The question “What is Climate Change?” is something that we ended class discussing and I believe something that is worth expanding on. In class, we came to a consensus that climate change is one of the few things on this earth that can affect every aspect of life (besides dance, of course). We agreed that climate change has a negative affect on everything from ecosystem services and functions to the air we breath. However one thing that we did not put enough emphasis on is its unfair and uneven affect it will have on the people less fortunate than most. The fact of the matter is that those who do not have the money and resources to adapt to the effects of climate change will be affected much more than those who do. Yes, in the next 50 years every single person on this earth will be affected one way or another. However, the extent of who is affected will be unevenly distributed amongst the poor. For example, when the sea continues to rise, cities across the US will begin to flood like Miami and even New York. At the same time, cities across third world countries like Thailand, Indonesia, and Cuba will go under water. The difference between these cities and the ones in the US? Money. Residents of Miami and New York will have access to media and will have the resources to be able to pick up their belongings and move to higher altitude and continue to live their lives. In those third world countries, there will be no one where to go. They will  not have the luxury of just grabbing their things and leaving. Similar to those dystopian pictures in the article It’s Not Climate Change, It’s Everything Change, streets will be flooding, diseases will spread, and yes, people will inevitably die. If there’s one main thing that will change and that we, as privileged college students, should focus on is the state of inequality in an already unequal world.
