“We regard the recent science –based consensual reports that climate change is, to a large extend, caused by human
activities that emit green houses as tenable, Such activities range from air traffic, with a global reach over industrial
belts and urban conglomerations to local small, scale energy use for heating homes and mowing lawns. This means
that effective climate strategies inevitably also require action all the way from global to local levels. Since the majority
of those activities originate at the local level and involve individual action, however, climate strategies must literally
begin at home to hit home.”
