Global Warming is a term used to describe an increase in average temperature of Earth’s surface, Atmosphere and oceans. Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emits into the atmosphere, also caused by burning of fossil fuel and deforestation. Average temperature around the world has increased by 0.75 Celsius. in past 100 years. David G Victor said in his book that global temperature around the world has been increasing rapidly. In the past decade, the global temperature has increased by 1 degree Celsius, due to human activities such as using fossil fuel which emits carbon dioxide in to the earth’s atmosphere. There are many ways to prevent or stop the global warming. One of the easiest …show more content…
One of the easiest way to mitigate climate change is to stop deforestation, meaning we should plant more trees than cutting them. Planting more trees reduces the amount of carbon dioxide present in the atmosphere. The other easy way to help reduce climate change is walk or bike to places rather than talking cars or public transportation. Transportation vehicles produces about 1.7 billion tons of carbon dioxide per year. Using renewable energy such as solar power and electric cars. Being energy efficient by using LED bulbs, turning off lights, T.V or computer when not using them. There were several solutions proposed to solve global warming. One of the proposal was to reduce the amount of fossil fuel to create electricity, instead use nuclear power plants to produce electricity since nuclear power emits little to no carbon dioxide. The other proposal was to use electric cars instead of gasoline powered cars since gasoline powered cars emits 1 billion tons of carbon dioxide per …show more content…
Such as planting more trees, walking or biking to work or places nearby rather than driving everywhere. Turing off electronic devices when not needed. If possible investing in solar panels or buying an energy efficient cars. I know many people thinks that it wouldn’t make any difference since I am the only one doing it. If everyone does small things it will make a big impact. I believe people helping as much as they can be the key to reduce global warming. Small steps always make the biggest
