The last session was on Climate change, energy and livelihood. The impact of
climate change is greatest in Asia because 60% of the world population lives
in Asia. The main culpritscausing climate change are 1) Energy (fossils fuels,
because of fossils fuels many industries started and this industries are
causing climate change) 2) Transportation (vehicles leave lot of carbon in the
air and this carbon leads to climate change 3) Buildings ( people are cutting
trees to construct buildings). He has ended the session by quoting the
sentence, We have not inherited the earth from our forefather, we have
borrowed it from our children.
