"Rising Tides" Reader Response

I think the author, Bob Herbert is really correct. We really need to start to save our earth. Herbert have said many example of effects of global warming. Ice melting, sea level rising, permafrost is also melting. The thing I felt most ridicules is the government still not responding to the problem. Government should be the people who announce to the citizens that we shouldn't destroy earth, but themselves were still don't know how to response the problem. They didn't even do their basic job, what are they doing? Actually, same as the citizens. Although the government aren't solving the problem seriously, the people should know that the global warming problem is also because of them,but people are continue ignore it and they even think it is not their problem. Anyhow, almost all the people include the government and even include the each country's president need to think about it.
