The Climate Crisis and the Canon

The Climate Crisis refers to the rapid changes in Earth's weather patterns caused mainly by human activities like burning fossil fuels, which increase greenhouse gases. This leads to global warming, rising sea levels, and extreme weather events. The Canon, in this context, is an ongoing set of principles, ethical standards, or cultural guidelines that inform how societies should respond to the crisis—promoting sustainable practices, environmental responsibility, and global cooperation to protect future generations and the planet. Essentially, it underscores the importance of values and policies guiding our efforts to address climate change.
