みんなの力でCO2の排出を抑制し、地球温暖化を防ぎましょう。これ以上のCO2排出はするべきではありません。しかし、全くゼロにはできません。だから現在出している排出量を少しでも多く削減し、次の世代により多くの負担させることのないようにしなければなりません。
私が生まれた高度成長期にも様々な公害が発生し、大きな社会問題となりました。現在は1990年に比べても2009年までの間に、我が国ではインターネットは普及し、家庭に、オフィスに様々な電気製品が普及して暮らしは便利になる一方、原発は地震で操業を停止し、代わりに火力発電所がフル稼働してCO2が排出される環境はますます増大してきたのですから、ここで食い止めなければ私たちの子ども達の未来はさらに悲惨な者になることは確実です。
今こそ日本はこれまでの英知を結集し、自然エネルギーを有効活用して環境保護の先頭に立つべき時が来たのです。
