What's being done about extreme drought? New technology is helping to detect and respond to catastrophic wildfires sooner. In Spain, officials are utilizing 1,000-year-old technology to cope with a historic drought.

Replacing dirty energy sources with clean, technologically advanced, renewable energy sources can help cool our planet. We can all help by installing solar panels, choosing an electric vehicle for our next automobile purchase, and trading old HVAC systems for heat pumps.

Wow who would have thought that in order to help clean up the mess caused by Capitalism and consumption, all I need to do is wait for new technology and consume more. Probably nothing else that can or should be done by the Government of Brazil.
