Global warming and how it affects the world
Global warming The earth is an amazing planet, but we have done a lot of damage to it. You might ask “how did we do it?” Well it all started when we started choosing cars over walking, and opening factories, and using huge amounts of plastic. Let's look at the most basic things that cause global warming. First plastic. This is the most common one you all can think about. We have been using too much plastic. You see, after you dispose the plastic, it goes to landfills, and it gets blown away into the sea, and it gets exposed to the sun and reflects it, making greenhouse gasses, then those greenhouse gases make the temperature rise.
Now do you care about earth? If so, you are aware of global warming. Global warming is when the greenhouse gases trap too much heat and make the average temperature rise. Like this pic shows here Earth is almost like mars! See how much harm we have done? Now do you care? What if I told you that it's all our fault. You might ask “how did we do that? All we have done is drive cars, and run factories!” well those are the producers of global warming. But you might say,” there are trees to catch carbon dioxide!” but we have cut down trees for roads, paper,buildings,etc. So there are no trees! So, the carbon dioxide goes to the atmosphere causing temperature to rise, also causing climate change. But you might ask “what’s wrong with a few degrees u p? I mean it i s v ery cold around here, so what's
the problem with that?” Well, the problem is, that the water rises, and that causes more floods. And it might cover Australia in 50 or less months. Same with some other countries. Also the number of homeless people will increase! Right now there are 10% of homeless people in the world. No i'm not joking it is 10%, so you better believe it. But if climate change melted ALL the ice, there would be 2x how many homeless people there are today! That's about 4.1 billion h omeless people! All because of climate change. So you might ask ”what can we do about it?” for kids: *share this book with your friends! * don't use hot water *reduce reuse and recycle *Turn off electronic devices when not in use. What grown ups can do * plant more trees If you follow these small steps, we can stop global warming. Start spreading awareness before it's too late, so we can have
a happy world The End
