Everyone is talking about “climate change” but what is climate change actually? Climate change is already happening and is one of the greatest threats the planet is facing; many are taking notice of this problem, and they are trying to stop it. The question is, is it unstoppable?
Over 100 years ago, people worldwide began burning coal and oil for homes, factories, and transportation. Burning these fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide and other green house gases into the atmosphere. These added green house gases have caused the earth to warm more quickly than it has in the past. How much warming has happened? Scientist from around the world tells us that during the past 100 years, the world’s surface air temperature increased. This may not sound like very much change, but even one degree can affect the Earth. Below are some possible solutions we can do as a student.
Possible solutions to this can be: stop indiscriminate throwing of garbages anywhere, decrease the use of vehicles one by one instead we could learn to use public transportation. We could join organizations to help in this problem. We could hold seminars and go into action against this problem.
If we don’t take action quickly imagine what would happen to the Earth’s condition in a few hundred years, what would happen to humans, animals and all living things? We better take care of the earth because a planet like this doesn’t come around everyday. Our earth, our home, comes only once.
