- US President Barack Obama now has a Facebook page. The White House launched the page Monday and used it to send a message on climate change the world.

The Facebook page comes six months after Obama in May started a Twitter account. In his first post on Facebook can see a video message on climate change, in view of the president that makes a walk around the White House. " Hello, I finally have my own Facebook page ", Obama says in the post. " I invite you to take a walk with me in my backyard. Something I'm trying to do at the end of the day for dinner. " In the video Obama calls on Americans to contribute their part in combating climate change. " I want to make sure that the entire world is God given by the beauty of this planet to pass on to future generations ", said Obama, referring to his upcoming trip to Paris for the world climate.

I hope you'll think of this as a place where we can have real conversations about the most important issues facing our country- a place where you can hear directly from me, and share your own thoughts and stories. (You can expect some just-for-fun stuff, too.) I'm kicking it off by inviting you to take a walk with me in my backyard- something I try to do at the end of the day before I head in for dinner. I say this often, but that's Because It's always at the front of my mind: We've got to preserve this beautiful planet of ours for our kids and grandkids. And That Means taking serious steps to address climate change once and for all. Now, we've made a lot of progress to cut carbon pollution here at home, and we're leading the world to take action as well. But we've got to do more. In a few weeks, I'm heading to Paris to meet with world leaders about a global agreement to meet this challenge. I hope you'll join me in speaking out on climate change and educating your friends about why this issue is so important. At a time When nearly three in four online adults use Facebook, this feels like a great place to do it. Share your thoughts in the comments, and pass this message on to folks think you need to see it. If we're all in this together, I'm confident we can solve this and do right by future generations.
