Globle Climate Change

Last week, we talked about how to decrease the damages to our biosphere. As a result of human activities, global climate change is becoming problematic not only to humans but to all living things. It makes the ozone layer thinner and the temperature on our earth becomes warmer because the energy from sun is kept in earth by the atmosphere. What can we do about the global climate change? The decrease in producing CO2 would be a good idea; most of CO2 are produced by burning fossil. In our daily life, vehicles, factories and power stations all produce CO2 and other greenhouse gases. Such gases have shown to trap warm air in the Earth’s atmosphere. Many climate scientists believe that these gases are responsible at least in part for rising temperatures on Earth. We can help to decrease producing CO2 in our every day life, such as to walk or ride bike to school/work instead of driving. Some scientists studied about the recent wild fires in California which confirmed that large fires produce large amounts of CO2 as much as California’s motor vehicle traffic does in a year. Also, to save the energy power of electronics in the household can help us lower the temperature of our earth. It’s helpful to decrease the produce of CO2 if you have a lot of plants in your room and yard as well.
