do their part by reducing energy usage and trying to
be as environmentally concerned as possible.
