Reflection to “the rules of the game”

It is the reflection to “the rules of the game”. A question is coming out after I read ‘Recent surveys show that people without children may care more about climate change than those with children. It is an interesting question, why is it? What I believe people with children should care more about their kids, the atmosphere when they grow up. Don’t the parents care about their next generation?

NO, I think they care about it. However, I feel they only care about what in front of them. Give them better living standard at this moment. Provide the best things they can supply. Or they may believe climate changes can be recovered in the coming generation as the technology is still developing.

It is very true when the article mentions about “changing attitudes towards climate change is not like selling a particular brand of soup- it’s like convincing someone to use soap in the first place.” Like our project, promoting green education is like “convincing someone to use soap”. It’s easy to promote a product or a design idea, but the hardest thing is how to put it into practice. It is because it’s hard to change one’s mind as we are individual. Or if they really catch what it is, can anyone guarantee how long the idea can be lasted in people’s mind? That’s the reason why education is always needed. Through education, people can receive information slowly and continuously, then the image can punch into their minds deeply. It is why we believe we have to communicate the youth.
