No, there is very little anything or anyone can do to protect against global warming. The only way is to stop it continuing. To do this we have to stop burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity. We have to move entirely to renewable energy (solar, wind, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal and biofuel), and we have to plant billions of trees.

Who is being affected by global warming?

Everyone is affected by global warming, in some way or another. Coastal areas around the world are threatened by flooding from rising sea levels, and severe storms which can combine with high tides to flood croplands, city suburbs and subways. Countries in Africa are experiencing droughts and famine. North America and Europe suffer from extreme heat waves and extreme winters. Thousands of people have died already just from the heat waves.


Is it too late to fix global warming?

Considering that the warmer temperature is melting the permafrost and releasing huge amounts of methane, the change in sea temperature is changing the climate patterns causing drought, the ocean levels have risen it may well be too late. The best we can hope for is to adjust to a new "normal" that isn't too hard on our species.
