Non-renewable energy resources such as; oil, coal and natural gas, all cause air pollution and seeing how much people depend on these resources, it doesn’t seem that this problem is ever going to solve itself. Thus, we have to find ways to use alternative resources to fuel or power up the things that depend on these non-renewable resources.

Deforestation allows more carbon dioxide into the air and it lessens oxygen, which creates a lot of illnesses.
Many new severe and fatal sicknesses are being created and other ones which are acting as a serious problem to many more people than 10 years ago. This is all because of the ozone depletion which is letting UV rays reach the earth. UV rays can cause skin to age faster, sunburns, eye cataracts, and skin cancers. The rise in sea levels is linked to thermal expansion; when water heats up it expands and melting of glaciers and ice caps, leading to the migration of species of fauna to search for a better environment to live in.
