A speech to the UN75 Global coversation

My BNC Post
Hello, I am skillful_turtle I believe that there is a way that the more frequent extreme weather events can decrease again this will take time and effort but in the end, it will save lives.
I am here today to raise an opinion on the rising amount of extreme weather events. This rapidly increasing threat is one that has few options thankfully I have come up with a solution.
The 2nd most suitable and easy solution to enforce is shade and trees this however is what I think is the 2nd most suitable. I believe this as the as then we are also protecting the global warming which is causing the which I think is causing these more frequent events I believe this as the types of extreme weather like tsunamis, earthquakes and other events such which are not caused by either a lack of a lack of rain or lack of heat . This means that the hey bro calls all of these more frequent and more harmful events.
So, carrying on the top 3 options I believe should all happen but some more than others.
Storm and cyclone protection as it will save lives, and this is so important. This could be done with naturally sourced items like wood, though that might not be as strong.
Rainwater collection is also another option as we are re-using the water. I know that this could not be done rapidly as you’d need to find a place which collects water and then somehow transport it to be cleaned.
Plant trees and create shade as you will probably know the slabs or concrete absorb heat and so planting trees can lower the temperature. This should be done more often near roads and paths.
My experience with extreme weather is all most nothing as I've only seen a thunderstorm though I have seen wildfires and tsunamis on TV.
The government are in my opinion taking truly little notice though in this situation it is extremely hard to act.
They could:
- Help to plant trees,
- Help other countries to protect their people against extreme weather events,
- Help to collect rainwater and get it cleaned for the poor.
Everyone will get help from one of these actions which should be taken.
My vision for the future is that lots of street have a way of transporting
the water to be cleaned and given to the homeless and poor. There will also be less extreme weather events.
Thank you for reading ,

Thank you for this inspiring final piece! How would countries help others to protect against extreme weather?
I think there are many ways to help countries protect from extreme weather, for example lending to poor countries money, providing international aid, collecting donations, providing food aid, and providing places to shelter those affected.
I think when a country had a destructive extreme weather event, another country come to their aid and bring clothes, safe drinking water, send their army and medical care people to help the first country, or a wealthier country help a poorer country buy extreme weather detection objects to detect destructive storms coming earlier.
Tom thanks for the question
Other countries can help protect by allocating enough funds to everyone who has been affected by the extreme weather giving them support relief aid and medical assistance to the affected ones.
Other countries can assist each and everyone by helping them with what they need in terms of medical health to them
Thanks for reading
Thanks for the question. In my thinking countries should try to help one another in how they are affected by the extreme weather.

hello ,am elated strategy from Kenya . though i have never experienced much of extreme weather i think we as citizens globally should take part in protecting our environment.
the easy way being plants and shade we should encourage people the slogan of cut one tree and plant two,this way we will never experience erosion and land slides .water runoff will be controlled in speed and therefore reducing incidences of floods.
we should reduce carbon emissions by probably using renewable energy .in cases of flood defenses the government should help by building strong flood defenses with water proof materials and locally available such as sand in sacks.
we should also take care of each other as we look for ways to eliminate these extreme weather conditions

Thank you for this final piece. But you have said that we can deal with the extreme weather by use of shades and trees of course because trees provide shading. But my question is what there are some areas you couldn't find this shades as well as trees for example the Northern part of Africa somewhere called Sahara desert it's really dry desert where you couldn't even get a tree to shade in. What then can we do to such places and what do you think people living there can do to prevent extreme weather?
Well, that's a very good question intellectual_stratergy!
I think that if not possible to plant trees then maybe try to create shade and improvise like use cactuses or even build shelters. This means that they could use naturally sourced supplies like wood, plants or even cloths.

Allow me to answer you.
I think the best thing that the other countries can do to help the affected country which has high extreme weather is may be by providing them water resources by may be building boreholes for them. For example those countries experiencing extreme weathers and at the same time located in the desert I think could be helped by at least providing them water. Thank you.

Maybe if they had any spare supplies or other useful wood it could be donated.

Countries can help by sending international aid and can help to by making the other countries to have more information of the extreme weather event or they can help by helping the country evacuate people the area likely to experience extreme weather events.

I agree with you.
Can you say why?
Some people might be suffering in the outbreak of the extreme weather event and there might not be enough hospitals and first aids.
