It is important to understand that there is no one solution to global warming. A variety of strategies must be used in order to efficiently reduce greenhouse gas emission and resolve global warming over a long period of time.
Boosting energy efficiency: The energy used to power, heat, and cool our homes is one of the largest causes of global warming. New energy efficiency technologies provide us with the ability to use less energy to get the same result. This approach has enormous potential to save energy, and can be implemented extremely quickly.
Greening transportation: Emissions from the transportation sectors have increased at the fastest rate when compared with all other energy-using sectors over in the past decade. In order to resolve this problem, we have a large number of possible solutions available to us. One of the main solution possibilities is improving efficiency of all mass transportation systems.
Using more renewable sources of energy: Renewable energy sources such as solar energy and bio-energy are available all around the world in many countries. Large numbers of studies have shown that renewable energy sources have …show more content…
According to recent studies conducted by the UN, recent world population projections indicate that by 2050 the world population will be a total of 9.7 billion (Bernstein, 2016). China and India are the two largest countries in the world, each with more than 1 billion people, representing 19% and 18% of the world’s population, respectively (Bernstein, 2016). Africa has the highest rate of population growth, and will account for more than half of the world’s population growth between 2015 and 2050. By 2050, six countries are expected to exceed a population of 300 million including; China, India, Indonesia, Nigeria, Pakistan, and the USA (Hongbo,
