Climate Change

We are learning to structure.

I enjoyed learning about Climate Change and what it does to our planet.

I found it challenging to put it in my own words.

What is Climate change and what its doing to our planet? The Amazon Rainforest AKA The Earth’s Lungs produces 20% of the Earth’s oxygen and is home to 10% of Earth’s animals and plants. But right now wildfires have gotten out of control and are so big they are visible from space.

Because the Earth is warming up, the sea temperature is warming up and glaciers are melting at an astonishing rate. Unfortunately, lowlands (places that are below sea level) are flooding, destroying homes and leaving people stranded.

Another key reason about climate change is fossil fuels (diesel, coal, petrol, etc). Fossil fuels when burned, are very harmful to the environment and the Earth’s atmosphere. They produce carbon dioxide and other harmful greenhouse gases that trap heat in our planet and atmosphere so it can’t leave.

I think we need to start using renewable energy like electric cars because it is more efficient. We need to stop using fossil fuels. We also need to plant a lot of trees. We need to stop climate change from happening.
