Professor Rocha continued her presentation on Day 2.

The sources are not inexhaustible, and our excessive consumption leads 
to light pollution, water and air pollution, sound pollution, reduction 
of biodiversity, spread of diseases, rising sea levels, global warming,
extreme weather, disappearance of smaller poor island states, lack of 
living space and migration crises. We are witnessing all this today.
She pointed out that we should never live in this kind of future, 
and the only solutions are urgent interventions in the form of 
mitigation of climate change and adaptation to it, and the return of the
balance of life on Earth.

 

Although we have been inundated with information about climate change 
for many years, the level of our activities is insufficient.
She referred to the IPPC report from 2022, which emphasized the 
importance of the activities of all the countries of the world because 
the atmosphere has no boundaries and individual action is not enough, 
and climate change is growing exponentially.
Therefore, the role of the teacher, as a transmitter of the conclusions 
of scientific research, is of exceptional importance.
